We had a fabulous weeks stay at Barn Owl Cottage. Location was perfect for us, away from all the hustle and bustle and it was super peaceful. Not having shops or a pub nearby wasn’t a problem for us, we prefer to be away from everything to fully recharge and enjoy family times together.Would highly recommend, and thanks to Piers for your help when needed.

Great location, and cottage was a good size with all the things we needed. It was comfortable and in a nice quiet location, but close enough to the sea and the towns of Aldeburgh and Woodbridge
