We had a great stay in the cottage. Communication with Eileen was good before and during the stay. The cottage was comfortable and it was very well equipped for us. It was nice to have no one around us and our little boy lived seeing the horses everyday. It is convenient for Bury St Edmunds and the nearby green spaces.

Five stars all round.

We spent a wonderful few days in this simple but pleasant converted barn. The location in the orchard of Tudor West Stow Hall was lovely especially with the fruit trees in full bloom. Communication with proprietor Eileen was very pleasant and her welcoming brownies a real treat.

We stayed in The Cottage and have enjoyed the comfort of the space and wonder of the grounds for the last 2 months. Eileen is the best host we've had, and we've stayed at VRBOs around the world. She made us feel welcome and helped us tremendously during our stay. I cannot recommend this property enough. If you have children or are traveling alone this space and environment is wonderful both short and long stays. We're grateful for our time and for Eileen.

Orchard cottage is an oasis within an oasis, mid in nature, you can greet the horses and the deers come to say good morning.. we had no cellular network (which was good, this time), and sole access to the beautiful and enchanted orchard of West Stow Hall.. the weather also played ball, unforgettable stay, thank you Eileen!

If you want a quiet, peaceful break then this is the place to go. No noise just the sound of the different wildlife surrounding you. What a wonderful place to relax and unwind. Also a good base for travelling around the area site seeing.

The location of the cottage was stunning as was the accommodation. It had all we needed and wanted. The bedrooms were comfortable and airy at a time when it was very warm. The kitchen was fully equipped and the lounge comfortable. Outdoors a lovely patio overlooking the orchard with table and chairs which were used throughout the week.

I ended up staying at Gardeners cottage rather than orchard cottage as there had been a miscommunication about whether the garden was secure - it isn’t at Orchard cottage but it is at Gardeners cottage. The owner Eileen was quite happy to offer me the bigger Gardner’s cottage so I could keep my dog secure in its garden. The drawback was that there is only one bathroom at Gardeners cottage and I was expecting a guest who had been promised their own bathroom. Eileen resolved this by offering to put my guest up in the studio next door to Gardeners cottage so everybody was happy. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and my dog was captivated by the huge forest just up the road - he was in doggy heaven. He wasn’t so keen on the horses but us humans enjoyed getting up close and personal with them at every opportunity. Such a lovely peaceful setting and one I would be happy to return to another time for a longer stay.

Had a fabulous short stay at Orchard Cottage. In a perfect location close to Kings Forest. The outlook over the orchard is perfect, with visiting deer & other wildlife. The cottage is perfectly equipped with everything needed for a break away & the wonderful welcome brownies were just what we needed on arrival. Would love to revisit & intend to.

From the beginning of our planning to stay in Suffolk, West Stow stood out! Communication with the host was seamless, warm, and helpful. The property was delightful, spotless, and peaceful with grazing mares and foals, deer sightings, and was surrounded by gardens and paddocks. It provided a central location for forays to the coast and surrounding villages. We will return.

It was a privilege to stay in a property in the grounds of West Stow Hall. The accommodation had everything we needed and we were very comfortable. The setting is idyllic - such beautiful grounds to admire as you walk around to the quiet, and tucked away cottage. Eileen, the owner, was lovely and so helpful. Mobile reception is non-existent in the area so be sure to download your check-in info before you leave home!

I don't think I've stayed in such a well-stocked cottage! The kids loved running around the orchard. Perfect location for nearby attractions such as High Lodge. Highly recommended.

Great cottage in a lovely rural setting. Well appointed with everything you need. Eileen is lovely and helpful.

A wonderful 'getaway from it all' spot, the cottage is situated on the Hall grounds but such that you have complete privacy, the terrace opens out onto a beautiful orchard and you are surrounded by fields (and often horses!) and birdsong! A particular bonus to visit in good weather so that you can make use of the outside space. Inside, the place has been kitted out very thoughtfully - particularly for the keen cook! Nice beds and good showers. Communal area i.e. kitchen/dining area and living room is not huge but again it has everything that you need. A great destination from London being under a 2-hour drive and it's close to some lovely places to visit like Bury-St-Edmunds and Lavenham. Also some nice walks on your doorstep through the nearby woods. The owners are very welcoming and hospitable.

It was unfortunate that there were issues with the WiFi not working when we arrived, especially as none of our party could get a mobile phone signal at the cottage. Thankfully, the WiFi issue was resolved on our second day. Eileen our host was as helpful as she could be and kept us well informed. We raised a couple of issues about the cleanliness and the condition of some of the kitchenware. Our host couldn't have been more helpful in resolving the issues. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and were happy with the accommodation and facilities.

The host Eileen was excellent, friendly, approachable, and very helpful. Her hospitality knows no bounds, provided us with milk and yummy brownies for a cup of tea.The cottage was beautiful, homely, comfortable with a lovely orchard garden and views of horses in the fields. It was peaceful and quite and private. Lots of nice walks locally. Will difenately return in the future.

Another lovely stay in the gardens of West Stow Hall. These cottages are beautifully maintained and very private, with the gardens of the Hall an added bonus. Very welcoming owners - thank you Eileen and see you again.
