Hi Spencer, thanks for the review. Yes, I'm lucky to live in this part of the world; my grandad chose well when he built the bungalow where he did in the early sixties!

Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt sehr genossen. Sehr ruhig, obwohl es im Zentrum von Long Melford liegt. Ideal für Menschen mit Hund. Toller Zugang zum Garten und von dort zum Cricketplatz und einer schönen Wanderroute.Gartenmöbel unglaublich bequem!Der Bungalow selbst ist einfach und schnörkellos eingerichtet. Absolut kein Schnickschnack! Die Betten waren sehr bequem. Tolle Gegend für Ausflüge!
