A beautiful sunset over the river met us on our first evening. The cottage was perfect for the two of us and our elderly dog who loved the enclosed garden.

We had a very pleasant stay. The dogs loved the extra long garden and in the summer it would be lovely just to sit and relax by the river. The cottage was well equipped, plenty of sofas/chairs and a lovely big TV on the first floor

We recently stayed at Lowlands Barn Annexe with our two children and two dogs. The annexe well appointed, comfortable and is in a beautiful spot on the Waveney River. Its also very conveniently located close to Bungay and Beccles, with other attractions close by. Back to the river there is an enclosed area at the back of the annexe (perfect for theRead more dogs) leading into a larger area backing into the river. Other than being extremely tranquil and scenic, our boys spent many happy hours fishing in the river, and caught fish every day, including chub, rudd, roach and perch. Phil and Linda were very welcoming and provided some invaluable local knowledge on the local area, and more importantly how to fish the river. Well certainly be returning! Thank you for having us!

The location is just outside Bungay. The hosts were welcoming and charming. The garden is spacious with the River Waveney at the bottom. The first part of the garden is fenced off in order to restrain pets. With a shower room both upstairs and downstairs the cottage is most suitable for a party of 4 people.
