Situated in pleasant farming countryside, about two miles from the sea, is the village of Hollesley, which is about eight miles from the pretty market town of Woodbridge. Hollesley comprises a collection of houses and cottages, a pub, a village shop, garage and church. Shottisham village, with its pretty thatched pub, The Sorrel Horse Inn, is also about a mile away and Alderton (with another good pub!) is about two and a half miles away en route to Bawdsey. This is an excellent area for a holiday as it is very close to the sea and forests and is an ideal area for walking, painting, riding, golf, bird watching etc. It is also a cyclists’ paradise as there are miles of flat, winding roads and very few hills! 

The Poplar Park Equestrian Centre (01394 411023) is very near to Lodge Cottage and can offer a weekly livery service for any visitors wishing to bring their horse/pony on holiday with them. Alternatively, why not have a morning’s lesson exploring the local forests on horseback?

Lodge Cottage is a detached, single storey property accommodating six people situated in a quiet location just over a mile away from the centre of Hollesley and is available for self-catering holidays when not required by the owners.

The accommodation comprises an entrance lobby with a washing machine, bathroom with wash hand basin, WC and bath with a mixer tap shower over, a kitchen with dining area, two twin bedded bedrooms, a double bedroom and a living room with open fire. There are garden doors from the double bedroom leading into the front garden and also from the hallway into the rear, natural garden. There is ample off road parking and an open shed for bike storage.

Household amenities include electric cooker, fridge/freezer, microwave, washing machine, colour television, video, radio/cassette/cd player, garden furniture, brick built BBQ, secondary glazing, electric water heating and oil fired central heating. Fuel for the open fire can be purchased locally.

The owner provides pillows and duvets together with all bedlinen, towels and teacloths.

Pets are welcome at Lodge Cottage. Please note that, although the property is slightly set back from the road and behind a tall hedge, the garden is not fully enclosed so not child or pet proof!   Smoking is permitted.

Short breaks are available at Lodge Cottage but they can only be considered two weeks before arrival out of season and one week before the start date in high season. Prices are available upon application.
