All of the bedrooms offer lovely views over the gardens, which extend to approximately one acre, as well as a number of distinctive period features.

The gardens themselves are mainly laid to lawn and feature several mature shrubs and trees.
As well as it’s good location in the vibrant village of Stradbroke, the property is just ten miles from a mainline railway station which also makes it a desirable option for regular commuters.
