About this property

Stiffkey, hot tub/spa safe garden dog friendly, parking, next to marsh local pub

Comfortable semi detached cottage next to the Stiffkey marsh. Spa / hot tub on the West patio, seats 7. Large enclosed back garden. The garden is child and pet safe with a small mesh wire fence that is not visible in the pictures. Sleeps 8 people in 4 bedrooms. Two medium sized dogs are allowed or ask. Quiet rural location surrounded by fields. Wide open views. You can see the marsh and sea, when the tide is in, from the cottage through the thin line of trees. Off road parking. 10 minute walk to the village pub via a lane at the back of the cottage. The chalk stream river Stiffkey meanders its way through the small and unspoilt village with its red brick and flint ancient cottages. It exits into the sea at a place called the Freshes, about 20 mins walk from the cottage. The village benefits from a character-full 16th century free-house pub, open all day, dog friendly that has a large car park. This is about 10 minutes walk via the lane at the back of the cottage. There is also a Post Office / cafe that also sells essentials and knick knacks. The coastal path is a minutes walk away. Discount for couples in off peak, ask for a price.

We live in Freckenham Suffolk so it does not take us long to get to Stiffkey. We go every weekend to ensure the cottage is up to standard. We do not just leave it for someone else..

Why they chose this property

Mulberry Cottage was bought by my father in 1963 when the Anti Aircraft Training Camp was de-commissioned and sold. This building was part of the camp and was used as our family's holiday home so I have known it all my life. He gave this part to me in 2007 at which time it was renovated.

We all loved going there as children and now my family enjoy it. It is in an amazing location next to the marshes so we could just carry kayaks down to the creek and paddle off.

The cottage is down a private road together with 3 others. It is about 100 yards from the Stiffkey marshes accessed by a public path that runs past the back of the cottage. It is a very quiet peaceful location in sight of the marsh and the sea.
