About Bridge Farm Cottage

Bridge Farm Cottage is a semi-detached property nestling among wildflower meadows and beside a quiet country lane. This spacious, but cosy, holiday home boasts an open fire and enclosed garden with gently sloping views across grass meadows towards Dunwich village. With classic farmhouse interiors and countryside all around, Bridge Farm Cottage is the perfect country getaway. 

The road behind the cottage gently meanders up into pine forests and heathlands with numerous way-marked trails. Stop in the village pub before heading on to soak up some sea air at the sweeping Dunwich beach. 

Further afield, discover the pretty seaside town of Southwold just a short drive away from the cottage. The town is home to numerous independent shops and restaurants as well as the famous Adnam’s Brewery and the lighthouse.

Please note: There is a honey bee nest in a disused chimney at Bridge Farm Cottage, the small bees are non aggressive and can be seen outside flying around the chimney top, particularly on warmer days.

Occasionally, a few stray bees may drop down the wrong chimney during the day. Should this happen they may be found on the hearth or on the carpet near to the open fireplace.

If required we can seal the fireplace with a board but, unfortunately, this would mean that use of the open fire would be difficult.

Parking: Is available for two cars.
