Beautiful Victorian House in one of Suffolk’s Prettiest Villages
This cottage will really appeal to guests looking for a characterful cottage in an unspoilt village location, with great walks.
The Experience
This beautiful little Victorian House is in one of Suffolk’s prettiest villages set in the beautiful Stour Vale.
It has a lovely ‘Cottage’ garden which is fully enclosed and very close by you can walk along the footpath by the river Stour, which runs through the village. There are walks in all directions and little lanes to cycle down
Cottage Walk Through
Cottage Walk Through
You enter the cottage from the off road courtyard, where you can park your car, and through a gate into the pretty back garden. The kitchen breakfast room opens out through French doors onto a glass covered patio where you can enjoy a meal in comfort looking out into this lovely walled ‘Cottage’ garden.
Beyond the kitchen there is a cosy little dining room with many original Victorian features including a hidden ‘cupboard’ staircase
The dining room leads through to a very comfortable sitting room with a lovely open log fire.
Behind the cupboard door in the dining room are the stairs up to the 3 bedrooms and bathroom; typical of a Victorian cottage, these stairs are quite steep with treads narrower than modern stairs. Care is therefore needed when using them.
My Aunt had the same kind of hidden staircase and until I found out that they were actually behind a door in her sitting room, I always though she never went to bed but was some kind of ‘Super Aunt’ on the go day and night.
Upstairs there is a large double bedroom a small single bedroom and a tight double bedroom overlooking the garden.
The bathroom has a bath with a shower fixed above it with glass pull out panels.
There is central heating throughout.
Romney is set back slightly from the main road that runs through this pretty village, its entrance is through its back garden so it faces towards the sun and away from the road. Romney enjoys private off-road parking
This cottage will really appeal to guests looking for a characterful cottage in an unspoiled village location with great walks and pubs.
Please note that outside High Season this cottage offers a reduced rate for just two guests, who use one bedroom only.
The Garden
The owners are keen gardeners and have created a really pretty area behind this house, part of which winds down to their own house and part of which is the pretty walled garden that Romney looks out onto.
There are 2 places to sit out in the garden to enjoy sunshine in the morning or afternoon and one of them is covered so even on less than perfect day it is still possible to sit out if it’s warm enough and enjoy a meal or glass of wine ‘Al Fresco’.
Outside
The village of Cavendish is particularly pretty with a beautiful Village Green captured by many painters and photographers because of its perfectly placed Suffolk Pink cottages and historic church. Cavendish has 1 pub The Five Bells and Long Melford is a short drive away with many excellent Gastro Pubs and restaurants.
There is a community shop, a tearoom and there is the excellent Willow Tree Farm Shop with a cafe less than a mile away.
There are very pretty walks and cycle rides straight from the Cottage.
Green Credentials
The owners have retained much of the Victorian character of this cottage and added to it with period furniture, and where possible eco friendly cleaning materials are used.
There are maps to guide you round the footpaths to enjoy the local area
Please note that there are no bikes available at this cottage, but you are welcome to bring your own or if you call the office you can pick some up from Grove Farm which is just 15 minutes away and cycle round the lovely countryside there.
Local Area
Cavendish is just a few minutes’ drive up river from Long Melford which is where the TV series Lovejoys was based and is a bustling Medieval Village crammed with pubs, restaurants, shops, antique shops and warehouses and 2 stately homes:
Kentwell Hall is world famous for its Tudor Re-enactments and a fabulous place to visit as it is so untouched in all its moated Tudor Splendour
Melford Hall is also very impressive and owned by The National Trust who state: “Around every corner there’s a new twist in the story – from Beatrix Potter sketches to collections of naval paintings and Chinese porcelain”
The famous ‘Wool’ Church and the stately homes of Kentwell Hall and Melford Hall (NT) are just on the other side of the Green.

Supermarkets and shops are within a 10 minute drive.
The famous village of Lavenham ‘England’s best preserved Medieval Village’ is just 8 miles away.
The pretty village of Clare with its Antique Warehouse and walks round the castle ruins and up the disused railway footpath beside the river is just 2 miles away and always a treat.
There are many great country pubs, some special Gastro pubs like The Crown Inn at Stoke-by-Nayland, The Black Lion in Long Melford and some high quality restaurants like The Great House or The Swan in Lavenham and many more scattered around the local villages.
Please see my Local Guide tab for more information.
This area is amazingly rural and untouched by city life, with tiny single track lanes leading nowhere or to a pub, footpaths galore and tiny Medieval Villages where time seems to have stood still.
If you are staying for more than a weekend then a day out at the unspoilt Suffolk Coast is always a lovely trip.
The coast starts just 30 minutes away at Colchester or Ipswich and our favourite beaches and places on the coast are between 70 – 100 minutes away, places like Pin Mill, Nacton, Levington, Orford, Aldeburgh, Frinton, Dunwich, Southwold and Mersey Island.
The nearby Medieval Villages of Long Melford, famed for its setting for the Lovejoys TV series, Nayland, sitting prettily on the river Stour, Polstead, with its bluebells woods and impressive views over the Box river valley are all close by and there are many more tiny villages with lovely walks and Pubs to explore.
This is an area you can feel a million miles away from City life and really relax and enjoy just being part of.

