The Loft is beautifully furnished and in a lovely quiet location, yet is easily accessible to most spots, being only 20mins from Haverhill or Long Milford.
We stayed here as it was so close to the family we were visiting and will definitely return to the Loft when we visit again!

Wonderful, generous, helpful hosts, we would give a 10 for customer service if the score allowed. Beautiful location. Cosy, professionally designed interior, very comfortable beds, great base for a holiday, with many places to visit.

'Rest and Relaxation'
Aspen Loft is a beautiful place to be. We adored the colourful décor of the loft! It has such a warm & cosy atmosphere. A welcome break from the fast pace of life. The surrounding area gives you the opportunity to explore the great outdoors, slow down and relax. The welcome pack and other niceties were so thoughtful. Our superb hosts Kate, her husband and the dogs were very welcoming. We highly recommend Aspen Loft to anyone seeking a relaxing getaway.

A lovely countryside retreat
We spent a midweek in the Aspen Loft and had a truly delightful experience. The accommodation is wonderfully cosy, with charming and colourful decoration that instantly makes you feel at home. The kitchen is equipped with everything you might need and the garden is an absolute gem, romantic with a wide view across the surrounding landscape. The hosts welcomed us with genuine warmth (and their gentle dogs added an extra touch of joy). Highly recommended for anyone looking to relax in a peaceful countryside setting.

Good accomodation at beautiful location with charming hosts
We stayed at Aspen Loft for almost 2 weeks wit our 2 children and had a very good time there. The loft was big enough for the 4 of us and all necessities were available. There is much to do and see around Assington Green and nothing is more than an hours drive. For suggestions the hosts were always available for any recommendations. We felt very welcome and our stay was over before we knew.

Lovely stay, friendly hosts, marvelous garden - idyllic at it's best
We chose this cottage because of it's cheerful design. The pictures didn't lie, the interior is composed exceptionally well.
Entering the garden, of which we could use a big part, the lovely scents where bringing joy.
A horse welcomed us in the morning with a soft snort, chickens where wandering around. The dogs where friendly, one came for cuddles.
Kate and Christopher made us feel so welcome. They are the best, warmest hosts ever! They generously share the beautiful home and space they created.
A lovely loft apartment, within the owner's beautiful garden. Kate was the perfect host - friendly and prompt to help with any problems that we had. We were also provided with fabulous welcome gifts of food, drink and flowers from the garden!
Just one thing - if you are older/less mobile, the bath can be difficult to get in and out of without help.
We had a lovely relaxed week, as did Dave the dog!
