1 Bed in Orford (oc-m34121)

A characterful cottage, set over two levels and brimming with charm, this property is in the ideal location for a relaxing holiday for couples or solo travellers. Experience a quintessential Suffolk escape, just a short drive from the scenic countryside and coastline. Orford’s crown jewel is a striking 12th-century castle keep offering panoramic views over the River Ore and the surrounding countryside. Down by the quay, enjoy freshly caught seafood, take a river cruise to Orford Ness National Nature Reserve, or watch the boats drift by. Just 5 miles away, explore Snape Maltings, a cultural hub and home to galleries, boutique shops, and world-class concerts. Aldeburgh, a picturesque seaside town famed for its beach, fish and chips, and artistic heritage, is 9 miles away. Nature lovers can explore the nearby Rendlesham Forest, located 6 miles away, which offers scenic walking and cycling trails.


This is a gorgeous rural property situated in the garden of the owner’s home, but offering privacy during your stay. The building features beautiful wooden cladding, a reminder of Suffolk’s traditional timber-framed buildings. Access to the cottage is to the side of the house. One step up inside, the cottage is filled with enchanting rustic and farmhouse style, featuring a beautiful high-vaulted ceiling and exposed wooden beams that sit effortlessly alongside all the contemporary comforts, ensuring an unforgettable stay. The open-plan ground floor has a living/dining area which welcomes you with a calm and inviting ambience. The decor in the lounge and dining area features warm, natural hues, and with plenty of natural light flooding in, it creates a relaxing atmosphere. Pop a log on the wood burner and curl up on the plush sofa with a book and a warm drink, or catch up on your favourite box set on the Smart TV. Opposite the lounge seating, is the kitchen, featuring beautiful tiling, views over the countryside, and all the appliances needed to create a late brunch, a picnic to go, or a romantic dinner. Sit together at the wooden table to dine, thoughtfully placed near the doors so you can enjoy the view outside. To the rear of the property is a contemporary bathroom with a shower over the bath and a WC. From the lounge, head up to the attractive mezzanine level with a king-size bedroom featuring a large window affording delightful views across the river, Havergate Island RSPB bird reserve and the marshes.


Outside, a private garden area features a bistro table and chairs, making it the ideal spot for afternoon tea, evening drinks, or al fresco dining. As the garden is within the owner’s garden, their dogs may come and say hello! Private parking is available for one car.
