Stable Cottage is a beautiful romantic flint period cottage set in the heart of the Suffolk Heritage Coast. The stable dates to 1750’s and has been tastefully renovated over two floors. This traditional cottage sleeps two people in comfort and offers the perfect cosy retreat for couples and families seeking a relaxing holiday or a romantic break. This hideaway is ideal for short breaks and is perfect as a base for touring the picturesque Suffolk coastal area from the market town of Saxmundham.

The space
A gorgeous haven for couples and families, it is a wonderful holiday base throughout the year, with coast, countryside, culture & food on the doorstep. Days at the beach, sailing, walking, golfing, fishing, bird-watching, relaxing galore!

This lovely Victorian stable's cottage is in the heart of Saxmundham on a quiet street, 100 yards from Saxmundham train station and 200 yards from Saxmundham high street. Stable cottage is a lovely cosy cottage, full of character and exceptionally comfortable, clean and well-equipped, including the use of unlimited Wi-Fi and super fast broadband.

Stable cottage is close to an excellent selection of shops, restaurants, characterful pubs, excellent art galleries and a museum. The cottage is also a few paces from one of the best fish and chip shop in Suffolk.

There are excellent restaurants just a couple of minutes walk away. As you step out of the cottage door there is a beautiful sunny courtyard facing a lovely church in one direction, and the high street just yards away the other way. Despite the perfect location, the cottage is delightfully peaceful.

There is also public parking just outside the cottage.

This beautiful Victorian stable, that was once fully functioning has been tastefully renovated and converted into a comfortable 1 bedroom cottage sleeping 2 people. The cottage has been re-furbished in a light but luxurious style and has been brought into the 21st century, with contemporary kitchen and bathroom and very comfy furnishings.

On the ground floor it has a lovely cosy living room and dining space with a well-equipped kitchen. There is a beautiful sunny courtyard with outside furniture too. On the first floor it has a master bedroom, which is spacious and peaceful with a solid wood frame double bed and superior quality mattress, covered with natural linen. There is also a lovely light and airy shower room with all the essentials.

Stable cottage retains its original period features throughout but is very light and airy with every modern comfort and furnished to a very high standard. We provide complimentary toiletries and essential pantry items such as coffee, tea, sugar, biscuits, salt and pepper. We also provide household essentials such as washing up liquid, cling film wrap, foil paper and cleaning products.

My work: Aldeburgh Seaside Cottages - Southwold Seaside Cottages - Seaside Luxury Cottages
Speaks English, French, German, Italian, Portuguese and Spanish
We are Tim and Lucy and we live on the stunning Suffolk Heritage Coast with our son Jack and our daughter Emily. We have been successfully letting our cottages: Arwen cottage in Aldeburgh, Thimble cottage in Southwold, Albion House and Stable cottage in Saxmundham and Castle Hill Cottage in Framlingham via our companies Aldeburgh Seaside Cottages, Southwold Seaside Cottages and Seaside Luxury Cottages. Our properties are self-catering and advertise on AirBnb. We are thrilled to have met such interesting people and received such lovely feedback for it. Tim was born and bred in beautiful Suffolk and I was born in Lima-Peru and brought up in Milan-Italy. I speak Spanish, Italian, French, German and English. As my husband’s family is from Suffolk we have strong ties with this beautiful part of the world. Having travelled extensively we have been inspired by the good things we have come across in properties we have stayed in. As you can tell, we are passionate about providing somewhere special that our guests will love, enjoy and return to. We feel incredibly lucky to be able to live in this part of the world and are loving sharing our cottages with some amazing people from the Airbnb community. If we had a motto to live by it would have to be Maya Angelou's: “My mission in life is not merely to survive, but to thrive; and to do so with some passion, some compassion, some humour and some style...”
