We have had the most wonderful stay at 2 Wissett Cottages. It is a haven of peace and calm with the loveliest of views. Most mornings we saw Deer, a variety of birds and fortunately lovely sunrises and sunsets across the field opposite. The cottage was spotlessly clean and it was well equipped with all the necessities we would need for our stay. TRead morehe garden is safely fenced and our dog was able to go out without having to worry about him escaping. At the beginning of our stay we mentioned to the owner that there was a small gap under the gate which he could possibly squeeze under, this was rectified very quickly by them, thank you for that. The area is full of history and there are many places around an hours drive away from the cottage, some places closer to. The owners live next door and are at hand if any problems, however they are not intrusive at all. We would fully recommend this property and would certainly return if ever in the area again. Thank you to the owners for making our holiday a happy one. Hide

The cottage was absolutely stunning. So clean and tidy and fresh. It was made to feel like you were the very first guests to stay there.

A very enjoyable stay in a very clean and well equipped cottage. A little isolated but quiet with a lengthy walk to the nearest pub the Whiteacre White Lion (nice meal). Would certainly consider returning if we came back to that part of Suffolk.
