Set between the River Alde and Rendlesham Forest, Sudbourne offers a slice of rural Suffolk serenity –perfect for walkies with your furry pal. Stay with friends or family at this characterful home that's bursting with rustic charm, complemented by a rambling cottage garden where a couple of canine companions are welcome to join you.
The heart of the home is the spacious open-plan kitchen and dining area, with a gorgeous marble island, top-notch appliances, and everything you need to whip up a feast. Gather around the large farmhouse table, and on warm days, throw open the French doors to dine outdoors. The lounge is made for slow evenings in with a wood burner in a grand inglenook fireplace, timber beams overhead, and a flagstone floor for tired paws to flop down on. There's also a reading nook just off the lounge with a library of books and a desk space for remote working. On the ground floor, you’ll also find a double bedroom with views across the garden, plus an en-suite Jack and Jill shower room. Upstairs, there’s a king-size bedroom with distant river views, another double, and a cosy twin that’s ideal for little ones. A stylish family bathroom serves these rooms. Step outside, and you'll find a garden that's practically a nature reserve. There’s a wildflower patch alive with colour, an orchard, and an oak tree with a bench for peaceful moments. The lawn awaits for lounging, outdoor games, or a picnic while your loyal companion investigates every scent. Private parking for two cars is provided.
2 miles away, the village of Orford is a must-visit, with its 12th-century castle keeping watch over quaint streets, dog-friendly pubs, and a lovely local bakery. Keen sniffers will also love the trails through Rendlesham Forest (6 miles), with cycle routes, picnic spots, and plenty of paths for bounding buddies to enjoy.
