13 Bed in Tattingstone (oc-tat26)

Base for a large gathering of families or friends for a special occasion. This beautiful, characterful former rectory has 13 bedrooms sleeping 26 guests and is comfortably furnished in traditional style. Set in extensive, mature gardens on the Shotley peninsula, it is close to the rivers Stour and Orwell and within easy reach of the Dedham Vale Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.


All the rooms in this impressive Suffolk retreat are spacious, and airy, with large, light-filled windows. On the ground floor are two peaceful living rooms, one with French doors to the garden. There is also a vast games room, and an impressive formal dining room with space for everyone to enjoy communal meals. The kitchen is fitted with all the equipment you might need, or for outside catering during your stay. Completing the ground floor are three appealing double bedrooms. The first-floor houses ten bedrooms, comprising doubles and twins, and there are 11 bathrooms across both floors. Outside, the lovely garden has beautiful specimen trees, a suntrap patio with a BBQ area, picnic benches and a large lawn with ample room for games.


Peaceful Tattingstone sports two village pubs, and a children’s playground, with lovely walks and cycle paths nearby. Directly opposite your holiday home is the Alton Water reservoir, covering 400 acres of countryside. Hire equipment to sail, windsurf and paddle board on this man-made lake or follow an 8-mile cycle and walking trail around the water. Be sure to visit Dedham Vale (8 miles), known as Constable Country and made famous by artist John Constable’s local landscape paintings such as The Hay Wain.
