Staying in Suffolk during the Autumn means visiting one of the UK’s most natural and rural settings at the most picturesque time of the year. With summer holidays long gone, the country lanes are quieter, and the beaches sparsely visited – making this one of the best times of year to enjoy a romantic or family getaway. Here’s what you need to know about booking an Autumn cottage break in Suffolk.

What to look for in a perfect Autumn holiday cottage

With countryside walks available on the doorstep of all our cottages, you want somewhere comfortable and well located that you can rest at the end of a long walk and you can relax in for cosy evenings.

Whether you’re looking for a romantic getaway location or a family holiday, many of our cottages boast incredibly rural surroundings and are almost all located within walking distance of at least one pub. One thing we do encourage guests to check before their stay is whether their holiday cottage allows dogs to visit or not (for those with furry friends) and how accessible the property is in terms of cars and parking.

The best Autumn cottages for group stays

Planning an Autumn celebration with a group of friends or family? Our collection of Suffolk Autumn break cottages includes eight separate properties which hold more than five guests, with our largest property holding up to 26 guests at any one time. The ultimate property for a big reunion or party, Boxted Hall is a magnificent structure which combines history with infinite luxury – and is one of our most popular spots during the Autumn and Winter months with its onsite pool and expansive grounds.

Petit Hibou is our next biggest property with space for 12 guests, while The Old Post Office and The Old Barn both hold seven or eight guests apiece.

Finding the right area of Suffolk to call home
