Located in Clare, the charming Gothic House Cottage is part of a Grade II listed building and combines cosy cottage character with a bright, airy extension overlooking the garden. In the warmer months, guests can enjoy a heated outdoor swimming pool, a grass tennis court, and modern high-quality interiors. Sleeping four with space for two dogs, this inviting home is perfect for families, couples, or friends seeking a peaceful countryside escape in the heart of Suffolk.

The cottage is situated opposite the imposing Church of St Peter and St Paul in Clare, which sits in the Upper Stour Valley. It is ideally placed, just a five minute walk from the shops, restaurants and pubs in Clare and within walking distance of the Country Park, where the remains of Clare Castle stand. With so much on the doorstep, you can park the car up for your stay until it's time to head home.

The ground floor of the cottage has an open and airy living space with a large dining kitchen and garden room with floor to ceiling windows providing lovely views over the extensive garden at the rear. The sitting room has an electric, living flame stove to gather around when night time draws in. Upstairs, both bedrooms overlook the church and have the choice of the first floor bathroom with separate shower, or the ground floor shower room. Bedroom two has the flexibility of a 6' super-king size bed which can be separated into twin single beds on request.

Outside, a small, enclosed garden and courtyard has access to a shed to store bicycles if you fancy exploring the local countryside on two wheels; along with use of an additional, larger garden beyond. The outdoor, heated swimming pool is available for the use of guests from late May until early September by reserving it with the homeowners. There is also a grass tennis court which although not by any means Wimbledon championship standard, guests are welcome to use and enjoy as well, again normally from June throughout till September.
