Clearly the neighbours have issues with it being used as a holiday let and can be antagonistic. The kitchen is small, but well appointed, the issue is that the cutlery and crockery don't fit in the compact dish washer. I wouldn't recommend the house to anyone with movement limitations as the stairs are very tight and steep. manoeuvring bags up and down them was a struggle.

The house was compact, but very comfortable. The bed is a delight to sleep in, it is the best nights sleep I've had whilst staying away and once the heaters had chance to work, the house was very warm. (There are hot water bottles in the kitchen). The shower was perfect and the bath big enough to relax in. Loved the library and I didn't need the TV. All in all, a much better place to stay than a hotel.

Stairs were very steep and twisty, you had to be careful especially with a suitcase in your hand. But they added to the charm!

Cosy, everything we needed for self catering and comfortable bed

The stairs. They are very steep and difficult to get up and down. Taking suitcases up was challenging. Even my dog was scared of using them..

Location. Clean. We'll equipped.. the cottage is great for younger people..as a base to explore the area. And/ or just to chill out away from a city life. Garden and summer house we're lovely in the sunshine

We did think the cottage needed a deeper clean. We stripped down the kitchen draining rack ourselves as it had mould, easy to take apart, superficially looked clean but muck was accumulating. When I bent down to plug my hairdryer in the study I put my face into cobwebs. I do like spiders, they keep the flies away, but that wasn’t a welcome encounter! These are small comments, it’s gorgeous there, really!

We loved the quiet location, such a pretty traditional cottage. The books were a marvellous selection, both downstairs and in the little upstairs study. Although the stairs were very steep they were easy to manage using the rope on the wall, and coming down backwards was a great tip. We didn’t need to use the kitchen much as after breakfast we were out but appreciated all the facilities provided. The garden and summer house were lovely too. The bed was so comfortable. We stayed four nights, and would definitely stay again if visiting that area.

Oddly couldn’t find any scissors which would have been handy and more regular drinking glasses would also have been nice. I don’t mind soda or orange juice in a wine glass but my husband isn’t that fancy

Although a bit hard to find, once we did were very happy with the cozy and quirky cottage. The summer house was an added bonus and a brilliant place for coffee in the morning and a glass of wine in the evening with friends.

The cottage is adequate for a couple of nights, but compared to many that we have rented it is sparsely equipped. There were no teaspoons (not the end of the world!). The sofa is extremely uncomfortable although it suited the room. We arrived to a myriad of cobwebs and floor fluff indicating that it hadn't been cleaned for our arrival. The stairs!! We looked at them aghast when we first arrived, but had mastered the knack by the end of our stay. I do feel they should be mentioned in the cottage description as older, less stabilised folk might struggle and find them dangerous. The quirkiness of the property helps you to forgive the errors on the owners part and it truly is a 'get away from the world' bolthole.

Cosy, quirky cottage with an extremely comfortable bed. The hamlet is peaceful and picturesque with lots of fabulous dog walks on the designated footpaths around the cottage. Half an hour to the coast and 10 minutes to shops for your supplies (no welcome pack or village amenities so remember to bring everything with you).

Shower stopped working on 3rd morning. Any light sleepers take earplugs: the local rooster is relentless from sun up to around 10am.

Perfect for one person. Comfortable bed. Good kitchen facilities, lovely library of books. Good wifi & TV streaming options.

It's not large, there isn't a lot of headroom and the stairs are steep and narrow. It was all as described and what we expected, so we've certainly no complaints, but 2 of us and a dog couldn't realistically stay for longer than 3 nights - other people might be fine for longer though.

Very well equipped clean cottage in a good location for our trip. Kitchen seemed to have everything despite being a tiny space, including all the essentials you wouldn't want to pack for a couple of nights away. Great selection of books, including useful walking maps for the area. Would happily stay again for a 2-3 night break.

Needed some maintenance. A broken back of chair in lounge, loose, good job I noticed before I sat down. The hot tap in bath comes right off, could be dangerous as the water is scorching, I couldn’t turn straight off.

Nice little cottage

The cottage was expensive for the standard of accommodation in my experience, as a seasoned traveller. As others have said, the sofa was ok but not the most comfortable. The bathroom was, in our view, a little tired and could do with refurbishment. The stairs, as others have said, are very narrow/steep and would not suit anyone with any kind of mobility problems or even someone of a larger build. Great care has to be taken when going up or down stairs. Cleaning was not as good as we would have liked - with dust/dirt in the bedside cabinet drawers and on some surfaces including skirting boards in the bathroom, some floors and elsewhere in the cottage. Taps/shower screen etc needed finishing off with a dry cloth to remove watermarks. The washing up bowl in the kitchen was particularly grubby. Whilst the kitchen was reasonably well equipped - with nice crockery, plenty of cutlery, a good cooker and a microwave - we could have done with a baking tray and a potato peeler. There was no welcome pack as such, just some bits left from previous guests - which was surprising given the price we had paid and being greeted with milk/bread etc would have been helpful

Library Cottage is a very small, rustic property in a quiet village not far from Woodbridge. The location is very quiet and restful. Parking by the side of the property was easy. Access via a code to obtain the keys from a security box was straightforward. The kitchen was reasonably well equipped; the heating worked well; the wi-fi and TV were good; the bed was comfortable and the shower was hot and powerful enough. There is a good farm shop/cafe on the A12 doing excellent breakfasts just 12-14 minutes walk away. Overall, the cottage suited and met our needs and provided a comfortable and enjoyable stay.

Not much, no teaspoons in property. Also, the toilet didn't flush well.

Cottage is lovely, very clean, and has a great location. Very romantic getaway, great for dog walks our fur baby loved it also. It was our 2nd stay at the cottage, and I hope to return.

cleanliness and needs updating. shabby chic is not to my liking cupboards need sorting and cutlery lack of tea spoons and smaller spoons not serving spoons the stairs should be shown at 75 and 83 they we’re challenging

quiet location just off A12 good dog walking area quirky no strict rules with the dogs the wood burner

Stayed in June 2023

the stairs were a bit of a challenge at first😎

location, cottage ambiance, back garden with summer house, facilities: great shower, smart tv, fire/dishwasher/wash/machine/dryer-we didn’t use them would be great for wet or cold weather; bed settee downstairs; ease of getting to places of interest such as Sutton Hoo.
