A picturesque, chocolate box cottage painted in the famous ‘Suffolk Pink’ colour and surrounded by lavender, wisteria, and magnolia.
Situated in the pretty village of Yoxford, which is close to the Heritage Coast, is Barn Meadow Cottage - a pretty property with an abundance of charm and character in a quiet location at the end of a private lane. It accommodates up to six guests across three generous bedrooms, two within the main house and sharing a large modern shower room, and the third in its own private area in the former stable with an ensuite shower room. Please note that this property does not have a bath.
Downstairs there are two spacious living rooms, a dining room, and the farmhouse style kitchen. The snug is the perfect spot to cosy up together: light the wood burner, snuggle under the blankets and watch a movie, or soak up the sun and read a good book in the garden room. The kitchen is fully equipped for all your self-catering needs with space for everyone around the table in the dining room.
Outside is a beautiful and mature landscaped garden with flowers springing up throughout the year and a lovely seating area shaded by a medlar tree. This wonderful cottage is the ideal bolthole from which to explore the heritage coast, with Aldeburgh and Southwold just a 20-minute drive away!
Why we love this property: A pretty pink cottage perfect for all the family.

The main high street of Yoxford has an interesting and pleasing mix of architecture dating from the 14th century right up to the 20th century. Taking its name from the ford over the river, Yoxford is known locally as 'the garden of Suffolk' because of its setting between two stretches of parkland. Its good location slightly off the A12, makes it a central holiday destination for visiting Southwold, Aldeburgh, Dunwich, and RSPB Minsmere. The village also has an award-winning restaurant ‘Mains’ open Thursday, Friday and Saturday (booking essential) and G & T’s Tea Shop, winner of the 2017 Suffolk Food and Drink ‘Best Coffee/Tea shop award and finalist in 2018. There is a pub and a village store. Yoxford is a centre for antique shops and for arts and crafts: the giant bronze statue of the Yoxman watches over the village from a neighbouring field.
