French doors open to the terrace running along the front which has a table and chairs with cushions so that you can rustle up a meal on the BBQ (please bring charcoal) and eat outside during the warmer months.

Ufford is a favoured rural village. Famed for its medieval church with rare font cover; there are also two excellent pubs, The Crown gastro-pub and The White Lion, community pub of the year 2012 and The Greyhound in Pettistree is also worth a visit. Other things to note I am afraid we do not allow dogs at this property. Due to insurance limitations, we do not allow children at this property. As well as cooking basics, the fully equipped kitchen has a supply of oil, salt and pepper.
