A treat of a retreat for two, this charming bolthole is the perfect base from which to unwind. And with Fido welcome too, no one needs to be left behind. Set within spectacular rural scenery in the heart of the Suffolk countryside, you can sit back and enjoy tranquil views of the garden and the paddock beyond from either the lounge or the patio - it is picture postcard pretty.

Benefitting from a recent renovation, this charming abode offers the best of indoor-outdoor living. The kitchen is bright, well equipped and modern, perfect for a self-catered stay, whilst the breakfast bar offers the ideal place to perch for an intimate meal or social glass of wine. Cast open the French doors and sink back into the sofa making the lush, lawned garden a part of the decor; the dog can stretch his legs while you relax. Come bedtime, retire to the attractive king-size bedroom which features a cosy reading nook. Here, you’ll also find a separate shower room. Outside, the secluded patio provides the perfect opportunity to dine alfresco and take in the wonderful scenery.

Located down a peaceful country track, this brick barn property is well-placed for anyone wanting to explore the rich heritage and beautiful landscape of Suffolk’s countryside and coast. From here, you can easily access footpaths and rove with Rover across heathland, forests and fields, as well as coastal terrain. The conveniences of Friston village are 2 miles away, whilst Aldeburgh and Thorpeness on the coast can be reached within 4 miles.

Very comfortable, compact place to stay. Lovely setting. Conveniently sited to visit Alburgh, Snape and Saxmundham. Lots of info about walks and visits, though we could find no info about the cottage itself during our stay. Internet was not working for entire stay.

We enjoy the stay in The Stables with our small dog. It is very secluded and tucked away inside the farmland yet can reach to nearby town and supermarket in 10-15 mins drive. We love the decor and style of the cottage which made our stay very pleasant. We will come back again.

Lovely cosy property. Caters for all your needs. Bed was extremely comfortable. We went in February 2024 and it rained most days but in the summer it would be lovely to be able to just sit on the patio and look at the view. Very tranquil and so quiet. Lovely!

Property in convenient situation, gardens and outlook lovely and secure for a dog. Very small property had to move wardrobe to access bed each night. Not suitable for someone with limited mobility even though on one level wooden door thresholds trip hazard as I did many times.

Ideally located for the coastal villages of Aldeburgh, Thorpness and Sizewell. We found lots of places to visit within a 10-15 mile radius of this cottage. Which was great, we had a long journey to Suffolk so didn't want to spend the week driving long distances. We found some lovely places to eat our favourite The Ship at Dunwich. The cottage is Read morevery comfortable but it is small e.g bedroom size and bed, fine for us we are both small. We have an elderly spaniel that doesn't wander off, the gate to the drive did close, but the other gates didn't into the fields, so not really suitable dogs with a tendancy to run off. Hide
