Family-friendly holiday rentals in Thorpeness

We stayed as a group of friends at this charming house, and it exceeded all our expectations! The property was even more stunning than the pictures, with a perfect blend of rustic charm and modern comforts. Vanessa is incredibly kind and attentive, making sure we had everything we needed for a fantastic stay. The peaceful surroundings and beautiful scenery provided the perfect backdrop for a memorable getaway. We can't recommend this place enough and would like to return one day!

An amazing Airbnb and very helpful hosts. Loved being here with extended family including two toddlers, house and garden were beautiful and safe for the kids. Had a really wonderful time.

A picturesque home in a beautiful location. In a quaint little village you truly feel like you’ve been whisked away into serenity. Would highly recommend staying here, host is very friendly and welcoming, the home is well equipt for all your needs. If you are looking for rest and recuperation and time to reconnect with others without the hustle and bustle of life, this is your dream location!

Sarah and Aaron were great hosts. Extremely friendly and flexible , our kids loved chatting with them at the end of the driveway. They let our little boy fish in their big pond which he loved and chopped extra wood for me who loves their open fire and log burner in what is a lovely spacious house. Such a spacious and peaceful stay. Would absolutely recommend this air b&b and these hosts. No stress at all. Thank you

It's not often that a place exceeds your expectations, but this place certainly did, it is absolutely beautiful, everything about it was perfect, there were 8 of us staying here and each and everyone of us loved it. Marcus was lovely to deal with, he recommended a restaurant/pub for a Saturday lunch, "The Red Lion" in Debenham which was about an hours walk away and the food and service were exceptional. We had a fabulous weekend.

We had a lively stay at Helen's, the garden is huge and is fenced (which was handy with a toddler), it has a playground and a small house for kids that our daughter loved. It also has a direct access to a field with two horses that were happy to be pet. The house itself is very large, clean, with a play room and lot of books and boardgames, and a very well equipped kitchen. We felt instantly at home. Helen even gave us spices we had forgotten and needed ro cook a dish. And of course, there was the jaccuzzi! It was the perfect gataway for a long week end. Would 100% recommend!

Andy was a fantastic host and gave clear instructions on getting to the location and how to get in. The replies were also quick when I had questions to ask on the day and thankfully Andy was there to respond quickly. The house was in good condition and was clean and tidy ready for mine and my partner’s arrival. I and my partner had a lovely time and was a well needed break, there were also plenty of animals around the location which made it even better for us to watch them. Would recommend to anyone needing a little peaceful getaway for those who also love nature.

Such a beautiful stay at this air bnb. Great for the dog with the enclosed garden, which was very secure, and plenty of lovely walks on the door stop. The sauna and the hot tub were a great addition too.

The Olde Forge was a great find. The accommodation is perfect for a couple and a dog. The place is very clean and comfortable. The bedroom has hanging space for clothes and plenty of room. The vaulted ceiling is impressive. The bathroom has a great shower with plenty of hot water and good power. The Faith in Nature products were a bonus. We particularly liked the fact that Marianne thinks about the environment and organic/biodegradable products are used. The area is very beautiful and picturesque. We cooked a breakfast but ate out the rest of the time with plenty of local eateries available and all were very good.

Chris and Melissa were perfect hosts. With a very friendly welcome it was nice to meet them as they were away on our last visit. Georgie their sweet dog was very happy to see us and our dog too. The barn is a real sanctuary and beautifully furnished with the best kitchen. Garden is shared with a private corner too. Our dog could wander where he liked as did Georgie. Thanks will return again.

Fantastic place to stay, great location, beach, pub, and fish and chip shop within a stones throw, I couldn't have wished for better. I was met by Lynette who was very helpful and attentive throughout my stay. Sand Dude Cottages are a gem of a place to stay. I wouldn't hesitate in returning (and I will). And I can highly recommend it.

Absolutely loved our stay! Kate was a fantastic host, very warm and welcoming. Beautiful place to stay, lots of history. Enjoyed exploring the local area and would love to come again!

Rose Cottage is in a tranquil location, with beautiful views from both the front & back. Sitting in the garden listening to the birds was perfect. It had everything we needed for a very peaceful stay. Both bedrooms are a great size & the lounge is so comfy & cosy. Lucy & Kevin have provided a very thorough list of local amenities places to eat, places to visit, & things to do! Kevin gave us very clear instructions on how things worked & we instantly felt at home. Thank you!

