Sensitively refurbished, retaining many original features brimming with charm, this one-bedroom barn conversion is the epitome of cosy, tucked away in a picture-perfect corner of the Suffolk coast. The quaint village of Middleton is just 3 miles from the Suffolk Heritage Coast, with the north of the village bordering the RSPB Minsmere National Reserve, 4.5 miles from the property, allowing you to journey through idyllic coastal lagoons to discover some of the UK's rarest wildlife. You can spot even more wildlife at the precious habitat of Dunwich Heath and Beach, 6.5 miles away, home to special species such as the Dartford warbler, nightjar, woodlark and much more, perfect for a quiet and serene stroll. Take a walk through history at Framlingham Castle, 12.5 miles away, a magnificent 12th-century fortress surrounded by impressive parkland and a picturesque lake.

Through a shared entrance door and hallway, you’ll find the front door of the property, leading into an open-plan living, dining and kitchen area, finished to a high standard with contemporary furnishings and colour palette, featuring exposed timber beams. The well-equipped contemporary kitchen overlooks the whole space, complete with a breakfast bar and stools. The adjacent living area is complemented by a large comfortable sofa, armchair, wall-mounted Smart TV and a cosy feature wood burner. Back through the property, you’ll find a handy utility room that houses laundry appliances. The rest of the property comprises a spacious bedroom which features a super-king-size bed, as well as a contemporary en-suite wet room with a walk-in shower.

The property backs onto a shared grass area overlooking a wild meadow and water meadow, complete with a bistro table and chairs for the perfect spot to soak up your surroundings. Beyond the meadow, there is another large, shared grass area for you to explore.

The cottage was a beautiful renovation with quality fixtures and fittings with the exception of the bedding which was showing its age, pattern faded and stains evident. It was a good location with relatively easy access to the coast and places of interest although the ongoing road works could well impact on this.

Apart from the points above we had a comfortable stay and enjoyed the quiet location and its accessibility to many of the area's attractions especially Dunwich and Minsmere.

The stable cottage is situated in a quiet location at the edge of the village. It is tastefully decorated, comfortable and warm. We stayed for 3 days to visit Minsmere which is a 10 minute drive. Perfect for couples. We highly recommend a stay at the cottage.

A lovely property in a very quiet area, equipped and furnished to a very high standard.
