The cottage, located in a conservation area, is set a short distance off the high street down a quiet lane. Both countryside and the Suffolk coastline are within easy reach. Renovated in 2022 to offer an excellent standard of comfort and equipment. Inside, you will find a few beams, along with a wood burner in the living room to snuggle beside on cooler evenings, or play some of the board games. The kitchen is well equipped to dine at home, and for any foodies looking to dine out, the local area is plentiful with many good eateries. To the rear is a lovely, enclosed lawn garden and further seating secretly tucked away with a lovely view across the beautiful countryside, with the River Deben flowing nearby. Just a stroll from the cottage is a play barn and cafe that families with children under 7 can enjoy. The play area behind the village hall has a skate park, and non members can book a session on the courts at the tennis club. A short drive away is horse riding for all ages and abilities together with their café.
The cottage is a short distance down a quiet lane where horses can often be seen wandering by, and is within walking distance of the high street which is well served with a supermarket, newsagent, hairdressers, beauticians, vet and restaurants. You will also find dog friendly cafes where you can eat inside, outside or take away. They offer ready meals, soups and Friday night stone baked Italian pizza to order for take away. You can walk from the doorstep across the water meadows to the 14th-century inn located in the next village. Newly renovated and opened 2025, the nearby pub in Wickham Market is within walking distance of the cottage. They serve lunch or evening meals and they welcome dogs.
The surrounding countryside in the Deben Valley is a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty with picturesque countryside. Woodbridge is a bustling market town with a range of independent shops, fine dining pubs, restaurants and coffee shops, as well as a swimming pool, independent cinema, sailing and glorious walks along the River Deben. The train station is in neighbouring Campsea Ashe with rail links to London, the coast and the Broads. The ancient Saxon burial ground at Sutton Hoo (National Trust) and the famous seaside resorts of Aldeburgh and Southwold are within easy reach.
A 25-minute drive away is the port of Felixstowe and its beaches, with the passenger foot and bike ferry leaving from Landguard Fort to historic Harwich and Shotley. Suffolk boasts many country estates for visiting including Helmingham Hall, Crows Hall and Heveningham Hall. Nearby is Snape Maltings which is famous for being Benjamin Britten’s concert hall. The Latitude Festival, held annually at Henham Park, and the Constable Country villages of Dedham and East Bergholt, are a 35-minute drive. The towns of Bury St Edmunds, Ipswich and Colchester are all within easy reach for a great day out. Close by you can visit Framlingham Castle - the famous ‘Castle on the Hill’, Shawsgate Vineyard, Bruisyard and Heveningham Hall, along with Easton Farm Park. Beach 12 miles.

We had a lovely stay in this comfortable, warm and cosy cottage. The owner is very kind and friendly and went above and beyond to help us during our stay. The cottage is very well situated to explore Suffolk, and we enjoyed wonderful walks along Suffolk’s coastline and rivers and in the surrounding countryside. A very relaxing week, thank you.

We stayed in the cottage over Christmas. It had been decorated before we arrived which was beautiful. All our needs were catered for. The bedrooms were very comfortable and quiet. The living room was cosy and well appointed with comfortable sofas and chairs. The kitchen had all the facilities that you could wish for. A lovely warm bathroom was also provided.Parking was provided to the rear with a secure small garden for our dog.We had a very enjoyable week at Heartwarming Cottage.
