A fabulous, comfortable cottage in a great location, which enabled us to explore the beautiful Suffolk coast and surrounding villages. Being able to arrive back at the end of each day, sitting outside with a glass of wine admiring the lovely setting and its amazing garden was such a treat (hope the new sheep have settled in). Marion and Phillip were the perfect hosts and also very welcoming on our arrival. Would highly recommend and definitely stay again. Many thanks for a fantastic holiday. Les and Greg
