Tucked away in the centre of Woodbridge you will find the picture-perfect Scribbler's Cottage. Secretly hidden from view of the thoroughfare, this pretty property is perfectly placed to access all that the charming town of Woodbridge and its surroundings has to offer. Located in a prime central spot and sleeping up to four, it offers cosy accommodation and is well presented throughout with plenty of modern features that add to the character of this beautiful home. 

Two bedrooms await to rest and relax after a day exploring the local delights of the River Deben or Sutton Hoo. The main bedroom boasts a double bed and the second a great kid’s room with bunk beds.
The sitting room and kitchen offer a light and bright place to come together and has all you could need during your stay. Cosy up on the sofas in front of the open fire or bake some delicious cakes or treats in the kitchen. Or just enjoy some time out reading – the cottage is named Scribbler’s after budding writers after all. If you fancy a day off cooking, why not nip over to the delectable local bakeries on the Thoroughfare and pick up some freshly baked croissants to enjoy!

There is also a pretty, little enclosed courtyard that catches the early morning sunshine right through to afternoon, there is also a gorgeous front garden with a bench to catch more afternoon and evening  Suffolk sun.

Why we love this property: A picture perfect cottage in the centre of Woodbridge, close by to all that this wonderful market town has to offer.

Woodbridge is a historic town of great character situated on the River Deben. Its charm lies in the many narrow picturesque streets of fine houses and cottages, the river, the famous Tide Mill, the ancient buildings around the Market Hill and the fine Church. Woodbridge has an interesting shopping centre, with many specialist shops, good restaurants, and pubs, together with art galleries, antique shops, the town museum and an excellent cinema/theatre, large recreation areas and an indoor heated swimming pool. With the benefit of a train station, guests can arrive from London Liverpool Street in under 2 hours. Woodbridge is perfectly located to enjoy both the Suffolk Coast and Countryside, with coastal towns such as Aldeburgh and Thorpeness an easy drive away and popular countryside locations such as Rendlesham Forest nearby too. Woodbridge also benefits from being just a short drive from some fascinating historical locations such as the National Trust sites of Sutton Hoo and Orford Ness.

A lovely atmosphere in the cottage. Very well furnished and everything has been thought of. It was warm and comfortable and great to be in the Thoroughfare, with shops 'on the doorstep'. We would highly recommend a stay there.

Beautiful little cottage right in the centre of this lovely town. It's very cosy and warm - we didn't do any cooking as there are so many places to eat out, but the kitchen appeared very well equipped. Lots of pubs and fantastic bakeries, and buses to many places locally. We would like to visit again to explore more of the area. It's very easy Read moreto access by train, and saves having to pay to park in the local car park. The centre of the town is pedestrianised. Hide

A really lovely little cottage, well-presented and furnished, also immaculately clean. The bedding was very comfortable, there was plenty of hot water/water pressure and the owners provided lots of very useful extra items, including a generous welcome pack with milk, local juice & coffee, teas, crisps, biscuits... The cottage is very well situated Read morein the centre of Woodbridge but surprisingly quiet at night. (Can be some noise in the early mornings from shop deliveries, so earplugs are a good idea.) Some truly lovely bakeries close by, nice shops and a good big Co-op, with easy walking access to everything -- I would definitely stay here again. I parked immediately behind the cottage in the 'Hamblin Road 2' Car Park, where you can park for a full day for a modest sum and simply renew daily as needed via the Ringo App. A lovely stay. Hide

A lovely little cottage right in the heart of Woodbridge. Small but perfectly laid out and fit our family of 4 (and dog) well. Parking is behind the cottage in a pay as you go carpark which works with most parking apps and there is a small gate at the back of the garden which allows you to shortcut to your car. A tiny garden has a table in it anRead mored is a lovely place to sit in the summer and the house has an open plan downstairs - kitchen to sitting room and conservatory which flows really well. There was a lovely welcome package which we really appreciated and included coffee and milk (thank you!!) and the beds were comfortable with quality linens provided. All in all we loved our stay and will be back for sure. Highly commended! Hide
