Excellent accommodation, ideally suited to explore the area. There was so much to do locally. The check in was contact free but the host was extremely helpful. Garden very secure if you gave a dog with you. Wonderfull experience overall.

Comfortable, stylish, modern cottage with attractive, private sunny garden. Could do with a little maintenance, e.g constantly filling cistern, squeaking door in red bedroom etc. Very hot in kitchen without skylight blinds. Need more explanation of how things work. Very few Freeview channels.

Excellent all round!!

Knodishall certainly isn't a "picture box" village - but it is close to several lovely places, e.g. Aldburgh, Thorpness, Southwold, Snape, etc. So, it was convenient for visiting local places. The cottage was nicely presented and adequate for 4 people (5 couples). Our friends were even able to bring their dog, which was good. The fact that there were NO blinds in the central kitchen area, meant that this got VERY hot - even leaving the 2 large Velux windows open. The whole cottage tended to get hot - although we were there in a heatwave! Maybe, the wooded exterior cladding kept the heat in. At least we were able to close the curtains/blinds in the 2 bedrooms and lounge, while we were out during the day, which did help to keep them cooler. There were tea, coffee, sugar caddies in the kitchen - but they were all empty - as was the fridge. It is quite common now to have a welcome pack of tea, coffee, sugar, milk - even, sometimes some cake or biscuits - which would have been very welcome, especially after a long, hot journey. Other things lacking were:- (1) shaver points in either ensuite, to re-charge shavers and toothbrushes (both very common now): (2) the 'ordinary' (old-fashioned) electric hob was SO SLOW, after being used to an induction hob - which are SO MUCH faster and more efficient - thus saving time - and energy/electricity; (3) a VERY big step up into the shower cubicle for my wife, who is partly disabled. We have low profile shower trays, which are only about 2 inches high and easy to step over. Overall, We enjoyed our week and were able to visit several lovely places nearby. Just a few improvements to the cottage would have made it even more enjoyable. Eric and Hilary Freeman.

Absolutely fine

The cottage is very comfortable and very private. You walk into the kitchen dinner through the one door. The kitchen is very functional, you have everything you need to cook a decent meal if you want to. To the right of the kitchen is the lounge on the front which has two comfortable sofas. To the rear is bedroom one with shower ensuite. The bed is very comfortable and the linens good quality. To the left of the kitchen is bedroom two with shower over bath ensuite. Both bedrooms have TV's along with one in the lounge so there is no need to squabble over the TV control with plenty of Freeview channels to choose from. You have a small patio to the front with a small lawn to the side. The garden furniture is a bit past its best so take care when sitting on the chairs, they may well collapse on you which happened to a member of our party. Through the summer months I hope the grass is well maintained and if so this is a pleasant area to spend a few hours soaking up the sun. Unfortunately the grass had not been cut for our visit and had obviously not been cut since the end of last season which made a very difficult task of cleaning up after our dogs. But all in all a lovely spot to spend yr holiday within driving distance of 45 mins to Felixstowe, Ipswich or Lowestoft with plenty of places to visit in between.
