The Details

Tucked away in a secluded orchard garden, The Bakery is a dreamy, romantic retreat bursting with character. Originally the Bake House of a 17th-century farm, this cosy hideaway blends historic charm with modern comfort, making it the perfect countryside escape for couples on a romantic break.

As you and your loved one step inside, you’ll find a beautifully preserved Suffolk White brick floor, rustic beams and a vast built-in ‘kettle’ once used for brewing beer. The high vaulted bedroom ceiling, reclaimed wood floors and lime-washed plaster walls create a stylish yet relaxed atmosphere and the antique furniture and soft lighting complete the warm, intimate feel.

At the heart of the cottage is a pretty Georgian open-coal fire, built into the ancient baking oven. Curl up on the comfy sofa, pour a glass of wine and watch the sunset over the orchard garden through handmade French doors. The hand-built ash wood kitchen comes with a Belfast sink, gas hob, grill and oven – perfect for preparing a cosy romantic dinner for two.

Upstairs, the king-sized bed with a luxurious memory foam mattress promises a restful night’s sleep. A partially draped-off reading nook with a plush armchair offers a peaceful spot to unwind. The ensuite bathroom features a large shower, an antique sink and vibrant Kilim rugs, adding to the cottage’s unique charm.

Outside, a semi-enclosed patio surrounded by hedges and vine-covered planters provides a private space for alfresco dining. The front garden offers plenty of room to lounge under apple and pear trees or fire up the BBQ. Step straight onto countryside footpaths leading to a charming dog-friendly pub just 15 minutes away.

Dog lovers will appreciate the dedicated exercise orchard and dog-washing station, complete with fluffy white towels. The large dog exercise orchard also has a dog litter bin for convenience.

The woodshed has bulk supplies of eco coal made from compressed olive stones and logs, with an honesty tin for guests to buy fuel at cost. A wood basket, coal bucket, firelighters and matches are provided in the cottage.

For those looking to explore, complimentary bikes are available for all guests, providing easy access to the South Suffolk Cycle Route. A five-minute drive down a single-track lane brings you to Kersey, Suffolk’s prettiest tiny village, often used for period filming due to its medieval houses and lack of street lighting. By the ford is a lovely pub that is dog-friendly and offers the best food in the area.

You’ll also be surrounded by stunning countryside with footpaths leading directly from the cottage. One route takes you on a 15-minute walk across a field and down a tiny lane to a wonderful pub, named by the Telegraph as the best pub in Suffolk. This CAMRA pub has a brewery onsite, is owned by a cider maker, and warmly welcomes dogs, children, walkers and cyclists.
