Old Black Horse Farm Reviews

Jennifer
We were a three generation family group. The accommodation was very comfortable ( a second sofa in main lounge would have been lovely) we loved the large dining table and the table with sunshade in garden. A lovely holiday break and get-together.
Tracey
Itâ??s a beautiful cottage with a great garden. There is plenty of room for 10 and having the separate snug worked well. The kitchen is really well equipped, thereâ??s plenty of room in the dining room and lounge and a huge driveway. Itâ??s a lovely old cottage, be prepared to duck at times as some of the doors are quite low and the floors may not all be level!
Jessica
Kids friendly and very cosy! Totally recommend.
Paulene
We had a lovely Christmas week with 3 families sharing together. The house was warm & the kitchen has a large oven so cooking Christmas dinner was perfect. We visited Bury St Edmunds & Stowmarket & enjoyed Rolfes Butchers for all our delicious food.
Jim
Ticked all our boxes, quiet, large play area for the family, lots of toys and a boat!
Margy
We did love the house and grounds, the space was wonderful. The little lake was great with the boat and we had a paddleboard that was well used. We enjoyed watching the ducks. Excellent to have such capacious parking
Christine
First impressions amazing. Felt at home right away. The perfect place for a family get together.
Neal
A fabulously well appointed, characterful property for a large family gathering. The back garden is wonderful, especially the pond. The kitchen is particularly well stocked, we loved that the knives were sharp (a rare find). No detail is forgotten, be it games for children to the comfort of the adults. The beds are very comfortable and each room a is a little haven. The fixtures and fitting are of excellent quality. We cannot thank the owner enough for their attention to detail and making it a perfect place for a family celebration.
Sandra
A beautiful thatched cottage with beamed rooms. We had a 6' 4' person with us who had to duck a lot but managed ok. Views stunning and the children enjoyed rowing on the lake carefully supervised by adults. Plenty of space to play outside games and a multitude of walks available. Having the snug and large lounge enabled the teenagers to have their own space. Having bedding supplied with the cot was a real bonus. We had a special request just before arrival and this was sympathetically dealt with. Thank you. We had a lovely week even though the weather was not in it side!
Janet
Beautiful farmhouse in a peaceful location. Very comfy beds and well equipped kitchen.
