Simple, cosy cottage in beautiful Suffolk countryside, near Washbrook, Ipswich | Cottage in Washbrook
2 Bedroom Cottage in Ipswich, Washbrook
This is a beautiful semi-detached cottage, surrounded by fields, that has been in my family for over 50 years. It is simple (no TV, broadband or microwave) but it has everything you need for a quiet getaway or holiday surrounded by nature.
It is situated down a quiet single track lane, with very little passing traffic, but it is only 5 minutes off the A12 and about a 10 minute drive to Ipswich. The AONB of Dedham Vale (Constable country) is a 20 minute drive away and the coastal areas of Suffolk are close by (Felixstowe around 20 minutes; Orford, Walberswick, Thorpeness, Southwold, and Aldeburgh 40 minutes).
Other places of interest nearby include the medieval towns of Hadleigh, Kersey, Lavenham among many other picturesque villages. Ipswich offers retail therapy, cinema, theatre, indoor pool and so on.
More locally, there is a stable with horses and ponies for all ages and abilities a 10-minute walk away. There is a local community-owned pub in the village a short walk across the fields - The Brook in Washbrook - with a very popular restaurant specialising in gluten-free meals.
It is a perfect place to take young children. The garden is large and almost entirely laid to grass. A path in front of the cottage leads to a church that dates from Norman times. A stream down the lane is perfect for a game of Pooh sticks, and you can often see buzzards overhead or owls in the field opposite at dusk if you're lucky!
Inside, the cottage consists of a kitchen with pantry next door, a sitting-room with dining-table and wood burning stove and new sofa and armchair. Upstairs the main bedroom has a king-size bed, there's a twin bedroom and bathroom with bath and shower. It is perfect for four people.
There is garden table and chairs for eating outside on sunny days and a hammpck with stand that can be set up on the lawn. There is also a bell tent in the shed for an additional play space for children.
There are plenty of walks you can do from the door ( we have lots of maps and local guides to help you find your bearings) and if you are cyclists, the lanes nearby and further west take you through some lovely country and with hardly any traffic. We are keen cyclist ourselves and can suggest routes if this is something that appeals to you.
There is an incredible amount to do in the area whether you are interested in nature, sailing, historic houses, the seaside and beaches or simply looking to enjoy some peace and quiet!
Thanks very much for taking the time to find out about our cottage and please don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions.
best wishes,
Katy and Harvey
