Tucked down a quiet country lane and surrounded by unspoilt landscapes, this traditional Suffolk cottage is a dreamy escape for nature lovers and their faithful canine companions. With a crackling wood burner in the cosy lounge and an enclosed, private garden, it’s the perfect base for ramblers, cyclists, and dog walkers looking to explore the best of the Suffolk Coast and Heaths National Landscape.
Your semi-detached holiday home is accessed via a single-track lane shared with a neighbour. Inside, you’ll find a bright, well-equipped kitchen with everything you need for dinnertime. From here, the homely lounge/diner invites you to relax after a day’s exploring, with comfortable sofas, a wooden dining table for six, and French doors leading out into the garden so Rover can come and go. Rustic beams and thoughtful touches add character, such as a lovely wood burner. There’s a downstairs shower room, while upstairs, you'll find the main family bathroom and three inviting bedrooms – two doubles and one small double – each styled in calming tones with countryside views. Head outside, and you'll find a pretty garden with outdoor furniture for al fresco breakfasts or stargazing under the famously dark Suffolk skies. There's parking for up to three cars on the private driveway.
Less than a mile away, the village of Dunwich beckons with its vast shingle beach. Stop off at the dog-friendly local pub and enjoy fresh seafood or a drink in the garden. Explore Dunwich Heath and Beach Nature Reserve, managed by the National Trust. With red deer and rare birds of prey, it’s a peaceful paradise for both humans and their four-pawed pals. The Suffolk Coast Path offers lovely walks, while Southwold is 6.5 miles away.
