  • Mr Goodall

    Good location being close to the river, lots of walks in the vicinity whilst easy access to Ipswich. The cottage was very well equipped. Comfortable bed and plenty of room for 2 whilst the welcome hamper and flowers were very much appreciated. Anna was very welcoming and helpful in making recommendations for places to visit. Would highly recommend and would have no hesitation in returning.

  • Mrs Coath

    Beautiful cottage in lovely location. The cottage is so well equipped and very comfortable with a lovely garden around it. Very dog friendly and very welcoming hosts. The very generous welcome pack was very gratefully received after a long way journey.

  • Mrs Brown

    Friendly and helpful hosts who provided every comfort and good supporting information. A warm cosy cottage in a rural location but with interesting restaurants and pubs within a short drive (or a nice walk for those fitter than me). Planning a return with family to make use of the other two rooms.
