Tucked away in a very private location with beautiful views over fruit trees and paddocks, it is the perfect place for a peaceful holiday and an ideal base from which to explore Suffolk...if you can bear to leave! Newly renovated in a sympathetic manner with traditional Suffolk flooring, exposed beams and distempered, the cottage has everything that makes a comfortable holiday home. The open plan kitchen / living area is fully equipped so Christmas dinner should be no problem! With its full length double doors it is cool on the hottest day whilst there is oil fired central heating for the depths of winter. Please note that parking is a few minutes walk away and two sets of steps have to be navigated to reach the cottage. Both bedrooms are light and airy and have their own en-suite shower rooms with powerful showers and plenty of built in storage space. We hope guests find the cottage as pretty and relaxing as we do. It is lovely sitting on the terrace listening to nothing but bird song or studying the stars with only the call of the owls to break the silence. Though there is wifi and freesat TV the modern world can seem a million miles away. Although the cottage is all on one level there is no parking next to it. Cars have to be left in front of the hall. There is lots of space so guests can have two or three cars if needed. However a walk of a few minutes across gravel paths and involving two sets of steps is needed to reach the cottage so Orchard may not be suited to anyone with mobility issues. Larger groups of up to 10, could also be easily accommodated by booking Gardener's Cottage, which sleeps 6, as well. Dogs are welcome, usually only one pet per booking, but please note that as the orchard is only fenced in by post and rail fencing and we are surrounded by fields occupied by mares and foals dogs must remain on leads at all times when in the grounds. It is possible for two dogs to stay but only after discussion before booking. Unfortunately there is no safe enclosed space for dogs to roam freely outside of the cottage. There is a £25 cleaning fee payable when here for pets. Check in time is 4pm though we try to allow guests to arrive earlier if possible. Check out is 10am. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach towels ### Internet - Available in the house: WiFi ### Parking and transport - Car required - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee/tea maker -

The gravel paths are difficult for large suitcases, so bring sports bags and backpacks, and enjoy well-equipped and comfortable accommodation. The visitors’ book reveals unanimous satisfaction and delight in the immediate surroundings as well as the many interesting places to visit. A unique treasure run by the owners who offer the warmest of welcomes. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/12e1ef2e-5c4e-4b08-93c8-0427c821db7d-1759142315593.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Elisabeth J.

We had a very pleasant three nights. Beautiful grounds and next to West Stow Hall. Nice, private seating area outside. Very close to Anglo-Saxon Village (though when we went in early May the riverside footpath was closed for safety/repairs - so just a five minute drive instead). No local shops or pubs in walking distance - stock up before you go - but Bury is a 10-15 drive. ##### Bruce B.

Auch die Gastgeber geben einem zu jeder Zeit das Gefühl herzlich willkommen zu sein. Man kann es nur empfehlen. ##### Matthias B. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Stefano R. 7 Sept 2022 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Close to nature and history Orchard cottage is an oasis within an oasis, mid in nature, you can greet the horses and the deers come to say good morning.. we had no cellular network (which was good, this time), and sole access to the beautiful and enchanted orchard of West Stow Hall.. the weather also played ball, unforgettable stay, thank you Eileen! ##### Stefano R.
