Peace and quiet in the heart of the Suffolk countryside.
This beautifully converted barn is part of Whitehouse Farm, and has all modern amenities. The countryside around here is fantastic for dog walking and for exploring the beautiful town of Bury St. Edmunds. Cambridge and Ipswich are only a short train ride away from the next village. This spot is a beautiful quiet part of Suffolk.
The spacious ground floor has an open plan living/dining/kitchen area, with rear door to the fully fenced garden. The generous bedroom and bathroom take up the entire first floor with views out over the playground, farm and surrounding countryside. There is also a "day bed" upstairs allowing this cottage to sleep 3 people, and still have room for a cot if needed.
The cottage is well equipped with TV, DVD player, fridge and freezer, oven, hob, microwave, toaster and kettle. There is also a washing machine and dryer available in the separate laundry room, which is shared with one of our other cottages.

Perfect place for a countryside staycation
We had a fantastic time at Little Oaks! The house is set in the middle of the gorgeous countryside and has multiple walks and footpaths in and around the surrounding area. The garden was a great size and also fully fenced, which meant our dog could enjoy the outdoors safely. The house itself was comfortable and a great size for two adults. Basic supplies like tea/coffee and toilet paper were provided, although a few more of each would have been perfect as we did top these up ourselves during our stay. The only other minor point is that the duvet was quite stiff - maybe this was a winter duvet that hadn’t been changed out yet? Otherwise everything was great and we would happily stay here again. Thanks Rob!

Nice cottage good location
Requires a curtain on rear door to garden, decking is very slippery and really should have a guard rail of some sort. Bath was very slippery when wet, we used a hand towel in the bath to stand on when showering, otherwise the cottage and facilities were good.

Great cottage for a peaceful break.
We enjoyed our time staying here. The cottage was clean and comfortable, the location was lovely and our son had a great time in the little playground. The host, Rob was very friendly and helpful.
We'd be more than happy to stay here again.

Lovely cottage
We’ve just returned from a very relaxing few days at Little Oaks, White House Farm. The property had everything that we expected and more. It was very clean and the surroundings are idyllic. Rob, the host, was very friendly but not at all intrusive.
We will definitely return and would highly recommend this little gem.
