The Old Orchard Cottages are situated in a secluded wooded setting in rural Suffolk just a few miles from the glorious Heritage Coast. these four beautifully-furnished no-smoking cottages are designed for comfort and relaxation.

Inside, each comes with stripped floors, original art and Persian rugs; outdoors, each cottage has a raised decking area for eating, drinking and barbecues.

The cottages are reached down a private tree-lined drive, and are set in fully landscaped grounds with mature trees and orchards, in the peaceful setting of the owners' 35 acre farm.

The Cottages
Each of the four cottages sleeps up to 4 adults (plus baby), and features a spacious living room, country-style kitchen, and two bedrooms. There are two types of two-bedroom cottage: one with a single bathroom, the other with two en-suite bathrooms - one bathroom has a bath and hand-held shower, the other has a shower.

Modern facilities include dishwasher, washing machine, tumble dryer, DVD colour TV, stereo, cot and high chair.

Days Out
The grounds of the farm are fully accessible for rambling and nature watching, with wide wild natural field margins. In addition, the traditional market towns of Halesworth and Bungay are 5 miles away whilst Beccles, gateway to the southern Norfolk Broads and offering boat hire, lies 7 miles away. To the East, Southwold's elegant seaside delights are a step back to a more elegant time and reflect the unchanged nature of this friendly part of Suffolk.

Other fine attractions including RSPB Minsmere, cycle hire in Dunwich, fishing, riding and golf, can all be found within a 9 mile radius of The Old Orchard. Slightly further afield visitors can explore a number of castles, stately homes and family attractions such as miniature railways, fun fairs and country fairs.

The local shop is 1 mile from the cottages and a pub serving good food is 1 mile away (although a few serving 'beers only' are much closer!).

For the gourmet, the attractions of the area include fabulous fish restaurants such as Butley Oysterage in Orford, complete with smokeries. For those who enjoy fine beers there is the famous Adnams of Southwold as well as St Peter's Brewery which produces tradional style beers such as 'Honey Porter' and a number of speciality beers. Adnams also has a talent for buying wines with its own wine import business and has a tremendous reputation for its own selection of sparkling and dessert wines. A visit to the Adnams wine shop in Southwold is a must!

For kids of all ages there is nothing like a walk on the beach or crabbing at Walberswick. We could go on, we love the area so much, but believe you should find out for yourselves!
