Even though our stay was brief and the weather very wet we managed to see a lot of the area and it was lovely to come back to your cosy cottage. Thank you for the bottle of wine, all the information - a very comfortable relaxing stay.

Lovely cottage and ideally placed to visit Southwold, Blythburgh, Minsmere etc. Nice comfortable bed, the only slight negative was the stairs- for those not good on their feet it would be difficult.
