Reviews

Lovely compact cottage but with all anyone could want in it. Owners were friendly but not intrusive, they recommended somewhere to eat on our first night which was a hit. Pretty central for most tourist attractions.

Mrs W,

Really excellent and comfortable stay. Lovely hosts, great location

Mr T,

Great well appointed unique property in a fantastic quaint village in the Suffolk countryside. On the doorstep of plenty of places to visit during your stay so you can be as active as you wish. We had a great relaxing few days.

Mr T,

Sampson's Mill was a fabulous place to stop and is accurately described on the original cottages website. It was a great quirky place to stay and a definite for the future A really enjoyable stay.

Mr Y,

Lovely, comfortable property, perfect for two people. Owners are very friendly & accommodating. Wickham Market is a small town with a Co-op & a few takeaways with an amazing fish & chip shop. Sampsons Mill is a great base for visiting the wonderful Suffolk coast & countryside.

Mrs L,

A beautiful and unique property, in a great location and centre for exploring a wide area of the coast and countryside. A very private hide-away, but the owners were on hand should anything be needed. Shops for essentials were also just a ten minute walk away. My favourite nearby location was Woodbridge (5 miles away) where there was plenty to see and do, and a wonderful river-side walk to get away from everything (bird-watching excellent especially at low tide). Recommended without reservation.

Mrs P,

Sampson's mill is an ideally situated cottage there are lots of places of interest to visit nearby.The cottage itself is well equipped and comfortable.

Preferably comfortable and great location

Mrs Lyndsey W,

Sampson’s mill was a fantastic find. Peaceful and quite location but close enough to Wickham market for places to eat, either walking or driving. Very well equipped holiday cottage with very pleasant owners. If you want a quirky place to stay look no further.

Mr H,

Very comfortable and spotlessly clean. ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The mill was quaint and a little difficult to find but our stay was very comfortable. Everything worked well. Thank you.

This is a lovely property for a romantic break, and it was in spotless condition when we arrived. The proprietor was most helpful with directions and on arrival. We had a wonderful break and hope that we shall be able to return before long.
