  A wonderfully peaceful and cosy retreat. We spent a week here with our three boys. Enough space to spread out and run around. Beautiful gardens and lovely family walks from the door. Lots of lovely thoughtful touches - more great books than we had time to read. A place which forces you to slow down. Relaxed but luxurious. A real treat, a lovely hammock, collecting eggs from the chickens and the wonderful selection of books and games

  Hi Grove Cottages/Cherry and Steve An overdue note to thank you all so much for our fabulous stay at Little Cote last weekend. From the warm welcome from Cherry (complete with fresh lettuce from the garden) to the soft furnishings, comfy beds, well laid out kitchen and fabulous shower, not to mention spectacular gardens and setting we and our Australian ladies absolutely loved it. It is a great location for exploring the true Suffolk countryside and was a lovely restful space to come back to each day. Many thanks and kind regards Suzanne May and Family

  Breathtakingly beautiful, full of delightful charm, so clean and cosy. Beautifully placed books make me want to stay here and read forever!

Thank you for allowing us to share your wonderful cottage!

  Charming cosy cottage sympathetically restored by the owners. Tasteful interior, luxury towels and bedding. Fully equipped, including games, books and DVDs. Everything thought of for a very welcoming countryside break. Lovely country walks from the front door. Seen deer, horses and even a barn owl. Beautiful views from upstairs windows. Quiet, tranquil location. Ideal for that relaxed break from all the hustle and bustle. Will be back!!

• Thursday, 3rd of January, 2019, Richard:

  The most beautiful cottage in the perfect setting! It's the most luxurious, warm, cosy and beautiful place anyone could wish to be.

• Sunday, 28th of May, 2017, Charlotte:
  

  Perfect set up for 2 families of 4. Beautiful accommodation but the USP has to be the freedom it afforded our children. They loved playing in the meadow - heavenly! We will definitely be back.

• Monday, 22nd of May, 2017, Sue:

  We were blown away by the quality of everything from the welcome pack, accommodation and hosting by Steve. Fantastic location for visiting the area although we had to force ourselves to go out, as the cottage is so cosy. We were completely bowled over with the charm and cosiness; here for the weekend nothing more we could have wished for.

• Sunday, 5th of March, 2017, Rosalind:
  

  Have often used Grove Cottages; always beautiful, always reliable, good to know what to expect.

• Sunday, 26th of February, 2017, Kate:
  

  We visit Suffolk annually and always feel at home wherever we stay but particularly so with Little Cote. Storm Doris kept us anchored closer to home this time around and the cottage was just perfect for hunkering down, snug by the fire. It's been beautifully thought out for guests and Steve & Cherry were extremely obliging. We are already discussing coming back to Little Cote again. We've stayed in numerous Suffolk cottages and they have all been wonderful but for us Little Cote pips them to the post!! We love the additional space, the layout, the modern touches mingling with the age of the cottage. We plan to return.

• Monday, 30th of January, 2017, Louise:
  

  Absolutely lovely cottage, would have loved to come for longer! So peaceful yet close enough to reach A14 and to explore. Everything was great thank you.

  Lovely, homely cottage to really feel away from it all.

• Thursday, 25th of August, 2016, Anne & Jeremy:
  

  Design and detailing a complete delight from furnishings to finishings, towels to DVDs. Our tastes are one!

We loved the warm welcome and extra little touches; the welcome basket, the flowers and the extensive book, music and film collection. We loved how secluded and private it felt too. Thanks so much!

• Sunday, 8th of May, 2016, Lawrence & Donna:
  

  The cottage was perfect for us. I'm known to be quite demanding in terms of cleanliness and quality, I can say I was not disappointed. Everything was to a high standard and we all felt very comfortable. Wish we cold have stayed longer.

  A superb house, with great attention to detail.

  An outstanding cottage in a beautifully peaceful, rural location. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We stay in many self catering properties and can confirm that this cottage is on par with the best. There has clearly been a great deal of care and thought put in to making it a cosy and comfortable home from home. We really appreciated little touches like fresh flowers, cooking oil, coals in the BBQ, washing line and pegs.....so many details!

  "Lovely cottage, cosy and homely. We recommend Melford Hall and Ickworth for lovely days out. Very indulgent scones with jam and clotted cream at Wyken Hall and we had the lovely gardens almost to ourselves. Helmingham Hall gardens are also worth a visit. Ate at The Coach House for a somewhat expensive treat but worth every penny- Honor welcomes you into her home as a guest"

  "We had a lovely four days here in a very relaxing and comfortable cottage. Everything you could wish for; good local food cooked and eaten here, enjoyed every minute of being in a lovely cottage, even sat outside and had dinner. All in all, one of the best cottages we have stayed in and we will be coming back here again and again. Thank you Cherry & Steve, see you next time"

  "An idyllic combination of comfort and relaxation, paired with beautiful walks and Monopoly close to a roaring fire. Wyken Hall is a gem and a temptingly expensive one at that! All in all this is a slice of heaven and an antidote to reality. Thank you for providing such a beautiful house and all the thoughtful finishing touches including cup cake trays!"

• Friday, 31st of May, 2013, James:
  

  A really cosy friendly cottage with everything we could need. The extra bed downstairs was a life saver and made all the difference. The owners told us about Wyken Farm & Vineyard – what a great place with an exceptional restaurant. Thank you for telling us about this.

  We had a wonderful time – what a lovely cottage!

• Saturday, 18th of May, 2013, Darren:
  

  What a find! We have travelled extensively and always stay in houses or apartments and I have to say that Little Cote is the best that we have stayed in. The facilities are great: the decor is like something from an interiors magazine. The beds were comfortable and the lounge with wood burner was very cosy. We had great weather and spent hours in the wildflower meadow attached to the cottage. My gran who is 97 has asked if we can come again (how can we refuse) so we plan to stay again next July and we will hopefully bring along our Dalmatians.

• Monday, 13th of May, 2013, Adam:
  

  It’s been lovely

  We had a wonderful time staying in Little Cote during the weekend. The cottage is beautiful and the open fire was a lovely treat. The beds were so comfortable and everything we needed was there. We will certainly be returning and I would recommend to anyone – probably the nicest cottage I have stayed in. Thank you.

  This is our third time at Grove Cottages and have always had a wonderful time. Little Cote is our favourite cottage so far.

• Friday, 22nd of March, 2013, Stephen:
  

  The cottage and the holiday exceeded our expectations – muddy walks in wild weather, pretty villages, lazing by the fire – have tried and failed to read all your books and listen to your music – oh dear, we will have to come again.

• Friday, 15th of March, 2013, Nigel & Alison:
  

  Not even the bitter cold March wind and snow, could detract from our stay in this very comfortable, tasteful and classic Suffolk Cottage. Definitely as good as it looks and is described on the Grove Cottage website – though maybe the reality is better.

• Sunday, 3rd of March, 2013, Linda:
  

  Your cottage is lovely. We had a nice short getaway from London. Thank you for allowing short stay + dogs! Great to experience more of the UK countryside (Canada originally)

• Monday, 11th of February, 2013, Nicola:
  

  Super stylish and very cosy cottage. We thoroughly enjoyed it and all said it has probably the best cottage we’ve stayed in for long time.

• Friday, 18th of January, 2013, Peter & Kate:
