2 Bed in Saxtead (oc-pera)

Situated in a tranquil location in the Suffolk countryside, this characterful Grade II-listed cottage has been thoughtfully decorated throughout to create a cosy, warm and welcoming escape for couples retaining many of its original features. The charming market town of Framlingham lies 2.8 miles away where days can be spent wandering through the streets in search of the finest cafes, or visiting the historic English Heritage Site of Framlingham Castle.


You’ll feel immediately at home stepping into the living room with its plush sofa, exposed brick fireplace and beautiful beams lining the ceiling. In the evenings, light the wood burner, pop a film on the TV and snuggle up on the sofa for a romantic evening in. Right beside the window, you’ll also find a quaint table and chairs for two which is a scenic place to sit and enjoy a meal with one another. Next door is the country-style kitchen full of quaint features including a traditional wood burner set into an alcove. Upstairs, on the first floor, is the lovingly decorated master bedroom, boasting a king-size bed and ornate windows, as well as the bathroom. The bathroom includes a comfortable bathtub and a relaxing rainfall shower for refreshing. Up the second staircase you’ll find the final bedroom, with a single bed and a desk. The garden is a lovely private courtyard area with seating for four, a BBQ and a small stretch of lawn.


Ideally situated to enjoy both the coast and the countryside, within just 15 miles you can be on the sandy beach of Southwold, strolling along the promenade and eating tasty ice creams with gorgeous views of the seaside. Take a trip to RSPB Minsmere (7 miles) to explore the coastal nature reserve which is home to some of the UK’s rarest wildlife in the diverse habitats of woodland, grassland, heath and more. Alternatively, head to Dunwich (13 miles) for a wander through the ancient forest to soak in the natural beauty of this part of the country.
