"The property more than met our expectations. Woodland Lodge is one of the best properties we have ever stayed at. Charlotte and John were very welcoming and helpful without being intrusive. Would certainly return if in the area" - Frederick Parkin The space Put the outside world on pause at this spacious cottage, which sits in tranquil surroundings only 7 miles from the historic town of Framlingham. Located close to the Suffolk Heritage Coast, the cottage boasts large living areas and an enclosed garden with access to two-and-a-half acres of private woodland. Perfect for couples seeking a romantic getaway. Your rural hideaway has been finished to an incredible standard, its attractive garden setting the scene as you wander up the gravel pathway and into a characterful interior flooded with natural light and contemporary furnishings across oak flooring. Enjoy lazy days or cosy nights sprawled across the sitting room furniture, perhaps between meals crafted in the kitchen/diner whose French doors can be thrown open during warmer months. Retreat to the confines of the king-size bedroom when night time comes, and start the day right in the large bathroom opposite. The enclosed cottage garden is a wonderful place to enjoy morning coffees and evening cocktails surrounded by attractive plants and shrubs. If you can tear yourselves away from this colourful slice of paradise, why not explore the two-and-a-half acres of woodland beyond belonging to the cottage’s owners? Numerous footpaths crisscross the countryside surrounding Wilby (500 metres), an attractive hamlet typical of the villages found across the county. Head to Stradbroke (2 miles) for a pint and essentials, or get to know more about the history of the area at the beautiful market town of Framlingham (7 miles). The Suffolk Heritage Coast is home to captivating shorelines, with a trip to Dunwich’s sand and shingle beach (18 miles) worth the journey alone.