I couldn't believe how nice The Buttery was for the price. A really tranquil venue and a great find. Thanks for a lovely stay. Matt

We stayed at this delightful cottage for four nights for my nieces wedding at Sancroft Barns. We came with my daughter and Granddaughter who is 9 and has autism. The peaceful and secluded garden was really helpful to keep her calm. We had everything we needed we did a big food shop before coming but there is a handy and helpful convenience store in Frssingfield village that quite a lot of choice for all the little extras . This very quaint cottage has many historic and original features and we felt transported back in time. We had very comfortable nights sleep in the beds. Mary is s very welcoming Host - thank you for a lovely stay.😊

We needed a base in Melton for a long weekend to attend a wedding. This accommodation was perfect for us both, and our two grown up ‘children’. The host gave clear instructions, and it was easy to find. It had everything listed, and more. Two en-suite bathrooms were perfect for us, and we could walk to the church in under 10 minutes. There was plenty of off road private parking too. The loveliest part was the warmth of welcome - a bottle of fizz, milk in the fridge, and nice biscuits. Julia gave us time to settle in and then came over to check we had all we needed. She was extremely friendly, kind and helpful and also gave us a flexible check-out time. We would strongly recommend this lovely coach house for a beautiful Suffolk get-away.

Thoroughly recommend this house for a group gathering. Beautiful property with great facilities and amazing views. The outside dining area was a great family space from which to enjoy the views and watch the spectacular sunset. A bonus is the use of the swimming pool and games room.

This property was excellent for seven guests. One guest was wheelchair reliant and with a few accessible aids of our own it was suitable for such guest.The Lodge was well equipped kitchen wise with plenty of pots and cutlery.washing machine and dishwasher within which made it feel like home.Only downside was the road access around the site which was just pebbled and Impossible to push a wheelchair or pushchair.Having said...we had a thoroughly enjoyable week in a first class accommodation.

A fantastic lodge which had everything we needed for our stay and was spotlessly clean. Michelle was lovely and met us on arrival to explain everything. Would highly recommend.

Polly was an amazing host. Very welcoming and considerate. The only downside was that there is no air conditioning. Which would not normally be an issue in this part of England except for our stay there was a heatwave. Polly did provide a fan on request. On the upside the pool was incredibly uncomfortable and useful. The property is exceptional and we look forward to staying again.

This is a gorgeous cottage set in the middle of countryside (but easy to get out & about in the car). The kitchen is huge and with everything you need, with several options for outdoor dining to make the most of the lovely garden. Beds are comfy with decent sized rooms, but the standout attraction is of course the pool…heated so that we (with two young kids) could enjoy it for several hours each day of our stay without anyone getting bored or chilly. Lorna & Dean v friendly & helpful hosts. Highly recommend; only caveat - while we had a great weekend here with our toddler in tow, we were outdoors for most of the time; the cottage is decorated beautifully and has flagstone flooring throughout the downstairs which are not always compatible / relaxing with an energetic 2 year old.

Rachel accommodated us to stay in her annex less than 24 hours before our booking which was amazing. She was very friendly and the place was lovely. Great access to a private terrace area and we were able to use the shared pool which was nice and warm! Within 20 mins from a lovely beach and lots to explore in the local area

The house we stayed in was fantastic - large enough for everyone (six adults, one infant) to have their own privacy and come together for meals. Extremely well appointed with everything you could possibly want and need. Welcoming pack of wine, juice, chocolate, biscotti and milk appreciated. The heated pool was an added bonus. The spring gardens around the house were welcoming - there was a fire pit so we could sit out at night (with blankets). There is a nearby pub with good food and other Suffolk towns are easy driving away. Communication with Suffolk Secrets could have been better however, the owner was in touch with us directly which made things easier. Joining instructions were poor - the postcode takes you to the back of the property not to the entrance - clearer instructions on how to get to the property were available in the large folder on the kitchen table which is not much use when you are trying to find the house for the first time. Will definitely want to go back.

We’ve stayed in lots of AirBnBs but Rose Cottage has got to be the best! It's a newly refurbished cottage and we were lucky to be the first to stay in it since it's reopening. Absolutely pristine, wonderfully put together decor and lots of thoughtful touches that made it really special - including a very lovely welcome hamper and beautiful organic toiletries to use. The whole place smelt divine! Beautiful private garden as well as huge grounds to roam around in, including an amazing swimming pond - we dived straight in on a scorching day. Pauline and Mat were was the loveliest of hosts and really made our time there feel very relaxed. They were on hand if you needed them but unobtrusive if you want to be left to enjoy the tranquility of the place. Very easy to get to the coast to explore but you may not want to leave the cottage! We all absolutely loved it and will be back.
