Appliances include a four ring gas hob with electric oven beneath, A slim line dishwasher, a microwave, a full size fridge with two drawer freezer, a Nespresso coffee machine, toaster and kettle. The cupboards are home to all the cooking and baking equipment plus lots more in the wooden dresser in the living space. The workspace extends to a breakfast / dining bar with four wooden stools. NB there is dining seating for four people at the breakfast bar.
Living
The living space offers comfortable and relaxing seating for four with a three seat sofa and a leather arm chair. The large LG flat screen is a Smart TV and the WiFi in Boathouse is perfectly suitable for streaming services such as Netflix if you bring your own devices.
Ground Floor King Bedroom
This sophisticated French boutique style bedroom is perfect for couples and has views of the beach with sea beyond. The king sized bed is positioned centrally with bedside lamps. The high ceilings and large window create an airy atmosphere, with storage in the cream cabinet and hangers for clothes on the wall.
Family Bathroom
This well-proportioned room offers a modern white bathroom suite which includes a bath with shower over and glass shower screen, a wash basin with mirrored vanity cabinet above and a WC. There's also a heated towel rail.
Attic Bedroom / Dormitory
White wooden stairs with bannister rise from the ground floor to the attic dormitory. Positioned in the eaves of the building is an attic dormitory which sleeps two adults and two children comfortably in the bespoke, purpose built beds. There are two standard three foot single beds either side and a double bed at the rear of the room. Guests can store clothes and belongings in the shelves at the top of the stairs and in the three wooden drawers in the double bed space. Please understand that due to this room being in the eaves of the building, the head height is restricted, especially over the beds.

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.
Thorpeness
Thorpeness is home to a heathland Golf course and Country Club. During the warmer months there’s boating and kayaking on The Meare and the village is home to The Dolphin Inn, The Kitchen and a popular café next to the Meare.The bustling seaside town of Aldeburgh is only a couple of kilometres down the road or beach if you'd like the walk.
Guests will need a car or taxi to get around the area. The bus routes are few and far between.
Guests are welcome to bring bikes and comfortable shoes as the area offers plenty of walking and cycle routes.
