About Bridge Farm Cottage

A peaceful retreat surrounded by grass meadows, pine forests and sea views.

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.

About the Acorn rating

Back to top

To help find the best cottage for you, we have created our own quality rating system for our holiday cottages called the Acorn rating. Ranging from 1-5 Acorns, the rating gives you an indication of a property’s facilities, fixtures and fittings, with five being the highest quality level. The Acorn rating is not connected to any other industry rating system that may be used for holiday cottages and is only to be used as a guide that covers location, style of interior and the facilities you may be looking for. We do not set our cottage pricing based on the Acorn rating we have given a cottage as all our cottages are of an individual nature. Therefore, we recommend that all factors are considered when making your choice. In addition, some of our cottages are curated to be sympathetic to their time period. This means that they might not have all of the aspects of modern living, but impress in so many other ways.

1 Acorn: simple living accommodation with basic furniture and fixtures fit for purpose and clean. Running water and a toilet are provided. There could be some limitations to heating and washing facilities – details of these will be stated clearly on the cottage's webpage. Bedding, linen and towels are supplied with a few exceptions, which are again clearly stated). Facilities for basic catering and living are provided. In general, a 1 Acorn cottage does not have WiFi.

2 Acorn: a mid-quality range of furniture and fittings. Bathroom facilities are basic or there may be a high number of guests to bathroom ratio depending on the size of the cottage. Very few 2 Acorn cottages have WiFi and the kitchen white goods and washing facilities are basic. Bedding, linen and towels are supplied in all 2-5 Acorn cottages.

3 Acorn: a good, standard offer. Generally it is correctly proportioned for the number of guests but could have a few compromises, for example a small kitchen, or a lower bathroom to guest ratio. The variety of white goods available will be better than a 2 Acorn cottage.

4 Acorn: these cottages have more premium furniture, fittings and lighting. Additionally the ratio of bathrooms to guests is likely to be higher, and the bathrooms would be more likely to have separate and spacious showers instead of showers over baths.

5 Acorn: a luxury accommodation offer with very few limiting factors. This is the highest offer available. It is well-equipped and has spacious facilities throughout the cottage or is set within an extraordinary location or building. The furniture is of a high standard, and has real comfort for modern living.
