• "We loved Peggotty's and would return."

  It was clean, comfortable, warm and welcoming for our Christmas break. It is well located to explore the Suffolk coast and countryside. We made good use of the log burner. The owners had taken care to think of everything to make our stay enjoyable. Thank you.

  We are so pleased to receive such positive feedback from your recent stay and that you had an enjoyable Christmas. You would be most welcome to return in the future. Property Owner

• "Lovely cottage that had everything you could want and more."

  Comfortable and warm, quiet and relaxing. A very big walking section on the shelf and a lot of time spent preparing such information and plans, maps and books available for the area. Appealed to us as walkers and we changed some of our plans after seeing better looking walks put there by the owners. Nice small garden to relax in at rest of property with summer house, never used as this was October/November, but in right months of the year, this would be appealing. Cottage situated in a good location, only a few miles from the coastal resorts and Sutton Hoo was also a good visit. Great inland towns and villages also only a few miles away, yes , cottage good for exploring this lovely County. Owners recommended the local pub for a meal, again spot on recommend. Would return.

  We are pleased that you had such an enjoyable stay at Peggotty’s. As fellow walkers we are glad that all the maps and guide books were of great help. We hope to welcome you back in the future. Property Owner

• "Really charming cottage in a quiet, pretty village."

  An ideal location for exploring the wonderful Suffolk Coast and Heaths. So many lovely villages, towns, farm shops, beaches and nature reserves within half an hour of Pegotty's Really livable, lots of utensils, products, storage. Along with nice touches left for you - tea, coffee, sugar, spices, logs for stove etc and a box of chocs). A ton of of tourist and practical info there for you too. Lots of facilities five minutes away in Saxmundham - including supermarkets, restaurants and train station. Poachers Pocket Pub is a nice walk and fantastic Sunday lunch. Only suggestion would be a larger TV. I appreciate that it's a period cottage and very well priced, but I still think 100% would be disappointed with such a small screen these days, when there's very little else to do in the evenings. All in all, an excellent value, well equipped, ideally located holiday cottage. Highly recommend.

  Thank you very much for your comprehensive review. We are glad that you enjoyed your stay and had the opportunity to visit the very many local attractions. We deliberately chose a smaller screen tv so as not to dominate the character of the sitting room and to ensure it had a built in dvd player. Property Owner

  , probably the best equipped cottage that we have ever stayed in, the owners had literally thought of everything. It is beautifully situated, with many lovely places to visit, would definitely recommend.

  It was very pleasing to receive your excellent review, thank you. We try to cater for a wide variety of tastes when preparing our cottage for incoming guests. You certainly chose a good week weatherwise. Property Owner

• "Such a lot of thought has obviously gone into setting up this lovely cottage."

  So many books and information pamphlets with information on Suffolk and places of interest (plus instruction info on all appliances). Couldn’t fault the high quality kitchen. Bed linen and bed made for an excellent sleep. Shower took a bit of getting used to but adequate. Many thanks for a great week’s stay.

  Thank you very much for your excellent review. Glad that the books and leaflets were of help to you in exploring the local area. Property Owner

• "A fabulous stay at the cottage, we thought it might be noisy being opposite the social club but it didn't disturb at all."

  Very friendly people in there and nice to drop in for a drink. The little garden was a delight. There was everything and more for use at the cottage. My only recommendations would be, time to change the pillows and a blind on the bedroom window for privacy. My husband would of liked a bigger TV in the front room as his eyes are mot as strong now. Highly recommend this cottage.

  Thank you very much for your positive comments and that you enjoyed your stay, As it is a small cottage, we did not want a larger TV which we feel would dominate the sitting area. There is a spare memory foam pillow in the cupboard should a guest need extra support. Property Owner

  Probably the best equipped holiday property we have ever stayed in. Has everything. No criticisms. Lovely village and one of the most beautiful and unspoilt areas in Britain. I never realised that such places still existed in this country.

• "We had a lovely week, 27th April - 4th May 2024."

  The cottage is located in the perfect place for visiting the nearby coast and villages such as Aldeburgh, Woodbridge, Framlingham, Orford, Southwold, Dunwich, Norwich and Ipswich. The cottage itself is quite compact and not a lot of storage space in the kitchen there was an empty drawer for our own belongings. The owners did leave us milk, cookies and chocolates which were greatly appreciated however we did find a water filter in the fridge assumably by the previous guests that had a lot of mould on/inside of it which wasn’t that pleasant. The stairs are very steep and wouldn’t be very good for those who struggle to get up and down easily, especially the top stairs to the attic bedroom but we managed. The bathroom was spacious enough however the shower head could have done with being cleaned or changed but all was pleasant besides that. The cottage as a base is perfect for those just coming to travel around the nearby areas. We enjoyed our stay for the most part and would recommend this cottage to others.

  Thank you for your comments, pleased that you enjoyed your week at Peggotty’s and visited a wide range of places in the locality. We are aware that the attic stairs are steep but Sykes’ listing does draw attention to this for guests that may find it a challenge. We tried to maximise storage for guests’ food when the kitchen was recently refurbished. Also the concerns you brought to our attention have now been rectified. Property Owner

• "Peggotty's is a wonderful cottage."

  I liked the furnishings, the beds were so comfortable, we slept really well. The cottage was fitted out to a very high standard. It has given me some ideas for my own house. I loved all the pictures and books and ornaments. The location was perfect we visited Minsmere, The East Anglia Transport museum and we had a river cruise where we saw seals. southwold is just a short drive away and a lovely place. I would like to visit again when it's warmer as it wasn't warm enough to use the garden, which has a peaceful summer house at the end. I intend to revisit.

  I had everything I could wish for. The positive energy in the village and cottage was all I needed. I joint the yoga classes with Norie in the social club and met some lovely people over there. The birds in the garden while I spend time in the garden house were amazing. I would recommend shopping at Maple Farm in Kelsale. Thanks to the person who left the tastefull cucumbers in the church

• "Cottage was lovely and we had a good holiday and an enjoyable stay."

  Only criticism is that there is no storage for food so this had to be left out. Stairs were steeper than expected but we had already been warned. As we are now older and not as mobile and found the stairs difficult we probably wouldn't be able to stay at Peggottys again.

  Thank you for your comments and pleased that you had an enjoyable stay. We had a complete kitchen refurbishment recently ensuring that there were two deep drawers available for food storage. Property Owner
