A chic, stylish Suffolk retreat, this single-storey cottage has an abundance of design flair. Sleeping eight guests across four bedrooms, it nestles on the edge of Acton, 3 miles from Long Melford and 3.5 miles from Sudbury. Long Melford is known for its array of independent shops, boutiques and galleries, and is a favourite among those who love antiques. Wander the National Trust’s beautiful stately home of Melford Hall, 3 miles away, with its walled gardens and acres of parkland. Kentwell Hall, 4 miles away, with its impressive Tudor house, is also worth visiting. Venture 6.5 miles to the fringes of the Dedham Vale National Landscape. Explore the landscapes that so inspired English Romantic artist John Constable. Pull on your walking boots and follow trails through the ancient woodland at Arger Fen and Spouse’s Vale, 7.5 miles away, enjoying the carpets of bluebells during the late spring.
Head back to this modern retreat after your days out exploring Suffolk to relax and enjoy quality time together in the spacious, airy ambience of the sleek, Nordic-style hideaway. Enter via the hall and amble on through to the welcoming, open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, slide back the great glass doors in here onto the garden on bright spring and summer days. Stroll over to the high-gloss, white kitchen to unpack any Suffolk produce you have bought, then set about preparing the next meal. Make fresh coffee in the machine and carry it over to the plush mustard-coloured sofas and enjoy it in front of the Smart TV. Congregate round the table for your lively holiday meals. A utility space, with a washing machine and tumble dryer, is close by. One of your bedrooms is also accessed from the living area. In total, there are four bedrooms, three king-sizes and one twin, here. One of the bedrooms has an en-suite bathroom, while two others have en-suite shower rooms. There is a family wet room with some accessibility features. The games room, where you can have fun playing together on the multi-use table, is also off the hall.
The property is set in generous, enclosed gardens where you can play family games and enjoy the sense of space under the huge East Anglian skies. Supervise the children on the play area and bubble in the hot tub as you stargaze on clear nights. There is private parking for four cars, plus an EV charger.
