"Absolutely fabulous Cottage and location.! this is our second visit and I’m certain there will be a third" - Carey Ravden

Escape to this immaculately presented property with stunning grounds, situated 1 mile from the Sotterley Estate. Well-suited to a small dog-owning family or friendship group craving tranquil surroundings, it offers the convenience of having popular attractions within reach. Complete with hand-crafted design features, picture windows and a delightful terrace, the property’s wow factor cannot be understated.

Homely, modern, traditional, bright and airy are all words which can be used to describe the property’s wonderful, eclectic interior, with each room offering a unique feast for the senses thanks to a sympathetic colour palette. The view from the picture windows in the sitting room is a sight to behold, whatever the time of year. You will find it hard to stay away from the kitchen/diner between meals – its open, inviting layout is perfect for family socials. An en-suite king-size bedroom with a four-poster bed and underfloor heating stands just off the kitchen, with further underfloor heating in the ground floor’s family bathroom, complete with a slipper bath and TV. A single flight of stairs leads to a second king-size bedroom with a sleigh bed, this one found beneath the rafters. Head out of the kitchen’s French doors to enjoy the terrace, the perfect spot for al fresco lunches and BBQs, with plenty of room on the lawn for children and dogs to play.

Sotterley Estate (1 mile) offers over 400 acres of woodland ripe for exploration. The market town of Beccles (5.5 miles) offers an array of dog-friendly shops, pubs and eateries, and it’s a similar story in Southwold (7.5 miles), one of the most picturesque areas in the Suffolk Coast AONB. Dogs are also welcome to explore numerous other attractions, including Henstead Exotic Gardens (4 miles).

Lovely cottage near Southwold and even better in our opinion, Walberswick. Well supplied with equipment. Bath not the most accessible and cottage probably best for 2 couples rather than a family. You will need to be prepared to drive as there is nowhere within walking distance but this clear on the cottage instructions. We spent 2 days in WalberswiRead moreck which has everything and more for a beach friendly family day out. Look up the history of the village before you go. Hide

The Granary is very well refurbished, furnished and equipped. We visited in April and some evenings were chilly but the heating was very efficient and the hot water was plentiful. The beds are very comfortable with lovely linen. There are plenty of things to see and do in the area and Southwold is a 20 minute drive. It is a very peaceful placRead moree to stay. We had a very relaxing break and would certainly recommend The Granary. Hide

Cosy cosy cottage which makes you relax. Loved it! Kitchen is so well equipped, you dont need to bring anything except cooking things (even salt and pepper are provided), unlike me who brought the kitchen sink! Hairdryer provided as well. If you dont mind a 10 min drive to amenities (beach etc) you definitely wont be disappointed with The Granary.

On arrival we received a warm welcome from the cottage owner, he kindly called to let us know that the property was ready and we could arrive early as it was ready for us. The cottage is beautiful and set in a perfect tranquil location, we felt at home straight away and was very grateful for the welcome gifts left for us. The bed was so comfortRead moreable and all the amenities in the home was top quality, we wanted for nothing. We had a relaxing peaceful holiday and hope to visit again sometime soon. Thank you Hide
