A comfortable and well equipped cottage in a lovely peaceful location. The enclosed garden at the back was perfect for our toddler grandson, while the front with its beautiful floral display attracted lots of butterflies and bees.We loved the sound of the wind in the trees and star gazing at night. Close to the seaside town of Southwold with its saRead morendy beach and the pretty little town of Halesworth was nearby. We also enjoyed trips to Dunwich and Orford Ness. Hide
