With excellent local knowledge and close relationships with property owners, we are able to guide you through your decision making and answer questions that only true local natives can.

Property information

Fantastic fully refurbished cottage in the heart of one of Suffolk’s prettiest villages with stunning views of the Box Valley. One end of the cottage has a large modern kitchen and dining area with direct views and access to a beautifully relandscaped garden, and at the other is a wonderfully comfortable and cozy sitting room with log burner. From the well-furnished bedrooms that share an immaculate bathroom are views of Stoke church, made famous by John Constable, and Polstead Village. Being just 100 yards from two of the best pubs in the area, along with access to bountiful walks and the village shop, this cottage is the perfect rural village getaway.
