About the area
Long Melford
Located in Sudbury, this holiday home is in a rural area and on a river. Giffords Hall Vineyard and Suffolk Distillery are worth checking out if an activity is on the agenda, while those wishing to experience the area's natural beauty can explore Great Cornard Country Park and Dedham Vale. Travelling with kids? Consider Assington Barn, or check out an event or a game at Milbank Stadium. Make sure you get close to the area's animals with activities such as game walks and birdwatching.

About the host
Hosted by Louie Brown

Hi, I'm Louie, I live next door to the Walled Garden. My father and grandfather built the mirror image bungalows in the early 60's and I have lived in one or the other for all but the first 18 months of my life!
I'm an ecologist by trade and have had a life-long interest in natural history. I'm a keen traveller and love walking , especially in northern Spain where I have walked many old pilgrim routes (caminos)

Why they chose this property
My eldest son and myself recently renovated the property, which now keeps me busy.
Over the years I have seen many changes in Long Melford but can't think of anywhere else I'd rather live!

What makes this property unique
The Walled Garden has a unique position in the village. It is located down a long driveway, so is very tranquil, but is also a 5 minute walk from a selection of shops, tearooms, pubs and restaurants.
There is access via the back gate and cricket field to a selection of footpaths, ideal for those with dogs that need exercising.
It is also a great location for exploring Suffolks medieval villages and for a longer day out the Suffolk coastline and nature reserves.
