Property code: OC-ROSC

This luxurious couples’ retreat offers a chance to enjoy a rural getaway with your canine companion while surrounded by stylish furnishings and modern comforts. Visit Suffolk’s picturesque country villages and buzzy coastal resorts from your base in the tranquil village of Middleton.

Get that Scandi-modern feeling in this delightful single-storey converted barn featuring neutral hues and a calming atmosphere. The entrance is through a shared hall and then you’ll come into your own, private space, where contemporary seating and an impressive wood burner combine to create a lounge that’s fresh, airy and comfortable. The kitchen/diner has the same feel, beautifully designed and with a boiling-water tap and coffee machine. A great holiday is all about a good night’s sleep, and the double bedroom offers mood lighting and a lovely upholstered bed, while its bright bathroom is a super space for freshening up or a long soak in the bath. Outside, a bistro table and chairs are perched within a shared grassy area that overlooks a wildflower meadow, and beyond is a further grassed area that’s a perfect spot for your furry friend to enjoy a frolic.

The cottage is set in Middleton, just 500 metres from a historic, dog-friendly pub where you can find locally sourced food and a traditional pint (or a variety of wines). Grab the lead and explore the fabulous range of walks straight from your front door – you may also wish to visit the local farm shop and cafe, just 0.5 miles away. In the market town of Saxmundham, 6 miles, you’ll find a vibrant high street with independent shops and great places to eat, and atmospheric Dunwich is 4 miles, with its pebble beach and ruined medieval friary. For days at the seaside, head to the popular resorts of Southwold, 10.5 miles, or Walberswick, 11.5 miles.

The cottage is located in a very quiet position. It was excellently equipped and had all the creature comforts we needed. We chose the cottage because of its proximity to RSPB Minsmere but is also ideally placed for exploring the local towns and countryside. It is certainly a cottage we would happily book again in the future.

Lovely modern well equipped cottage located in the pretty village of Middleton, and in easy driving distance from the key coastal towns. Difficult to fault the cottage - it has everything you need and decorated to a high standard. Sky Sports was also nice for the F1. Unfortunately our dog was scared of the sheep so didn't use the garden too much buRead moret it's a nice space for braver dogs! The pub is also lovely with food at weekends, a gentle 10 minute walk away. Hide

What a beautiful cottage in a wonderful location. We had a great week with a slower pace of life, surrounded by beautiful countryside. We explored some of the surrounding areas too. Great value for money and the EV charging point was an added bonus.

Spacious and tasteful accommodation in a tranquil location. Kitchen and bedroom overlooked a beautiful wildflower back garden where you can sit and drink coffee among the butterflies. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom worked well but the living room sofa was uncomfortable and there was no alternative seating. Fortunately we did not spend mucRead moreh time there. The kitchen was reasonably well equipped (if you like induction hobs) except for some shortage of cutlery and cups. There is an EV charge point in the parking area but we were unable to find out how to use it - a shame, as it would have been very convenient for recharging for the return journey. A nice touch was a vase of fresh flowers and a welcome pack of snacks, milk, etc. on arrival. Altogether, a very good base for exploring Suffolk. Hide

This cottage, one of a pair, is perfectly located on the edge of Middleton village for exploring the area. We took the opportunity to cycle on empty country lanes, stopping to either admire the view or buy produce from numerous honesty boxes. The cottage is very comfortable and exceptionally quiet. We would definitely consider returning.

Lovely cottage, perfect rural position but the pub is only 15 minutes walk away. The Bell Inn serves good food but best to book to ensure they are serving food on the night you require. Mill street narrow road with passing places but very quiet. A great location. Very relaxing.
