Beautiful cottage

West Stow is close to the Kings forest which is great if you have dogs or great if you don’t. The cottage was perfect and wildlife is all around. The horse in the field whilst washing dishes, the munkjac deer crossing the field and all kinds of birds made the trip memorable. A lovely place for a restful stay but with plenty of fun trips on the doorstep.

Beautiful house in lovely private garden

The house is spacious, very well equipped and with a lovely country-house style decor. Fabulous setting in the grounds of a beautiful Elizabethan manor house. The cottage has its own enclosed and spacious garden. A very special experience. We really loved it.

Cute cottage

If you are looking to stay in a quintessential Suffolk cottage in a very quiet country setting, this will take some beating. It was bitterly cold during our stay and it was fairly difficult to keep warm in the cottage. Staying during a warmer month of the year would have made our time more comfortable, but it's a lovely place to feel at home in. Eileen is a great host, who is extremely attentive, friendy and helpful.

A wonderfully old-school, dog-friendly, comforting home from home, offering incredible peace and quiet. Comfy firm beds and soft pillows, a little hall for boots, coats and dog paraphernalia, a cosy farmhouse kitchen that can be closed off to keep dogs from the sitting room, every form of coffee-making equipment offered, large fridge (with welcome bottle of milk) and separate freezer, lots of hot water (it takes a few minutes to come through!), efficient heating (though bedrooms were hard to heat in the dead of winter during our visit but that makes for a good night's sleep), good wifi and TV with all the streaming channels available to log into, and a super-efficient wood burner, along with board games in the snug area. Wouldn't change a thing!

Quaint and Cozy in West Suffolk

The cottage was everything I would expect in a historical English cottage with vibrant walled gardens and cozy accommodations. (The living room furniture could have been more comfortable). It was a perfect location to visit the many small towns, parks, cathedrals and castles. Our hostess, Eileen was very accommodating and even gave us a tour of the old (originally built in 1530) West Stow Hall. I would definitely stay again. I even got to get her raspberries and rhubarb from the garden and put cut flowers in the cottage!

Fabulous from start to finish, the cottage was as described, surprisingly spacious, clean and cosy. Eileen is a welcoming host, friendly and helpful. The garden is gorgeous, such a lovely space to sit and relax in the morning with breakfast and of an evening with a glass of wine! The beds were comfortable and we enjoyed blissful, undisturbed sleep in them. I’d recommend Gardeners Cottage to anybody looking for a place to stay in the area, its countryside setting but with close proximity to Bury St Edmund’s and all it has to offer make for the perfect stay.

This cottage looks like it’s been taken straight out of the Secret Garden. The grounds are so beautiful and peaceful and a wildlife spotters dream. My two children (8 & 13) loved the bedroom they shared and had so much fun in the gardens. It’s perfectly located for some many things. We enjoyed a day at Southwold and a day at Thetford Forest. Eileen and Andy were fantastic hosts and would do anything for you. We will definitely be looking to book again

The Gardener’s Cottage was amazing! It is perfectly located to escape from the hustle and bustle of the city, but close enough to Bury and other locations. West Stow Hall is beautiful and full of history. Waking up to watch the horses was also nice amenity! Many thanks to the wonderful owners. We hope to be back one day.

Perfekter Aufenthalt im Osten Englands

Die Unterkunft ist sehr gut ausgestattet, es hat für uns an nichts gefehlt. Selbst einige Spiele usw. für Kinder sind vorhanden. Wir haben von hier aus diverse Ausflüge in die nahe und weitere Umgebung unternommen, die Lage ist ausgezeichnet dafür. Ein großer Supermarkt ist in wenigen Minuten zu erreichen. Der Garten und die Umgebung sind wunderschön.
