Lovely accommodation for a short break
We rented for 4 nights for the sole purpose of getting away while work was being done in our house, so it was not a planned holiday. The old cow shed was perfect for a couple, everything you could want was there. It was warm comfortable and well equipped. Despite the snow and rain (early March) we explored Suffolk and had a lovely time. Nice pub in the village and another close by on the main A140.

Very quirky house
We loved the bed, the shower with plenty of hot water. The underfloor heating is yummy and towels nice and thick. We were left some cider and biscuit, very nice.
