5 Bed in Finningham (oc-obhf)

Looking for a rural retreat to share a holiday or special occasion with family and friends? This idyllic, thatched farmhouse set in rolling Suffolk countryside is the perfect choice. The 16th-century property sleeps 10 guests across five bedrooms and has a wealth of period features, with original beams throughout, inglenook fireplaces and latch doors. Set in a lovely, extensive garden, it is within 1 mile of the village of Finningham and a country pub. Historic Bury St Edmunds, with independent shops, is 16.5 miles away, while the coast at Orford and Dunwich is 30 miles distant.

The light and bright farmhouse is furnished in country style, with soft neutral shades. Comfortable sofas give the lounge a relaxed ambience, and a long table in the dining room is ideal for mealtime gatherings. There’s a cosy snug for quiet moments, a handy office/study area, and a large farmhouse kitchen. The first and second floors house five delightful bedrooms: a super-king-size with an en-suite shower room, a king-size, a double and two twins. Outside, the garden has outdoor furniture, a BBQ and a large wildlife pond with a rowing boat and jetty. This is not fenced, so please supervise children while they play.

Bury St Edmunds has a reputation as a foodie town, with excellent restaurants and a twice-weekly market where you can snap up fresh local produce. Visit St Edmundsbury Cathedral and enjoy a stroll through the beautiful Abbey Gardens, set among the ruins of the historic medieval abbey. Catch a show at the Theatre Roya, the UK’s only remaining Regency Playhouse and investigate the Moyse’s Hall Museum’s Terrible Tales. The National Trust’s Ickworth House, just 3.5 miles from the town, is a fine Italianate property set in parkland.
