Sarah – April 2023
“The Host goes the extra miles and ensures that everything is ready, there is quiet music playing, milk in the fridge as well as treats on the side. Easy access to the Cottage which is in the center of the village easy walking distance to the pubs, tea houses and grocery stores. The street parking is first come first served outside, but it was never difficult to get a spot.”

John – October 2022
“This is our second stay at this fabulous cottage – we would have stayed here more often but it’s often booked up! It is so obvious that the host wants you to enjoy your time at no 3 – they really do go that extra mile! It’s in the centre of one of the nicest villages in Suffolk – walk across the road to Tanswell bakery for coffee and breakfast …. Yum! The interior of the cottage is perfect – comfortable beds, thoughtful welcome ‘hamper’ , tasteful decor. Our daughters joined us for a night – they just loved it and wished they could stay longer!”

“I absolutely loved this magnificent home! It’s so cosy and perfect! I’d quite happily live here! The wooden furniture/features make it so homely. We ate all the pastries within 5 minutes of our arrival. You can sit in peace and quiet whilst you watch the world go by outside the window. Also, I love the cream blankets, they are so soft!”
Harriet (12) – February 2022
“We stayed at the Boutique Cottage for 4 nights over Christmas, which was decorated very tastefully. Whilst the kitchen is not the biggest, it is perfectly equipped and we managed to cook Christmas dinner. Chocolates and wine were left for our arrival, along with other essentials such as bread, butter and milk. Whilst the break was for us to get away, it was nice to have Netflix on the TVs in both the lounge and bedroom. Locally, Dilly Dally almost opposite is a great tearoom, and we had a great meal at The Swan and wonderful takeaway from Youngs Chinese in Sudbury. A drive out to spend Christmas Eve at Aldburgh, and the circular walk at Lavenham on Boxing Day topped off a fantastic break.”
James – December 2021
“Had such a lovely stay at the Boutique Cottage. It was perfect to take some time away after a busy week. From the minute you walk through the door, you feel relaxed, just like home from home. Then from the comfy beds, to the little details like the the White Company toiletries and fluffy bath robes you feel like you’re in a 5 star hotel. Our first visit to Long Melford was also great, so many lovely walks, several pubs and plenty of tea rooms meant we didn’t need to travel far during our short stay. Can’t wait to come back.”
Nicola – December 2021
“Wow – Hellie & Chris, the cottage really is a slice of heaven! So much thought and details has gone into the cottage. The cakes were a welcome suprise and went down well with the girls. Abigail has decided she would like to live here! You really have thought of everything. As a mum, I was delighted to see that children had also been thought of with the fab tablewear. Phew, no worries of breakages. All in all the cottage is perfection!”
Hannah + family – October 2021
“We have stayed in lots of holiday cottages but this is our first air b’n’b and it has been just fabulous. Love the White Company touches, the gorgeous decorations, welcome basket, etc, etc. Thank You!”
John – October 2021
“Wow! Just wow! I’m Sudbury born and bred, now living in Cornwall. We came home to see family after such a long time and we wanted to be able to relax whilst we did it. This beautiful home from home let us do just that.
This lovely home is a relaxing oasis. The smells (that’s going to cost my holiday), the welcome pack, the features, garden and beautiful furnishings – all made this the perfect stay.
Thank you so much and we will always look to see if this beautiful home is available whenever we come home to Suffolk.”
Emma, Mark, George + Rosie – June 2021
“Made to feel really special as you walk in, with music playing, delicious cakes, a lovely welcome pack. Literally steps away from restaurants and pubs. The sun shines in the garden all day. They’ve thought about everything and for the pets too. All major streaming services on three tvs. Beds extremely comfortable. Toiletries are second to none and they provide robes and slippers, Dyson hair dryers. There’s nothing we could find fault with. An amazing weekend and very highly recommended.”
Gary – June 2021
“Myself & my partner have just returned home after a truly amazing weekend in Long Melford at the Boutique Cottage. As an international event director my life is spent in luxury hotels around the world.
The Boutique Cottage achieved everything I expect from 5 star comfort and facilities but also achieved something rarely achieved. Having worked 70 hours on a film set arriving at the cottage at 9pm on Friday, I was beyond exhausted it took minutes to feel settled, happy, relaxed and truly spoilt with the welcome treats fizz and absolute luxury of the cottage.
Thank you to everyone at the BCC for making this weekend so incredibly special. One thing is for sure we will be returning very soon and everyone in my network will be discovering the Cottage in Long Melford.”
Johnny Doyle – May 2021
“Having been all over the world, there is no place like home. You have created a home from home and it has been a pleasure and privilege to experience it for a few days.
Long Melford and its community is a first for us and it has been a most enjoyable time.
The cottage is amazing! Thank you so much.”
John + Eileen – May 2021
“Thank you so much for inviting us to stay at your beautiful cottage.
You have created something quite unique which is comfortable, luxurious and fun!
We have had a lovely time and definitely plan to visit Long Melford again.”
Jeanne + Roger – May 2021
Long Melford is quintessential English village set in the heart of the county of Suffolk.
These are a few of our personal favourites but there is plenty to choose from in Long Melford. All of these are within walking distance.
We love the idea of having dogs stay here at 3 Chestnut Terrace, having a dog ourselves has made us realise how much they also enjoy a holiday!
Immerse yourself in Suffolk's hidden gems and explore the rich heritage of this glorious county.
From the 'modern Hay Wain' at Flatford Mill to the beautiful timber-framed houses of historic Lavenham, you really are spoilt for choice in Suffolk.
