Mr Mitchell
A very well fitted-out conversion of a stable, in a modern, but cottagy style. The location, around 600 yards from the main road, makes it a very quiet and peaceful place, even though it is only a short drive to Sudbury and shops. The approach up a long farm track is well maintained and not difficult at all to drive along, certainly no trouble for us, but a rather more prominent sign or marker would be appreciated at the entrance to the track. The accommodation is warm and well heated, everything being electric. The Wi-Fi is fast and worked perfectly throughout our stay. For those worrying about farm and country smells, the area is virtually all arable farming, and judging by the fields, Suffolk must be the Bread Basket of Britain ! There is plenty to see and do in Suffolk, this was our third visit, so too much to list, but don't miss Lavenham, only a few miles away. Just driving round the countryside is a delight on its own !

A lovely high quality cottage in a picture perfect location. Super comfortable and close to many attractions and places to eat. Nearby Lavenham is a must visit village. The owner is very helpful and responsive.

Excellent conversion, very clean, stable wif and all amenities you would need. It's a great location (note, very isolated and quiet. With a rough track to the building). Will likely use again. Owners were polite and building well equipped. Highly recommend.
