The open plan layout makes great use of space and natural light while retaining its warm and quirky character, the cottage is ideally suited to a young family or a couple looking for a romantic getaway.

Situated atop a hill on a quiet street with rural views over a lovely garden, the cottage provides a wonderful escape from the hustle and bustle in a uniquely Lavenham style.