What the Guests Say...
Beautiful quirky cottage located in an equally beautiful village, lovely traditional features with everything you could need for a stay away with friends of family !
Very dog friendly (treats and bowls) and beautiful garden. Great open fire and welcoming hosts. Cosy and quirky, lots of hot water. Wood supply great and good value, easy to get warm.
Fantastic cottage with small but perfect enclosed garden. Network of footpaths through many fields full of nature – a rare treat these days!
Superb cottage and amenities, friendly welcome
What a wonderful cottage in a lovely setting! We walked part of the Stour Valley path to Clare and back again using one of your excellent guide books. It was perfect! Such small touches really made our stay extra relaxing. it was just a shame that all restaurants so we availed ourselves of your BBQ instead which may have been even better than eating out. Thank you for offering up this cottage to us.
Beautiful cottage and garden, great stay. Warm welcome from Sue & Peter
Lovely welcoming place to stay, very clean and well looked after with so many personal touches.
This is probably our 8th Grove Cottage stay and they all have a lovely cosy feeling, are well appointed and appreciate the welcome pack for a tasty breakfast the first morning. We’ll be back for No.9!
We found the cottage to be nicely furnished, with comfortable beds and a cosy ambience. Plenty of room to relax and the house was well heated (May weather was cold). The owners were welcoming and informative. The information provided and what to do locally, were impressively well organised. We would whole heartedly recommend to stay here. On, and he garden was very pretty. Genuinely think this is an excellent cottage to holiday in
Thoroughly recommend this beautiful cottage. So tasteful in decor and incredibly cosy. What a wonderful welcome too and so helpful. Can’t wait to come again!!
The toys and the non bio washing products were a great help. Was very kind to let us check in early
Romney provided us with a perfect weekend break. Cottage was super clean and the cosy fire made for a very relaxing time. Hope to be back. Thank you!
Had a wonderful time, cottage was beautiful.
Another wonderful stay at a very special cottage
We didn’t come far but it made us realise that we don’t often venture into Suffolk but this, like Norfolk, is wonderful countryside. The cottage was lovely and cosy and we felt ‘at home’ straight away. Would definitely come again as so much more to explore and do.
Fantastic cottage – extremely well equipped and a beautiful little gem in a wonderful village.
Very enjoyable – excellent!
A great cottage located in an attractive and friendly village. We received a warm welcome and will happily return
The cottage was very comfortable, tastefully decorated with great attention to detail. A perfect break in a delightful village.
A lovely cosy cottage with everything you need for a very comfortable stay. Excellent hosts, very accommodating with our early check in. The cottage is spotlessly clean and we would definitely recommend a stay
We had a relaxing stay – love coming to Suffolk!
Lovely cottage, very appealing on eyes and senses. Well stocked with equipment, everything working. Good feeling here, loved outside under the glass!
Romney is a wonderful cottage, lovingly decorated throughout and even better than the photos. We felt relaxed as soon as we arrived and everything you need for a relaxing break is here. We especially enjoyed eating in the garden, with all the wildlife, just fantastic! Cavendish is a gorgeous village, locals are so friendly. Farm shop is a must! Thank you Sue & Peter – great hosts!
Thank you for allowing us to stay in your wonderful cottage. We enjoyed it immensely.
This is our fourth Grove Cottage but our first visit to Romney and it lived up to all our expectations. It’s warm and cosy, a lovely mix of old and new and is very well equipped. The thoughtful personal touches makes it a true home from home.
The cottage is beautiful and in an exquisite setting. It is exceptionally well equipped and the welcome pack was excellent. We’ve had a lovely weekend and feel completely relaxed. Thank you
A beautiful cottage and the perfect place to spend a relaxing weekend. Thanks for making us feel so welcome and we’re already looking forward to coming back.
We loved our stay at Romney Cottage. We had such a warm welcome from Sue & Peter. The cottage is lovingly and beautifully furnished. We were here for the Christmas week visiting family and were so touched by the Christmas tree and decorations and the welcome basket with Prosecco. We all loved the cottage and playing games by the log fire. Also amazing to have a cot and high chair provided for our two year old. Such a beautiful area
