The Space


Entrance
You are welcomed into Little Dene Lodge up two steps and in through the partially glazed door into the ground floor stairwell. With a tiled floor, it's perfect for wet paws and boots before you use the wooden staircase with handrail to rise to the studio apartment.

Studio Apartment
Furnished to a very high standard with wooden floor and rugs under foot, high vaulted ceiling and windows to three aspects.

Sleeping
The king size bed with beautiful, crisp white linen sits centrally between bedside tables under the window. Storage for guests belongings is in the chest of drawers and there are hangers down stairs on the coat hooks if required.

Relaxing
Two arm chairs are placed at the end of the bed, positioned for the flat screen smart TV which can be used to watch your own Netflix and Prime.

Cooking
The kitchenette is fully equipped for self catering, with an under counter fridge with ice box, an electric oven and two ring ceramic hob, kettle, toaster and Nespresso coffee machine.

Dining
There's a perfectly sized circular table and two chairs for dining if you'd rather not dine al fresco on the patio, in the garden.

Shower Room
The shower room is located on the ground floor. Featuring a modern white suite and corner shower with plenty of shelves for storage.

Outside

Outside the door to Little Dene Lodge is a large patio area, sectioned off from the owner's garden with conifer trees to one side.

There is a fresh water river at the bottom of the garden which guests are welcome to visit but we ask guests to keep their dog on a lead so as not to disturb the wildlife.

Why book with us?

When you book with The Suffolk Cottage Collection, you're getting the best possible price- no hidden fees, no inflated commissions. And if you speak to us, chances are you'll chat with Donna, who turns bookings into a breeze and always goes the extra mile with a smile. "Donna was fantastic with communication. Nothing was ever too much trouble."

We are local

We're not just in Suffolk - we're part of it. Our little farmhouse HQ looks out over rolling fields and winding lanes, and when we pop out for a walk, it's usually through the same villages and footpaths you'll be exploring on your holiday. We're properly local - and we wouldn't have it any other way.

Always here to help you

No robots. No "please press 1." Just real people who pick up the phone and actually want to talk to you. Got a question? Want a recommendation? Need to know which pub does the best Sunday roast? We're here. And if we don't already know the answer, someone in the village probably does.

Handpicked with heart

We don't do bland. Every one of our cottages is chosen because it has something special - the kind of place we'd book ourselves (or proudly recommend to Mum). If it's in our collection, it's passed the The Suffolk Cottage Collection Standard: charm, comfort, and a sense of place you can feel the moment you step through the door.

Guest Reviews

Without terrestial channels available on the tv, and personally not being able to sign in to a smart account, it truy was a quiet stay. We still found much to do in and around Pakenham, but as the country gets so dark at night, beware of spiders and rustles in the garden! The bed was clean and comfy, and The bathroom was the cleanest Ive seen in our trips so far, and a massive plus was the heated towel rail and oversized rain shower head.
Donna was a very responsive and helpful host. We had a great stay at the property and the garden is a really nice touch when the sun comes out. Water pressure is good so you can have a good shower and while the kitchen was small it does everything you need. We even managed to cook a roast dinner! All the essentials were included and Donna was flexible with our check in and check out times which was appreciated. We drove round the area and went to a vineyard which was lovely but also walking distance from a really nice pub in Packenhsm. Would recommend!
Exactly like the photos in a peaceful location with some great walks!
