In a peacefully quiet location down a single track country lane, 2 Wadd Cottages is a recently renovated, single floor holiday cottage furnished and fitted to the very highest standard. With a white washed interior, hand-selected pieces add pops of colour to make this a unique yet welcoming property for up to 6. The grand open plan living area is the hub of the home and has all that you could need for a restful self-catering holiday. Whether you're looking for an escape with friends, or a place to celebrate a significant birthday, 2 Wadd Cottages offers all the ingredients for a truly wonderful stay, whatever the weather. The well equipped kitchen is an amateur chef's dream; plenty of cupboard space awaits to stock your locally sourced goodies whilst there is all the equipment you could dream of from a steamer to a pizza stone! So ingeniously designed, the central island has a convenient breakfast bar, yet the comfortable window seat makes a perfect 'perch' for all ages wanting to watch the cooking action.

The sitting area has utterly comfortable furniture looking out through the french doors to the rolling fields beyond. Dream of evenings spent here snuggled up with a book, playing a board game or watching one of the DVD's provided by the owner - the possibilities are limitless. Flooded with light and with high, vaulted ceilings, this open plan space is utterly spacious and you really won't feel crowded. 

A hallway connects the living area to the 3 beautifully finished bedrooms, all with french doors leading out to the garden and decking. The master bedroom with Superking bed enjoys similar views to that from the sitting area - so you can fulfill your dream of waking up to breathtaking countryside views. A convenient en-suite shower room means you really can look forward to a touch of luxury during your stay. The two further bedrooms each have zip and link beds, making 2 Wadd Cottages a truly flexible bolt-hole for families, friends or couples. 

2 Wadd Cottages is perfectly situated for those looking to explore the delights of Suffolk. Being on the outskirts of Snape, you have a choice of 3 charming eateries in the village only a short drive (or walk!) away. The famous Snape Maltings has a year round programme of music, not forgetting it's annual Food and Drink Festival. A 5 mile drive down the road takes you to the ever popular coastal town of Aldeburgh, whilst convenient access to the A12 means you have good connections to Southwold, Woodbridge and beyond. Whether you like to adventure on two legs, two or four wheels, we guarantee you'll be captivated by Suffolk's unique charm. Pub: 1 miles (20 min walk). Shop: 1.4 miles.

There is easy access to the fascinating coastal town of Aldeburgh, plus castles and much more to explore at Framlingham and Orford. The burial treasures at Sutton Hoo, near Woodbridge, should not be missed either.

2 Wadd cottage is an ideal place to stay. It is ideally situated, for us, we like walking around the fields with our dog. We have stayed here six times now, so as you can imagine we really like it. We will be booking again for next year, possibly around May time.

A beautifully presented cottage in a lovely location close to our favourites - Snape Maltings, Aldeburgh, Southwold and Orford.

The bedrooms are comfortable and the master bedroom has extensive views across the fields. We Read moreenjoyed watching the creation of shredded wheat in the evenings in the fields behind. A short walk down the lane and the garage supplies almost everything needed for a short stay. Our first night and we had booked a table at the Golden Key.

Curtain pole and base at back of cottage over patio doors to garden came away from the wall when opened. Curtains are very heavy. Worried it may fall on one of us. Took curtains down ourselves.

A lovely cottage, very close to Snape and Aldeburgh. Good local amenities, including a super fast EV charging hub at Friday Street farm (1 mile from the cottage) This was appreciated as we both have EVs :-) The garden was great as it was secure for our two dogs and there was a lovely view of the wheat field from the cottage. The cottage is wellRead more equipped and was perfect for our family group of grandparents, parents and 4 month old baby. The layout was also ideal to entertain friends who live locally. Would happily stay again Hide

Wadd 2 is lovely. The gardens are better than Wadd 1 so if you get the choice Id recommend 2. Excellent facilities everything you could ask for in the kitchen area. The bedrooms are clean and comfortable. My only downside would be that they only have doors to the outside, not windows so if its really hot you have to sleep with the door open.

Loved the cottage and venue. I would say mattress toppers required and sky TV. There was only one TV and it had free view Washer very noisy as not levelled but these are all minor gripes and we had amazing weather.
