Mr Rock
Pleasant week in a very good location. House is well furnished and we enjoyed the evenings round the fire. Just around the corner from both a local shop and a pub that is now serving meals daily... that said we popped up the road to The Fox in Darsham as we've eaten there before. Also easy to get back to Saxmundham if you need a choice of supermarkets... in our opinion better than the Coop in Halesworth . A word of advise to other dog owners.though... yes the house is suitable, and there is a rear courtyard, but the front garden access is shared and is open to the road, so the dogs could not be let off the lead in the front garden. BUT, within a 100 yards round the side of the bowling club and you've miles of paths across the fields. So a mild inconvenience, but worth being aware.

A really comfortable, well-equipped and well-cared for cottage in a great location. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Barn Meadow Cottage. It is well placed for exploring Sutton Hoo, Walberswick, Aldeburgh with Benjamin Britten's Red House and the coast around Orford. The weather was not great, but the garden room with its underfloor heating was very pleasant on wet days and the air source heating kept us warm on chilly evenings. Kitchen is well equipped for self-catering. EV charging is well set up, but bring your own leads.

Lovely place to stay, full of character and charm. Grand parents used the annex and two tall teens in the twin room, plenty of room for 6 adults, Beds very comfortable too. Well equipped property and great for exploring the area. Would look to book again.
