Comfy cottage
We truly enjoyed our stay at White Lion Cottage in Hadleigh, Suffolk. There was more than enough room for our family to stay and the location is perfect. The cottage is well equipped with all the amenities needed for a great holiday.

Squeaky floors
Nice house, nice town and good pub, The Kings Head. The floors and staircase are very squeaky which is fun trying to creep around without waking the babies but it's not a criticism. The weekend was fun and we all had a great time.
