Converted from a former farm building, this rustic cottage is a cosy and stylish retreat situated on the Suffolk coast. Exposed brick and ceiling timber run through the home, creating an old-world ambiance and an authentic country feel. Keep warm by the wood burner in winter, and sit outside on the pretty patio in fine weather with glasses of wine and tasty meals rustled up in your fully-equipped kitchen. If you fancy exploring, you're just a fifteen-minute drive from Aldeburgh Beach and its namesake golf course, or you can walk to the banks of the River Alde in a matter of minutes. Culture buffs should visit nearby sites like the 7th century St Botolph’s Church and Iken village, the reputed base of Boudica, for an insight into of the area’s fascinating history. When dusk falls, head home to your cosy abode for a hearty dinner and blissful sleep in your comfortable, king-size bed.
