Lovely accommodation for a short break
We rented for 4 nights for the sole purpose of getting away while work was being done in our house, so it was not a planned holiday. The old cow shed was perfect for a couple, everything you could want was there. It was warm comfortable and well equipped. Despite the snow and rain (early March) we explored Suffolk and had a lovely time. Nice pub in the village and another close by on the main A140.

Very quirky house
We loved the bed, the shower with plenty of hot water. The underfloor heating is yummy and towels nice and thick. We were left some cider and biscuit, very nice.

We had a lovely stay at The Old Cow Shed and Geir/Louise were so accomodating and helpful.
We had a lovely stay at The Old Cow Shed and Geir/Louise were so accomodating and helpful. The accomodation is private set away from the main house but the hosts were on hand to help with anything. The shower head fell and broke a few days in and within a few hours Geir had replaced it and dropped by later to make sure it was all OK. The accomodation had everythign you would need for a few days away and was clean and comfortable. Great information about the local area too. Plenty of lovely places to visit within 45 mins drive of the cottage such as Southwold, Aldeburgh, The Broads and Framlingham which are all well worth a visit, as well as the local pub the Black Horse in just 5 mins walk away. Perfect for a relaxed getaway! Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo
