## About this property

### Entire place

You'll have the entire cottage to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

### Peace and quiet in the heart of the Suffolk countryside.

This light and airy cottage is part of Whitehouse Farm, and has all modern amenities. The countryside around here is fantastic for dog walking and for exploring the beautiful town of Bury St. Edmunds. Cambridge and Ipswich are only a short train ride away from the next village. This spot is a beautiful quiet part of Suffolk.  
  
The living area and bedroom are on the first floor with views out over the farm and surrounding countryside, whilst the bathroom (no bath, but large walk in shower) is at ground level.  
  
The cottage is well equipped with fridge and freezer, oven, electric hob, microwave, toaster and kettle. There is also a washing machine, with a shared dryer available in the separate laundry room.

#### Lovely Rural Location

Great location and host very flexible and helpful. Living space is in the roof area (with skylights) and a downstairs wet room so not ideal in really hot spells or for people with physical limitations.

#### Perfect stay 

Perfect accommodation for a short break. Upstairs is decorated to a good standard in modern style. Everything you need. Kitchen/lounge/diner area. Very cosy and relaxing. Quite big bedroom with double bed and comfortable mattress. Downstairs at bottom of stairs is the toilet and a wet room with shower and under floor heating. Lovely and warm and nice decor. We used the accommodation for a two night stay so we could visit family nearby. Absolutely ideal. Just friendly and helpful. Thank you.

#### Beautiful and peaceful

We were very comfortable here, and it was a joy to open the curtains each morning to see moorhens and pheasants just below on the lane, and the pretty pond. Being surrounded by fields meant it was lovely and quiet, and an ideal place from which to see meteor showers. No luck with aurora borealis, but you can't have everything! The cottage is fully equipped with everything for a very comfortable stay. Highly recommended.
