“A little piece of heaven on earth”

Reviewed 21 Jun 2013

Our first trip to the Olde Laundry - lovely warm welcome from Jackie and John and goodies in the fridge as well. If you love cottages, you will love the Olde Laundry - it is beautiful and very well equipped. The fishing was good and the grounds are lovely, lots of places to sit and draw/read a book/or just sit listening to the birdsong. Visited Southwold, which we love for its beach and beach huts, and Diss which has plenty of shops/restaurants/supermarkets and a mere - where we spent time feeding the baby ducks, coots and moorhens. Missing it already - and we would definitely recommend the Olde Laundry. Thanks Jackie and John for a great holiday - we will return.

“A warm welcome”

Reviewed 1 Oct 2011

On arriving Jackie and John's warm welcome began the relaxation and wind down we were looking for. Enough information given on the operation of the cottage, a tour of the gardens, river area, local info about eating out etc and the welcome pack found in the fridge began the start of a great week stay in The Olde Laundry This was our first visit but in discussion with guests from the other cottages revealed that some had been coming for a number of years - what a recommendation to both place and countryside. Lots to see and do throughout the area, with lots of walking (at least it was flat for us coming from the scottish highlands!) No local shops in the village - self catering meant travelling a short distance to larger areas for supplies however it also introduces you to the custom of local fresh produce being sold by local people at the side of roads/streets. A great stay.
