Beautiful location on a Christmas tree farm. Quiet with just a handful of cottages. A large hot tub. However, cleanliness was poor, especially the kettle, oven, cutlery drawer. All floorboards upstairs loudly creaked so if you get up in the night, everyone is awake!

Dog friendly with a large outdoor area of grass. Very convenient for Snape and Aldeburgh. Adequate facilities for four. Small improvements would make this a really great rental cottage.
