About this property
Nestled in the heart of Suffolk, Debenham is a quintessential English village that offers a tranquil escape from the hustle and bustle of city life. In this charming village, you can meander along picturesque streets lined with historic timber-framed houses, visit the beautiful parish church and enjoy a leisurely meal at one of the cosy local pubs. The surrounding area provides opportunities for exploring the Suffolk countryside, with scenic walks and cycling routes through lush farmland and ancient woodlands whilst nearby attractions include Kentwell Hall, a stately home with stunning gardens, and the market town of Framlingham, known for its imposing castle. History enthusiasts can delve into the past at the Museum of East Anglian Life in nearby Stowmarket too. Debenham and its surroundings are perfect for those seeking a peaceful retreat in the heart of Suffolk, where history, nature, and village charm harmoniously coexist. Quaint and quintessential, this characterful cottage dates back to 1480 and is brimming with original features throughout. Once a larger house that has now been split into three cottages, this pretty home is generous for two guests looking for a romantic countryside getaway.
Step inside and you are welcomed into the sitting room which has large inglenook fireplace with roaring wood burner keeping the cottage toasty in the chillier months, as well as a television to watch all your favourite shows and movies. From here it follows into the modern kitchen that has an excellent rangemaster cooker, integrated appliances, and a dining table for two. The shower room is also on the ground floor with a large walk-in shower. The character continues as you head upstairs, with a steep winding wooden staircase taking you to the spacious bedroom which boasts a four-poster double bed and high vaulted ceilings.

This is an incredible property which really fascinated me as I tried to imagine who may have lived there in years gone by. I did find the stairs troublesome due to their steepness but other than that I thought it was well equipped with a lovely kitchen and bathroom.

Such a lovely yet quirky cottage. We loved every minute of the holiday. Thank you No 36.

Perfect for a holiday let. Ideally situated in the centre of the village and very comfortable. We had perfect weather and sat outside to eat each evening in the little courtyard area. Only problem could be for anyone less able. The staircase is narrow and windy which makes it impossible to take suitcases upstairs to the bedroom. Apart from that it was perfect.