We have had a lovely pre Christmas break. The cottage was lovely and cosy and we were made to feel very welcome in the village.
We celebrate our anniversary every year in a Grove Cottage and have never been disappointed yet…Romney Cottage is perfect for a long weekend
Sue & Peter, many thanks for the use of Romney – a lovely relaxing time was had by all.
I’m going to be very boring and agree with all the positive things everybody else has said about the cottage. It was perfect for our long weekend break.
Thank you so much for everything. We had a lovely weekend in your beautiful cottage. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves – this is our second visit here and we hope to be back – it is so cosy and beautiful!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Romney. What a cosy and comfortable place to spend a weekend! We received a warm welcome from Sue and were grateful for the wonderful basket of supplies. Cavendish is a beautiful village. I am sure we will be back to explore the Suffolk countryside further. All of the beds were very comfortable and the cottage is very well equipped for all the needs of a family. Clearly a lot of thought has gone into making the house as practical and enjoyable as possible. Thank you.
This was a birthday treat and what a lovely treat it was! Beautiful cottage in a lovely area. The cottage is so well resourced and the owners are so welcoming, they came to check that we were settled in. We would definitely recommend this cottage! All fantastic 🙂
Really lovely cottage with comfortable beds. Thanks for the bacon and eggs which made a delicious breakfast. Went on lots of walks in and around Cavendish. Overall a really enjoyable long weekend. Thank you
First of all this box is not big enough to publish all our positive comments, but in a nutshell, fantastic holiday cottage, area has you busy every day. Hosts were the nicest people we have ever met at a holiday let.
Who needs to go abroad?! We’ve enjoyed two weeks of fantastic weather in an absolutely fabulous cottage, in a beautiful picturesque village. Many thanks for allowing us to stay in your beautiful home, so worth our 1,000 mile round journey to go here and back!
A warm welcome from Sue, a very nice food hamper that we enjoyed. The cottage is well appointed, everything you could need. We loved sitting in the garden having breakfast and a glass of wine or two in the evenings. The lights around the garden are very pretty.
We have been thoroughly and delightfully impressed by the warm welcome from our “hosts” Sue and Peter, as well as the high standard of the cottage. Absolutely no stone had been left unturned as we couldn’t fault anything! We’ll be back here certainly and will try out some other cottages in the Grove portfolio.
We absolutely loved our stay in Romney. From the gorgeous garden to Well Appointed Cottage, all was perfect. Sue & Peter are wonderful and thoughtful hosts. Thank you.
Beautiful cottage! Home from home. Wished we didn’t have to leave so soon. Perfect!
Romney is just perfect. Well equipped for all your needs. We made full use of the garden as the weather was kind to us. Everything here is quality. The information packs are very well put together, would highly recommend to anyone thinking of visiting the area. This is probably the only cottage I would be able to give such high scores to out of the many we have stayed in. Grove Cottages came highly recommended to us and Romney has not disappointed
Had a wonderful short break in Cavendish. The house was cosy and furnished to a very high standard. The garden is a real suntrap. Plenty to do and see without having to drive far. Everything lived up to our expectations or exceeded them. Booking was easy and the house was perfect with lots of nice touches. I would recommend it without reservation to friends and family
Many thanks for a wonderful long weekend at Romney – what a lovely house – so welcoming and beautifully styled and everything thought of. A great way to celebrate 10 years married with out 1 year old daughter!! Many thanks.
Spent a fabulous birthday weekend in your lovely cottage – a real home from home. Romney is a quaint, comfortable and well equipped cottage and you made us feel very welcome! The area is beautiful and we enjoyed a lovely walk across (wind swept!) fields, ending up, of course, in the Three Bells! Many thanks.
Romney is a beautiful cottage with everything you can think of included to make life comfortable. Thank you for a warm welcome and all the food goodies which we really appreciated. Beautiful sunshine today – we’re off to Flatford Mill. Lovely cream tea at Antiques & Interiors in Clare – we recommend! Thank you for everything.

