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.
Sutton
The Hollies is located up a long private driveway and set in the woods, with woodland and Suffolk fields surrounding. Only five minutes drive from the historical site of Sutton Hoo and three miles from the bustling market town of Woodbridge.The coastal village of Orford is isn't far away. A day trip to Orford needs to include a visit to the famous Orford Castle, perhaps a Lady Florence River Cruise and definitely a snack or lunch at Pump Street Bakery.
If you are looking for a quiet beach to stroll, head to the tranquil village of Bawdsey. With the WW2 Bawdsey Radar museum to visit, endless walks and cycle routes, Bawdsey is a real treat for those who enjoy the fresh air and exploring.
A little further afield are the coastal towns of Aldeburgh and Southwold. Both have an abundance of places to walk, eat and enjoy Suffolk's heritage coastline.
