This Grade II Listed cottage is situated in the pretty village of Wrentham, a five minute drive from the unspoilt beach of Covehithe on the Suffolk Heritage Coast and just ten minutes away from the Edwardian seaside town of Southwold.
Dressmaker's is full of character and has been renovated whilst retaining a wealth of original features in fireplaces, exposed beams and oak flooring. With four bedrooms, this spacious cottage is ideal for a large family or group of friends wishing to enjoy a short break or longer holiday not far from the coast.
The cottage features a large, open plan kitchen/dining area with dining table to seat nine as well as a lovely lounge with cosy wood-burner and downstairs WC. On the first floor, there are two double bedrooms with one ensuite, a bunk bedded room and family bathroom. A second staircase leads to an attic bedroom with three single beds.
