Welcome to Queenie's cottage

 

Queenie’s cottage is a wonderful rural retreat for those wanting to escape the bustle of city life. It has been lovingly restored to retain its original charm without sacrificing modern day comforts.

Queenie’s cottage is a traditional timber-framed Suffolk cottage that has been lovingly restored by the owner. The cottage has been renovated to retain the original rustic charm of the building and furnished with both antique and modern pieces to give the cottage a charming yet utterly comfortable feel.

Queenie’s Cottage is one of the oldest dwellings in Metfield, dating back to the 15th century with 16th-century additions. It has a plethora of beams and original floors and a large inglenook fireplace with a wood burner.

The location offers a wonderful setting in the Suffolk Countryside, yet is only a 30 minute drive to Southwold and the Suffolk Coast via the market town of Halesworth, whilst the castle towns of Bungay, Eye and Framlingham are all within easy reach.

The charm of Queen’s is reflected in the great care and attention given to the design of the cottage, which has the benefit of both a kitchen/dining room and a separate sitting room with a cosy wood-burning stove.  Upstairs you will find a double bedroom with an ensuite shower room with wc and in the attic one twin  bedroom. This room as one very low beam near the beds! The stairs are, as you might expect, steep spirals but handrails are provided for your safety and comfort.

The cottage is centrally heated and also has a wood burning stove which makes it perfect for cosy evenings relaxing after a day's walking or exploring all that the area has to offer.  There is also a private rear garden with glass covered terrace and interesting contemporary designed garden. The garden has a green roof covered eating area and water features.
