Moat Cottage consists of two traditional Suffolk buildings which immerse you into the historical village of Orford. The main 3 bedrooms and communal areas are located in the cottage itself with its driftwood and exposed brick features. The dining room has plenty of character with original brick floor and decorative fireplace containing an electric log-effect stove; it provides a large dining table with a combination of bench seating and chairs which comfortably seats eight guests. Light from the large windows creates a bright and airy lounge with comfortable sofas, a selection of books and a television. Accessed via the patio is an old bakery which has been converted into an additional bedroom which contains a comfy kingsize bed. The old bakery has its own shower room and washing machine for your convenience.
This holiday cottage is located close to the centre of Orford, the village shops, café, restaurants, pubs and of course, the Castle. It provides flexible accommodation and has some intriguing features, especially in the old bakery. Shop: 160 yds Pub: 90 yrds

Orford was once an important port with a thriving quay, several churches and of course its own castle. Today it is one of the prettiest coastal villages in East Anglia. While it has diminished in size, it has developed in style. Not only is there a fine range of eateries, its shops are excellent and you can get everything there from smoked fish, beautiful bread and croissants to log baskets. Orford is a village in which to relax and slow down. There are fine walks and quiet cycle rides from the cottage and with Orford Ness (National Trust), Havergate Island (RSPB) and a choice of estuary trips you will always have something of interest to fill your days. For the more energetic, there is of course sailing and yachting on the estuary. Painted by J M W Turner, Orford is well loved by contemporary artists and photographers.

Reviews

Booked at relatively short notice, but process was quick and painless. Me and my three children enjoyed our stay at Moat Cottage. The village is lovely and there was plenty to do and see in the surrounding area. We had fun evenings playing board games in the dining room, which is real rarity now the kids are all teenagers ??

Mr Simon H,

We enjoyed our stay at Moat Cottage. We also really enjoyed Orford; the pubs, walks, Pump House Bakery and carols at the Church.
