Sunnyside Cottage - a beautiful rural retreat

Enjoy a taste of the beautiful Suffolk countryside at Sunnyside Cottage. This is a truly individual property with plenty of character and is the ideal place to escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life. Being over 150 years old, Sunnyside has stood the test of time and has been sympathetically modernised to ensure its individual charm is obvious throughout. Sunnyside Cottage is a small one-up one-down cottage with plenty of charm. Downstairs you'll find a kitchen area (complete with a hob, oven, fridge and sink), a foldaway table with chairs, a sofa bed, TV (with streaming services including Netflix and Amazon Prime) and woodburner. Upstairs is a double bed, chest of drawers and ensuite bathroom with a shower/bath. Outside, there's a parking space for one car (although guests are welcome to use our main drive too), and a small garden. The property has plenty of interesting features - look out for the wonky chimney as well as the initials engraved in brick outside, which mark a couple's wedding day in 1935. Please note, the bathroom is only accessible through the bedroom, and the stairs lead straight into the bedroom. The stairs are also quite narrow and have no stair gates. A travel cot and high chair can be provided if you're travelling with a young baby, but we advise that the property isn't suitable for those with toddlers because of the stairs. Check in: 3pm Check out: 10am We live behind Sunnyside in the Old Wheelwrights Cottage and are always available for any questions, help or advice you need. Falkenham is a quiet village just 4 miles from the up-and-coming seaside town of Felixstowe and 6 miles from Suffolk's county town, Ipswich. We are also only 15 minutes away from Woodbridge and within driving distance of popular spots such as Aldeburgh, Southwold and Bury St Edmunds. There are some beautiful walks that can be enjoyed right from the doorstep of Sunnyside Cottage and across the road is the award-winning Artisan Smokehouse and Cafe (open Thursday-Saturday), which we can highly recommend. We're also only a short drive away from some fantastic pubs including The Newbourne Fox and The Maybush at Waldringfield. Local transport is limited to one bus per hour, and the stop is less than 10 metres from Sunnyside's front door. Trimley St Mary train station, which offers services into Felixstowe and Ipswich, is approximately two miles from the cottage.
