I would say this place was style over substance. No nice little extras. Only a few tea bags. And a freezer full of someone elses food. Very odd. We couldn't get in when we arrived, but to give them thier due, they were quick to respond. There are things you need to know. The beds were rather hard. The towels, definitely exfoliating! Kitchen equipment very minimal. If you intend to cook I'd take what you need. But beautiful surroundings and a lovely sitting room with big windows to show off the beautiful spring garden.

Fabulous stay at Gardiners Cottage. Everything as described. Private, clean and quiet accommodation, but also close to everything that Suffolk has to offer. Hosts were very welcoming too. Highly recommended!

Myself and my two friends had a lovely peaceful stay. The pond and garden brought the wildlife and made it a bit different. The country walk to Eye was straightforward and we were rewarded with the castle ruins, shops and food options. Great stay.
