There was no dishwasher (as advertised) two chairs fell apart (but were instantly replaced). There was no instant heating and the Under Floor heating and towel rail did not work or were turn off away from the property, (it was the last full week of May & was very cold). There was also excessive noise from the adjacent occupied property. I understand that all three let’s can be converted into one holiday let but when our “neighbours “ had a parting till 1 in the morning they may as well have been in our property. The stairs from lounge to bedroom level are steep and possibly not appropriate for those with stair climbing issues and the 3 steps from lounge to kitchen are also steep and without a handrail! The fridge froze our food and although we adjusted the controls we never achieved an optimum fridge temperature and the freezer as actually located in a separate building and was 1 shelf of a 3 shelf communal freezer, not exactly user friendly. Two minor points, the tin opener failed (we borrowed from the neighbours) and some of the cutlery was very cheap with edges unsuitable for eating with. The views were great as was the general silence. The cows also provided a lot of entertainment along with many other animals (foxes, rabbits, buzzards, goldfinches etc). The location relative to the A14 and Ipswich was also good; close but never in sight or heard. I would not rule out us returning to the Buttery, but it is most definitely not luxury and significant sound insulation is required between the three holiday units. In its current form I can not recommend this property to others. From a partner site ### 10/10 Excellent #### Karen M. Oct 18, 2018 #### Peaceful hideaway with amazing rural views The Buttery was perfect for the short, away-from-it-all break I was looking for... and the views over fields and woods were wonderful. The cottage (one of three rental properties) is a great mix of clean modern design and rustic charm, and while it's set on a working farm, it's very quiet. I enjoyed my morning chats - tea in hand - with the cows in the paddock around the corner! ##### Karen M. From a partner site ### 10/10 Excellent Jun 25, 2018 #### Perfect hideaway. The Buttery is the perfect place for a relaxing break in the heart of the Suffolk countryside. It offers clean, comfortable accommodation in lovely surroundings. ### Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > - [Motts Cottage](https://www.expedia.ca/Dunmow-Hotels-Motts-Cottage.h6119394.Hotel-Information) > - [The Colesbourne Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Cheltenham-Hotels-The-Colesbourne-Inn.h3810136.Hotel-Information) > - [Kings Court Hotel, BW Signature Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/Alcester-Hotels-Kings-Court-Hotel.h1223389.Hotel-Information) > - [Farmyard Inn Youlgreave](https://www.expedia.ca/Bakewell-Hotels-Farmyard-Inn-Youlgreave.h92446997.Hotel-Information) > - [The Clock Tower](https://www.expedia.ca/Daventry-Hotels-The-Clock-Tower.h22331770.Hotel-Information) > - [Ye Olde Robin Hood Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Telford-Hotels-Ye-Olde-Robin-Hood-Inn.h20944914.Hotel-Information) > - [Lovely 3-bed Home in Rookley on the Isle of Wight](https://www.expedia.ca/Ventnor-Hotels-Lovely-3-Bed-Home-In-Rookley-On-The-Isle-Of-Wight.h104238801.Hotel-Information) > - [The Great Hallingbury Manor](https://www.expedia.ca/Bishops-Stortford-Hotels-The-Great-Hallingbury-Manor.h2123886.Hotel-Information) > - [The Coach House](https://www.expedia.ca/Settle-Hotels-The-Coach-House.h26995237.Hotel-Information) > - [Red Lion Coaching Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Gainsborough-Hotels-Red-Lion-Coaching-Inn.h91944827.Hotel-Information) > - [Greenhill Farm Barn B&B](https://www.expedia.ca/Banbury-Hotels-Greenhill-Farm-Barn-BB.h30105240.Hotel-Information) > - [Boscombe Spa Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Bournemouth-Hotels-Boscombe-Spa-Hotel.h4537063.Hotel-Information) > - [Luxury Beach House Rental with Hot Tub, 30 meters to Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Looe-Hotels-Luxury-Beach-House-Rental-With-Hot-Tub.h27313935.Hotel-Information) > - [Saul Farm](https://www.expedia.ca/Gloucester-Hotels-Saul-Farm.h16509323.Hotel-Information) > - [Lakeside Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Norwich-Hotels-Lakeside-Lodge.h31001547.Hotel-Information) > - [Humber Royal Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Grimsby-Hotels-Humber-Royal-Hotel.h11597.Hotel-Information) > - [The Ravensbourne Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Bournemouth-Hotels-The-Ravensbourne-Hotel.h11670159.Hotel-Information) > - [The Sails a beautifully presented chalet bungalow with](https://www.expedia.ca/Chichester-Hotels-The-Sails-A-Beautifully-Presented-Chalet-Bungalow-With.h95118395.Hotel-Information) > - [The Greyhound Inn Aldbury](https://www.expedia.ca/Tring-Hotels-The-Greyhound-Inn-Aldbury.h4253085.Hotel-Information) > - [The Marquis](https://www.expedia.ca/Ipswich-Hotels-The-Marquis.h22465947.Hotel-Information) > - [Cliveden House](https://www.expedia.ca/Maidenhead-Hotels-Cliveden.h518646.Hotel-Information) > - [The Hawkley Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Liss-Hotels-The-Hawkley-Inn.h4383820.Hotel-Information) > - [The Feathered Nest Country Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Chipping-Norton-Hotels-The-Feathered-Nest.h44085381.Hotel-Information) > - [Thimble Cottage](https://www.expedia.ca/Truro-Hotels-Thimble-Cottage.h33337586.Hotel-Information) > - [Stonehenge Courtyard](https://www.expedia.ca/Stonehenge-Courtyard.h97558122.Hotel-Information) > - [The Greyhound Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Wantage-Hotels-The-Greyhound-Inn.h2295713.Hotel-Information) > - [Cowley Manor Experimental](https://www.expedia.ca/Cheltenham-Hotels-Cowley-Manor.h1662540.Hotel-Information) > - [Banbury Wroxton House Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Banbury-Hotels-Banbury-Wroxton-House-Hotel.h14743.Hotel-Information) > - [Romantic Cosy Cottage ❤️ near Beach ★ Large Garden ★ Pet Friendly ★ Parking](https://www.expedia.ca/Mablethorpe-Hotels-The-Beach-House-Close-To-Attractions-Parking-Large-Garden-Pet-Friendly.h18768516.Hotel-Information)
