The cottage is a real hidden gem. From the moment we arrived, we felt so welcomedespecially by the lovely Easter Eggs and the thoughtful welcome pack. It was such a kind touch and made the start of our Easter weekend feel extra special. We had an amazing Easter hereenjoying a delicious roast in the brilliantly equipped kitchen, a sunny BBQ in the gRead morearden, and plenty of fresh-air adventures to Suffolk food hall and Ipswich. The location was absolutely perfect for visits to the in-laws and for exploring the area. We had lovely walks down by the pier in Felixstowe, and our pup had the time of his life sniffing every inch of it! my youngest especially loved visiting the little duck pond next door. The peaceful surroundings and warm, homely touches made this feel like a true escape from everyday life. Thank you again for everything. Weve made some really special memories here and would absolutely love to book again in the future! Hide

A lovely, comfortable holiday home. There is lots of room in the house (for 4 adults, 2 teens and a dog) and the garden is both beautiful and safe for kids and dogs to run about in which was great as we had very warm weather for an April stay. It is a short drive to lovely Felixstowe, we thought we could walk it but its about 45 minutes away on fooRead moret. We visited the fort and museum which was great and would recommend a few hours there. We visited the Hand in Hand pub but just missed food service so check the local pubs are serving food before you go. Lovely, clean, welcoming holiday home, would definitely recommend to get away from the hustle and bustle of London! Thank you! Hide

Cowpasture Cottage was a beautiful property for our family stay. The cottage is very well presented with everything needed for a self catering break. A mix of old and new with period features throughout and an amazing modern kitchen. The garden is large with a big lawn, trees and plants and there are garden games provided including croquet, bouleRead mores and mikado. We were lucky to see a Kingfisher in the pond next to the garden plus squirrels and rabbits in the garden. The property is within east reach of Felixstowe seafront plus other places such as Woodbridge, Rendlesham, Snape, Sutton Hoo and Ipswich all within around a 30 minute radius. The owners were on hand to answer any questions we had and supplied a lovely welcome pack of goodies on arrival. We would highly recommend Cowpasture Cottage to anyone and hope to return in the future. Hide
