We really enjoyed ourselves at Pound Cottage. It combines the benefits of an excellent location with a thoroughly modern and tastefully decorated cottage that still retains the original character of the building. This was our second visit to Suffolk and it confirms that we love the area, the way of life and the friendliness of the people. We are very envious of the people who live in the rural areas in and around Lavenham. Perhaps I should apply for a job at the Suffolk tourist board after these glowing recommendations? We look forward to visiting Pound Cottage again Kindest Regards Ann and Paul

A lovely peaceful week, enjoyed the company, chickens and ducks. We would love to visit again when the Mill Wheel is restored. The cottage was comfortable, warm and had everything that we needed. Thank you for the welcome and beautiful local food. Bill & Mary

Just back from our 5 days at The Pump House where we all had a fabulous time. I would just like to say how much we enjoyed our stay at the Pump House (I am sure the spectacular weather helped a little). The property is unique and I have just recommended it to my sister whose husband is a Pump Engineer! As we wrote in the visitor's book the children and the dog were very impressed with the whole set-up - the river, the meadow, the chill-out room (a bedroom with a TV is a treat indeed for my two!). We had some wonderful walks including this morning a 7.30am breakfast picnic in a pine tree plantation somewhere between Stoke-by-Nayland and Polstead. Thank you for all the little extras that made the Pump House a home-from-home and our holiday one that will be remembered for a long time to come. We had to promise the kids that we will come back or I think you may have had a couple of sitting tenants!!

Ruth & Martin have worked very hard to develop their barn into a welcoming and comfortable holiday home. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The barn was a peaceful, tucked-away retreat for us and the dog. Loved the walks straight from the door through the country park and coastal path. We appreciated the pretty sitting area, complete with sun loungers - perfect for a good book and glass of wine!

Our only complaint is that 3 days is not enough! Relaxed, easy going, peaceful atmosphere and mercifully free of boutique hotel attitude (weve had bad experiences!). Charm and luxury without fuss.

The warmest, cosiest cottage experience in England! The attention to detail (local artwork, food provisions, suggested attractions, restaurants, rambling trails, fresh flowers and guest amenities), made the transition to settling in seamless. Instant relaxation. Your hosts are also very accommodating and professional. Well Done!

This is the perfect antidote to London life. We cant praise the place highly enough, even though we realise this might mean its fully booked, next time we want to come! The cottage definitely has the wow factor. We were totally in awe of all the finishing touches that really set this apart from other self catering accommodation. We will definitely, absolutely, without doubt be returning at some point in the near future!!

Work? Stress? After a few hours here we have forgotten it all. Orchard Cottage is the perfect chill out haven to return to, after a days exploring. This place combines the luxury of a Boutique Hotel with the sense of feeling at home. Log fires, ducks quacking, the scent of beeswax and honeysuckle it appeals to all the senses you really have thought of everything!

Paradise Found if you seek tranquillity, peace of mind and total relaxation, in the most perfect of settings. This is as good as it gets in self catering, next to nature. Nayland, Polstead and the river walk near Wissington are a must. Cant wait to return.
