More Information
Gun Cottage is very, very cosy and full of light and character with the advantage of a free second bedroom as Gun Cottage only charges for one double bedroom and the second bunk bedroom is free and suitable for a third adult or up to 2 small children.
Gun Cottage is the old 1720's farm worker's cottage situated at the end of the The Old Grove Farm. It retains all of its original simple homeliness and charm and has a lovely open log fire and sunny windows looking out onto the side garden and the Orchard gardens which catch the beautiful sunsets.
The hand made kitchen with its lovely butler sink and reclaimed wood cupboards curls discreetly round the back of the chimney and provides gas hob and electric grill and oven cooking, the main room has a handy utility room off it, ideal for drying off wet doggies after a big walk. The main room itself has a beautiful big open log fire and a big sofa to enjoy it from, windows to the North and West make this a very sunny cottage.
Hidden behind an old cupboard door in the old wood panelled wall is a staircase winding up to the bedrooms, two glazed pigeon holes bring extra light into the stair well.
The master bedroom has the original broad elmwood floor which was traditionally painted black and the big old iron bed that we dug out of the vegetable patch and restored at stupid cost just for the history of it !
There is a second small bunk bed room adjacent and a little shower room.
Gun Cottage is a lovely place to relax into, and if you have a small child or two it won't cost you more than most of our cottages for a couple only. Plus the children can help me collect the bantam eggs in the morning.
Gun Cottage was originally the farm workers cottage and makes up part of the large double quadrangle of buildings that is The Old Grove Farm where I am and where my other 5 cottages: Snow, Rose, The Bakery, Dons Barn and Orchard Cottage are: this is where it all started and where the template for all the other cottages on my website was developed.
There is a large car park at the rear of the barns which has another acre of Orchard next to it that is used as a dog exercise area, I also have two lovely canoes which I can lend to guests if I am around and of course bikes are provided for guests free of charge.
This is a very cosy and romantic little cottage with a very contented and peaceful atmosphere in a wonderful part of this pretty area of Suffolk.
Well behaved Dogs are always welcome, please refer to this web page All About Bringing Pets for charges and how this cottage may suit your pet.

If you are in luck then there will be a stock of honey for sale from my own bees and we always try to give guests our own lovely Bantams eggs for their breakfast baskets. |
