2 The Homestead

2 The Homestead, affectionately known as 'The Homestead'. Situated in a tiny rural hamlet - this property is a perfect mix for quick access to the coast as well as enjoying the countryside. There is plenty to explore. The Homestead is ideal for those who love walking, birdwatching and cycling, all from your doorstep in the heart of Suffolk. Within easy access of Southwold, Minsmere, Dunwich and much more, come and experience this peaceful cottage for yourself.

A more charming and tranquil setting would be hard to find. A quiet country lane leads you through woodland and past open fields to the tiny hamlet of Clay Common. 2 The Homestead is set within a large, lawned garden with private off-street parking. Open the windows to delight in the birdsong. At the end of the day stargazers can view the beauty of the stars as there is no light pollution in Clay Common. 2 The Homestead is a peaceful, homely cottage where the hustle and bustle of everyday life can be put on hold. It has been in the owners' family for 4 generations and has recently been modernised.

Cyclists too will love exploring the network of trails in the area - one in particular which runs outside the property, leads to the Hundred River at Rushmere. A trip along the back roads can even take you to the small town of Halesworth. A full breakdown of cycle routes can be seen here. Southwold 5 miles, Covehithe 4 miles, Dunwich 9 miles and Minsmere 11 miles.

Why we love this property: Perfect for group of friends or two families looking for a simple and memorable holiday within easy reach of the Suffolk Heritage coast.
