Situated in the shadow of Orford castle, The Boatshed is a new, spacious, self contained annex in the garden of our home with views across to the historic village of Orford and it’s river. There is off-road parking and WiFi. Little disturbs the peace in this rural area where we have spent the last 35 years. Just out of our gate and the whole of the countryside is yours to enjoy. The building is open plan and airy. A super king sized bed is ideal for a couple and the futon sofa could offer room for more. A travel cot is available. The large walk in shower, with sink and toilet comprise the bathroom with heated towel rail. The fully fitted kitchen has oven, hob, microwave and fridge leading to a breakfast bar. The seating area commands views of the castle and village. The whole benefits from underfloor heating. Outside is a decked seating area. A ramp is available for those who find the step difficult. Your hosts Wendy and Guy live in Chantry Cottage full time. We still work but are around a lot and will be happy to answer any questions or give recommendations. The village of Orford is full of history and the buildings reflect this. The magnificent castle and wonderful church date from the 12th century and there are buildings from every age scattered through the “town”. In the village, and all within walking distance, are the shop, two pubs, hotel, restaurant, award winning bakery and chocolate shop, butcher, smokehouse, fish hut and tea room. River trips are available or just spend time on the quay watching the fishing boats and yachts sailing by. Orford is not served by public transport but trains arrive at Woodbridge from London via Ipswich and taxis are available. The area abounds in interesting features from the seaside at Aldeburgh to the riverside of Woodbridge. Inland are a wealth of small, lively towns, historic Sutton Hoo and Snape Maltings. There are woods, heaths and shingle shores on the doorstep and bicycle friendly lanes.
