Great location and very quiet at night (dark skies so photographed the Northern Lights) Close to A12, so easy to travel out to places quickly. Immaculately presented and clean. Beds comfortable. Great welcome basket with delicious biscuits, cereal and granola. Had all the essentials in the property such as foil, cling film, kitchen towel, dishwasher tablets, shower gel and hand wash. The flowers in the bedroom and lounge were a very nice touch. So overall we were very happy with the property and had a very comfortable stay.

This is our second stay in this beautiful Yurt. The decoration and furnishings are outstanding, everything is pristine with quality bed linen and towels. The yurt is totally private for a romantic escape. Everything is provided to cook a meal in the kitchen or cook on the BBQ, super outdoor furniture and a small fire pit to light in the evening. The shower is superb with plenty of hot water. There a a few local pubs within a short drive if you wish to venture out. Many thanks again Charlie for a wonderful stay and hope to book again!

What a lovely cottage! It was comfortable and clean. The hosts were very helpful and accessible which made everything go smoothly. The location was central but quiet and having horses near was an added bonus. The local pub, The Queens Head, was delightful and the publican Steve made us feel like locals.

We were very comfortable in your cottage, and found everything we needed for our stay. We explored the surrounding countryside and little villages loved some of the delightful houses in the area, the weather was even better than we expected as it was late in the season thank you very much.

Beautiful location and well equipped spacious property. Loads of country walks directly from The Stables but the property is well located so Sudbury is within easy reach if you want to pick up some provisions. Easy access to may beautiful locations in Suffolk. Very dog friendly too.

Constable Cottage has been renovated to a high standard and well equipped and very comfortable. We have stayed in many cottages around the country and this is now one of our favourites. Ideal for 2 adults with a dog friendly garden back and front. We enjoyed al fresco dinners in the back garden most evenings. It is ideally located for walks around the charming village of Nayland. Fabulous dog walking from the cottage in several directions on good grassy paths and wide open spaces where it was safe for dogs to run free off the lead. The local deli is great for brunch and the gorgeous riverside ...more

We had an absolutely fantastic time at the Tea Caddy. The owners have made a great job of utilising the space - it was like the Tardis - it seemed bigger on the inside! We all took the stairs to the kitchen area very carefully as they are steep but it was fine and you can’t change that! The decoration and quality of the finish in the property was excellent and it made it a lovely place to spend a week. I honestly don’t think we’d change a thing and we all said we would happily go back. Thank you also for the wonderful welcome pack and for the extremely well stocked kitchen - we had...more

Overall the cottage was great. Spacious and well equipped. The surrounds were terrific and an absolute credit to the gardener. The information pack was first rate, and loaded with everything you'd need as someone new to the area. Would recommend for sure.

Duke’s Lodge is just as described on the website. It’s a very old building so expect beams galore, rough plaster and creaking sloping floors! However almost all mod cons are here (apart from a dishwasher). The kitchen is well stocked, the sofas are comfy as are the beds. Quality bedding and towels are a bit of a bonus. The central heating is efficient and the log burner was a welcome treat in early March. The local shop and the nearby farm shop provided all the food and wine we wanted and the Bildeston Crown serves delicious food! ( not cheap but worth every penny!!)

I wanted somewhere quiet to stay for a few days, which was both for business and pleasure. The Hayloft was perfect, a wonderful blend of comfort and quirkiness! It was beautifully presented, and immaculately clean, a real credit to the owners.

Brexit turned us away from Britain, but a tentative attempt at reconnecting with our former favourite country was a great success, not least because of the lovely accommodation Swan's Nest in Swan Street in Boxford: Very comfortable, full of atmosphere and a great 'base camp' for excursions to lovely spots in Suffolk. We'll be back - will you?

This was one of the nicest cottages we have ever stayed in. It was well presented, and well equipped and comfortable, as soon as we walked in we felt at home. The location was rural and peaceful with walks direct from the front door around the estate and on footpaths. It was a perfect location for exploring the lovely towns and countryside of Suffolk. The hosts had left a delightful welcome pack of local produce. We cannot wait to return to either this cottage or one of the others available at Belchamp Hall or through Idyllic Cottages who made the whole booking process easy and supported ...more

• The owners left us a welcome package of apple juice, bread, biscuits and eggs. All very welcome, especially the apple juice which, although looking challenging, was total nectar! • Yew Tree Barn is very well located for the “Constable Country” of Stoke-by-Nayland / Flatford / Dedham / East Bergholt etc. • Yew Tree Barn (YTB) is spacious, beautifully appointed and well equipped. Many places we stay are pretty but clearly have not considered that, having unpacked, you need to leave the suitcases / boxes and bags somewhere. This does not apply to YTB.

The Tryst is a gem. This beautifully restored cottage has been thoughtfully and sensitively decorated. It is well stocked with everything you could possibly need and its garden is a beautiful and tranquil place to relax and unwind. The AGA cooker was a particularly wonderful surprise that added to the authenticity and pleasure we had during our stay. Highly recommended.
