Situated on the edge of the charming village of Knodishall, just 3 miles from coastal favourites Thorpeness and Aldeburgh, lies Stonehurst. This 3 bedroom one storey holiday home is beautifully presented to provide the ideal base for up to 6 guests looking to holiday near the Suffolk Coast.

All accommodation at Stonehurst is found on the ground floor and at the heart of the home is a stylish open plan living/dining room complete with log burning stove and pretty views over the garden. The kitchen offers a contemporary space with everything you could need to whip up culinary delights during your stay. After a long day exploring the coast or countryside, head for the bedrooms, where you will find the perfect space to relax and recharge. 2 of the 3 bedrooms host double beds and third bedroom has twin beds, making this an ideal property for families. There is one family bathroom and one ensuite shower room. Completing the property is a large and pretty outside space perfect for relaxing, with plenty of space to enjoy! The garden is mainly laid to lawn with garden seating and picnic bench, which can be shaded by the mature apple trees on a warm day.

If you’re looking for a holiday with easy access to the coast and countryside, Stonehurst is an ideal base from which to explore this stunning part of Suffolk. There are wonderful walks on the doorstep, the coast is a short 5 minute drive away and the RSPB Minsmere is a short drive away too and with good pubs nearby in Knodishall, Aldringham and Friston, you’ll have plenty to pack your stay with.

A well modernised bungalow with three good sized bedrooms and well equipped. We had somebody with us who cannot manage stairs, so this venue was ideal. Knodishall is also well situated to explore this part of the Suffolk coast - we explored from Southwold to Woodbridge, and places inbetween.

Beautiful cottage, very clean and welcoming with perfect sized rooms. The way the kitchen and living/dining room was set up meant that none of us were cut off especially on Christmas day when there is lots going on in the kitchen. Parking was also a plus point for us, being a party of 5 we came in 3 different cars. There was plenty of parking on Read morethe property. The cottage is in a lovely village setting with Knodishall common a stroll away for lovely walks with the dog. Hosts made our Christmas getaway perfect by setting up a Christmas tree and decorations and a welcome card. We definitely recommended Stonehurst for a break and have already recommended to friends. It is not a place that will disappoint! Hide

A well appointed, comfortable and pleasantly decorated bungalow in a good location for visiting our favourite Suffolk haunts. The garden is huge but would benefit from some more fencing or side gate to avoid dogs escaping to the busy road

A pleasant property in a good central location. Clean and comfortable. Shame the garden was not enclosed given it is dog friendly and on a busy road, but this was clear on the advert.

This was a lovely home from home for our family Christmas. Comfortable sofas and beds and everything we needed. Loved the garden and feeding the birds. Would be a great location for exploring the local area, particularly in the spring/summer, although wouldn't want to be there at busy times as road busy and noisy when in bed. Overall though, we lovRead moreed our stay. Hide
