A door from the sitting room takes you directly through to the dining room, where there is a table and seating for up to 10.

This connects directly with the well-equipped kitchen which features a table with seating for 5, oven, American style fridge freezer, dish washer, kettle and toaster.

There is a back door from the kitchen which leads to a utility room with washing-machine, dryer, sink and loo and direct access to the garden.

First Floor

From the sitting room stairs lead upstairs to a landing.

The first bedroom on the left is a twin bedroom, with fitted cupboards and a sink.

     

The second bedroom has 1 single bed and 1 double bed, chest of drawers and bedside table. The master bedroom is to the rear of the property overlooking the garden with a king-sized bed, fitted wardrobes and dressing table and has beautiful views over Orford town and to the River Ore.

Next to the master bedroom, is a newly refurbished shower room with shower, toilet and basin. The main bathroom is located to the right of the stairs, with bath, toilet, basin, and heated towel rail.

Garden

This charming English country garden offers privacy and is one of the biggest in Orford.  It is mainly laid to lawn and surrounded by herbaceous borders and roses.

 

There is plenty of space for everyone to enjoy, with comfortable garden furniture, including table and chairs for 8 and a wonderful Weber bbq.

The garden is fully fenced and we are very happy to accept well behaved dogs but we do ask owners to make sure they don’t go on the furniture or go upstairs.

In front of the house is a large tarmac driveway with ample off road parking for three cars.

Family Friendly

For groups with younger children there is a cot bed and high chair available.  There is also a stair gate fitted on the first floor landing. A home-made ice-cream van visits Orford on weekends and can be found within 50 metres of Ferry Cottage, in front of the Jolly Sailor pub.  Some of the best crabbing in Suffolk is available from the Orford Quay and fun for the entire family.