Romney is a home from home. Beautifully furnished, quaint, quirky and cosy, in an idyllic location. We loved our stay here and will be back.
Romney is an absolute delight, perfect place to get away from it all. Lovely villages, walks and cycle rides – something for everybody. Superb, wanted for nothing, everything catered for.

We couldn’t have enjoyed our stay more! The cottage is lovely, so well equipped, thank you! We spent a lot of time in the exceptional garden, the perfect place to sit and relax after a day of walking, and a couple of drinks in the great pubs nearby! The welcome was very warm and we felt comfortable from the minute we arrived (thank you). We hope to return very soon and stay longer to do all the things we didn’t manage in our weekend. Thank you once again Peter & Sue.
We have had a lovely stay in your very cosy cottage. The walled garden is a very calm and relaxing area. Thank you for the great welcome pack and the gorgeous flower display in the kitchen. Lots of lovely touches in every room and a well stocked kitchen area. Hope to meet you both next time….
The owners greeted us and explained where everything was. The welcome pack was extremely generous – the best we have every received

You have an absolutely perfect cottage. We both thoroughly enjoyed our weekend away relaxing in front of the fire. It truly is a home from home and you’ve thought of everything. Our favourite Grove Cottage to date and we look forward to visiting Romney again. Many thanks
A very relaxing weekend catching up with friends. The 8 mile circular walk to Clare was perfect and a meal at The George went down very well too! Thanks.
Thank you for such a lovely stay. A wonderful home from home where we have enjoyed board games by the fire, the time to cook and very comfy beds. The Bull was very child friendly and we all 4 loved the 7 mile walk to Clare and back. Now we are ready for 2018! Very many thanks.
Romney is a delightful, cosy cottage equipped with everything we needed. Sue & Peter were lovely hosts, we particularly enjoyed pom pom making! Cavendish is lovely and we recommend the food at The George and The Bull!
We have had a wonderful Christmas here. We were very touched by the welcome package and by the extra touches, such as flowers and lovely Christmas decorations. Everything was thought of to make our stay enjoyable and comfortable. Well done Peter & Sue you have done a truly great job here!
A lovely cottage in a lovely village. A small well conducted operation! Well done to both of you. Had a great time – we will be back!
Romney is such a charming, cosy cottage with everything catered for. The attention to detail was exceptional. We spent our evenings relaxing on a comfy sofa in front of a roaring fire – what could be more enjoyable.
Cosy cottage, lovely fire, good base for exploring. We had a lovely stay.
From years of staying in 4* cottages, Romney has to be the cleanest and has the most attention to detail, for a comfortable visit! Best equipped kitchen! A wonderful cottage!
This is a perfect little escape – cosy, full of character and charm. We would love to come back
Thanks very much for a wonderful weekend.
A lovely cottage to escape to for a totally relaxed weekend away from busy lives. We used the information provided to take a pretty walk through the fields.

Beautiful cottage with everything thought of. An absolutely lovely place to stay, and we really appreciated the toys left for our son to play with, and the lovely garden.
Romney is a beautiful cottage which is deceptively spacious. It is extremely well equipped and extremely comfortable. We particularly enjoyed the garden and greatly appreciated the generous welcome basket. Cavendish is a wonderful base and a beautiful village. I would highly recommend a stay at Romney.

This is the second Grove Cottage we have stayed in and were, once more extremely happy – thank you!

A lovely comfortable cottage, thoughtfully furnished and well stocked.

The cottage isn’t like a rental – it’s like staying at a friends home. Everything thought of – perfect!
We were privileged to be your first American guests – thanks so much for providing a lovely welcome, all the support and advise and a really love, cosy cottage. We had a wonderful visit to your village and this beautiful region of England.

Gorgeous cottage with every detail thought through. We loved our week here, the interiors are clearly lovingly put together and the owners textile artworks around the cottage are a wonderful touch. It surpasses expectation.
You are doing a great job. Thank you for the warm welcome, but also all the hard work and consideration you’ve obviously put into Romney; it’s a beautiful property inside and out. The place was immaculate and so well equipped from the proper tea (and proper sized mugs and wine glasses), through to the very well stocked larder. We appreciated the strawberries and the kids toys – we couldn’t have wanted for more. You’ve very quickly become one of our favourite Grove Cottages and we hope we will see you again soon. Thank you!
You are warm and friendly hosts with a superb spotless cottage with all home comforts. One of the best cottages we have stayed in. Many thanks!
What a little gem! Comfortable and cosy, a lovely place for a short break.
We have had a truly wonderful two weeks staying at Romney., The attention to detail has completely blown us away and we straight away felt like we were at home! The beds were so comfortable and it was a wonderful place for us to stay with our 2 small children. Thanks again and hopefully we will be back one day.
