East Barn Cottage

Who will swoon first at the depths of open Suffolk countryside that greet your family and Fido at East Barn Cottage. The great outdoors awaits, the tennis court calls and the fresh and bright interiors say relax.

Country cool

Crisp as Wimbledon whites on the inside, welcome into the Scandi cool interiors of East Barn Cottage. Generous in light and space, find your comfort zone in the open plan social area that oozes city apartment chic. Sprawl on either sofa with that novel you can’t put down or sneak an afternoon nap while the others aim for aces on the court outside.

When the sun goes down huddle around the dining table to debate the line judge calls and who really knows the rules for the lawn croquet match on tomorrow’s itinerary. Let the hours while away in the beam of the feature lighting and crank up the wood burner if a rural chill descends on the evening. For your first coffee of the day, catch the early air of the day from the picturesque patio. Once everyone else awakes persuade them on to the benefits of a round of garden games in the lush communal grounds or wander into nearby Knodishall for a bite of brunch. Little more than a skip, hop and jump, and you’ll find yourself at Aldeburgh with its beautiful boutiques, beach huts and ice creams.

Retire to one of three light and and cooly designed bedrooms. Catch a glimpse of the stars from the skyward angled windows as you nestle down into simply comfortable beds. There’s a perfect lightness for summer and an innate cosiness for winter. Create your own version of hygge in your perfectly form corner of Suffolk.

Bedrooms and bathrooms

The master suite with its myriad outlooks on the scenery outside is a restful corner of this idyllic retreat. A king size bed and en suite shower room call for long lie-ins and lazy mornings. The second bedroom also welcomes you to sink into crisp linen adorning another king size bed, while the third bedroom provides twin beds. Soak away what’s left of any stress in the family bathroom.

Special Offer: Available at reduced pricing for four people using two of the three bedrooms.
