About this property

Angelic 16th Century cottage in key Constable village - Bear Cottage

In keeping with its name, this endearing 16th Century cottage will envelope you in a snuggling fur-like hug of ancient warmth and character. Tucked within the heart of one of Constable Country’s pivotal villages, Bear Cottage is a wonderfully romantic retreat that offers fantastic access to the beautiful rolling countryside of the Stour Valley along with local shops, great riverside pub, Post Office and a family butcher. The whole cottage, including its five-hundred year old exposed beams and brickwork, has been lovingly renovated to provide contemporary comfort in sympathy with its original amorous charm.

10/10 Excellent

Enchanting cottage retreat
Clean, tidy and very comfortable. The cottage is magical, with excellent facilities and utilities, that will make it tempting to stay indoors all day! However the village is worth visiting in itself, and there's some fantastic pubs within walking distance, serving excellent food at an affordable price.

Loveliest of stays
Bear cottage really does give you an enormous warm hug, we had the loveliest of stays. There were fresh flowers on arrival & a hand written welcome note with the much appreciated welcome basket. Kitchen was well equipped & cooker easy to use. Mattress & pillows were the most comfortable we’ve slept on. Big soft & fluffy towels in bathroom. Beautiful cottage with log burner & little birds singing every morning plus lots of charming personal touches . We will be returning in the future.
