Framlingham 3 miles, Woodbridge 8 miles, Snape 8 miles, Aldeburgh 12 miles
An extremely exciting granary conversion using many original building materials including the old granary chute doors and old oak beams. All combine harmoniously with its state of the art fittings: Mexican tiles, and super preparation and cooking facilities, good enough for even the most demanding cook.
Architecturally designed to provide maximum light, The Granary is comfortable, extremely spacious and wonderfully warm - under floor heating throughout and a lovely wood burning stove.
The pretty terrace directly outside is surrounded by picket fencing making a wonderful space for adults and children alike. Wonderful hard tennis court (arrange times of use with owner) and table tennis table.
Its elevated position ensures lovely views over the surrounding countryside towards Framlingham in the west and Woodbridge and the coast in the east it is just a short stroll from the village of Hacheston.
Parham Air Museum, a fascinating collection of wartime planes and memorabilia, is just a couple of miles from the village as is the attractive market town of Wickham Market where you can buy excellent local produce. Framlingham (a 10 minute drive) is an absolute must, with its fine 12th century castle, restaurants and pubs, shops and market. Give yourself plenty of time to explore this delightful town. Woodbridge, Sutton Hoo and the coast can all be reached in under 20 minutes. A great place for cycling, walking and bird watching.
