From the capacious living spaces to the pretty herb garden and generous lawn outside, not to mention the swimming pool, this property is an ideal choice for socialising as a large group in the Suffolk countryside. A short trip to Wenhaston 4 miles away provides local amenities, while the pub at Bramfield is only 2 miles away. For a beach, take a trip 9 miles east to the coast at Dunwich, where you can also explore the village of Dunwich itself, rich in medieval history. At Southwold 12 miles to the north-east you can find more beach to enjoy, as well as the restored Victorian pier and the Southwold Maize Maze for a fun few hours with the family. Closer to home (3.5 miles) is the Wilderness Reserve, if you fancy some pampering treatments and therapies, and closer to home still are all the stunning walks you can take right from the front door.

On the ground floor there is a spacious kitchen/diner which has a lot of natural light and lovely views thanks to the bi-fold doors that open out into the herb garden. The sitting room is full of comfortable seating in front of the wood burner, and there is a utility room with extra appliances as well as a cloakroom. There is a snug that acts as a second sitting room with yet more seating and another wood burner, while you will also find the first bedroom and shower room on the ground floor. On the first floor are the remaining 3 bedrooms and the family bathroom. The super-king-size bedroom has an en-suite shower room.

Outside, the large garden wraps around the property and is mainly lawn surround by beautiful trees and other plants, and there is plenty of outdoor seating as well as a BBQ. Doors from the sitting room and kitchen/dining room lead out into the peaceful and picturesque herb garden with more seating.

Brook Cottage was ideal for our family group's holiday: an idyllic and peaceful location in the Suffolk countryside yet well-placed to explore the surrounding villages and diverse attractions along the coast, from nature walks and cultural experiences to local shopping and fish and chips on the beach. The farmhouse was beautifully decorated, spaciRead moreous and comfortable with a well-stocked kitchen/dinner allowing us to prepare family meals and enjoy the delicious local produce. We were able to keep ourselves amply entertained indoors with copious reading material and board games as well as enjoying time outdoors in the beautiful garden and a rather lovely swimming pool which proved a favourite amongst our party. Many thanks for a wonderful home-from-home stay. Hide

This is a fabulous house in the middle of the beautiful Suffolk countryside but still convenient for Southwold, Aldeburgh and other lovely places. For three generations of our family it was ideal - we all loved having the heated swimming pool and the very beautiful, extensive and well kept gardens. The house is exceptionally well furnished and equiRead morepped and we were able to enjoy family meals outdoors in the sunshine - it was great to be able to use herbs and seasonal produce from the garden in our cooking. Highly recommended. Hide

House was just perfect for our family get together, everything we needed for the weekend and all lovely quality, weather made it but the pool setting was just the best, so much to see and do around the area, so great base, helpful owners and so quiet and peaceful, couldnt recommend it enough.
