This charming property, situated in the heart of Suffolk in the village of Debenham, is the perfect countryside retreat for two – and the dog, of course! Sleeping you both in a stunning four-poster double bed with plenty of space for the pup to snooze, this cottage dates back to 1480 and is filled with original features. Spend the afternoon exploring Framlingham Castle (8.5 miles) before returning home and cooking a delicious meal in the stunning farmhouse-style kitchen that features a Rangemaster cooker.
The property, which was once one large house but has since been split into three cottages, is cosy and inviting. The spacious kitchen is fresh and bright with a delightful wooden table to enjoy meals at, while exposed beams and neutral decor in the lounge beckon you to sink into the sofa in front of the wood burner, the pup curled up by your feet. A large walk-in shower awaits in the shower room that’s decorated in a nautical style. Up the characterful winding wooden staircase, you’ll find the fantastic bedroom; a four-poster bed invites you in among high vaulted ceilings, exposed beams and peaceful tones to help you drift off to sleep. In the morning, head out to the private garden with the dog and enjoy your morning coffee at the bistro table.
Debenham is a beautiful village, with streets lined with timber-framed houses and a delightful parish church. Enjoy lunch in the dog-friendly pub across the road before heading out to explore. Take a ride on the Mid-Suffolk Light Railway (4.5 miles) and explore the museum. Dogs are also welcome to explore the 245 acres of Sutton Hoo (15.5 miles) which is well worth a visit if you love history. Ipswich is only 13.5 miles away and you’ll find plenty of shopping and dining opportunities here.
