Great Glemham is a peaceful village in rural Suffolk, just 15 minutes from the coast, and has the added bonus of a 17th Century Inn serving superb homemade meals and local beers in the cottage garden or by the fire. You may recognise one of the rooms if you were a fan of the television series The Detectorist! Suffolk is the home to two National Cycle Network routes and you can store your own bikes in the shed in Hattie’s garden or hire them from the pub. Equally, there are wonderful footpaths to explore or take the car and discover historic Framlingham, Orford or Woodbridge, and the picturesque coastal towns and villages of Aldeburgh, Thorpeness and Southwold. It is also less than 15 minutes to Snape Maltings.You’re welcomed into an entrance area with hallstand, coat hooks and a picnic basket tempting you to venture outside. There is hard flooring throughout the living areas with carpet in the bedroom and, whilst the property is well suited to guests with a mobility issue, please note that there is a step to the front and back doors and a small lip on the shower cubicle. There is underfloor heating throughout with adjustable thermostats in each room and a fan is provided for those warmer days or nights.
