A calming getaway awaits in the undisturbed village of Blaxhall. Experience a splendid getaway with family or friends when staying in this single-storey property, lovingly laid out to host six guests. Wonderfully located for exploring so many of Suffolk’s attractions, Blaxhall is situated on the outskirts of the Suffolk Coast and Heaths Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, 18.5 miles from Ipswich and within easy reach of the coast (8.5 miles). Nearby attractions include the beautiful Snape Maltings (3 miles), the historic hot spots of Parnham Airfield Museum (4.5 miles) and Bentwaters Cold War Museum (3.5 miles), and the revered nature reserve at RSPB Minsmere (12 miles). For an extremely satisfying walk through the countryside and along the coast, head to Snape Maltings to embark on the Sailors’ Pathway, a 6-mile route which will take you all the way to Aldeburgh (8.5 miles) where you can reward yourself with some of the area’s most delicious fish and chips.

Set beneath high ceilings with sturdy beams throughout, the social hub of this house is its open-plan lounge, kitchen and diner. Complete with a warming wood burner and French doors leading out to the garden, this room is a delight to enjoy throughout both the summer and winter months. When the weather is cold, throw logs on the fire, curl up in a cosy armchair and switch on the TV/DVD after a hearty dinner enjoyed at the dining table. In brighter weather, make use of the well-equipped kitchen to prepare a summer-ready meal and exit via French doors to dine alfresco. No matter when your stay falls, the three bedrooms laid out on the ground floor are always comfortable and inviting. Made up of one double bedroom and two twins, each room is equipped with fresh linens and soft mattresses to sink into late at night. Finally, the property is served by a spacious shower room and an additional WC in the handy cloakroom.

As mentioned, there’s an abundance of space to enjoy the outdoors when the weather allows. The garden is an enclosed space with both lawn and patio areas, accessible via French doors in the lounge or via the double bedroom. The patio space is furnished to ensure you’ve got a comfortable spot for al fresco dining.

Lovely cottage, superb location with many places close by to explore - best of all its tucked away so all you can hear is nature, the odd dog bark and a tractor or two.

Lovely location away from the road down a little private grass track surrounded by allotments and high trees. The garden is all secure with a couple of bits of picket fencing being the lowest height of enclosure. It is a well designed fairly roomy and spacious bungalow with lovely outlook to a well kept and pretty planted gardens and is home to atRead more least one mole and a small deer was seen on the front path. Inside the coastal area and close to many great places to take dogs off lead in summer. There are other houses and a pub but it is a rural location. Hide

A very well appointed cottage, very comfortable and an ideal place to return to after our days out. Our little dog loved the enclosed garden and we had no fears of him escaping! Although a small thing, couldn't find any clothes pegs. Other than that highly recommended and hope to return in the future.

Had a very nice stay here for a week - 4 adults, 2 children & 2 dogs. Its in a quiet, secluded location within a small village and is great for country walks and theres a lovely traditional pub within a couple of minutes walk too. No local grocery shops but Saxmundham is a very short drive away with Tesco, Waitrose and an amazing butchers in the hiRead moregh street. Snape Maltings is also only a few minutes drive away, and we were able to visit a lot of other Suffolk attractions from here without travelling for more than 30 minutes. Hide
