About this property
An attractive brick and flint 17th Century style cart lodge with far stretching views of rolling Suffolk countryside. The Granary makes for a peaceful getaway with the excitement of Newmarket Racecourse not too far away. Sleeping up to three guests in two bedrooms, the property is ideal for a small family, friends or a couple who are looking for a truly rural retreat.
Situated within the grounds of Saint Francis Cottage, The Granary is split over two floors with a spacious open-plan living area on the ground floor and two bedrooms and bathroom on the first floor. The open-plan living area is flooded with light and the french doors open onto a small patio area overlooking the pond and established gardens which guests are welcome to explore. The two oven Aga is operational during the cooler months, whilst the underfloor heating will ensure your toes are toasty throughout the year. There is a cosy sitting area and the dining table can comfortably accommodate up to six guests - ideal if you have friends over for supper. Upstairs, the master bedroom with king-size bed has a vast, vaulted ceiling and benefits from its very own balcony which has idyllic views of the surrounding fields and countryside. A cup of coffee on the balcony first thing in the morning is a holiday must. The second bedroom is generously sized and has a 3' single bed. After a long day of exploring, the bathtub with jets is perfect for a relaxing soak. Outside there is parking for up to two cars.
The Granary is surrounded by fields and countryside, yet benefits from being less than 20 minutes' drive from both Newmarket and Bury St. Edmunds.

Many thanks for your wonderful hospitality - your cake was delicious as was your bread! We've had an amazing time, the cottage was delightful and big shout out to the shower!

The Granary was in a lovely quiet location with fab views and a great garden. Due to the rain we were't able to sit outside much but it would be a lovely space in the summer watching the local wildlife. Everything in the Granary was really high quality and was spotlessly clean and the AGA warmed up the whole cottage. Would definitely recommend.

a great hideaway in the middle of the countryside; warm, comfortable, homely with lovely touches like a newly baked cake as welcoming gesture. Beds were great, everything was spotless, nice big table to eat and work on and a comfortable sofa to watch tv. Just one thing.. giving a good review attracts more people, and we want to keep this a secret.
