Excellent location within 5 minutes walk of Woodbridge town centre and all its facilities - shops, restaurants, bars, leisure centre, etc. Free but tight roadside parking is available outside the property which was a bonus. Traffic noise from the main road in the early hours might be annoying for light sleepers but one adjusts to it after the first night. The host Ed is really friendly and helpful.

the only niggle we had is the lack of Parking by the property. To say there is parking is a stretch. We paid for parking, which was not excessive, 5.40 a day. The carpark was only a short walk from the property and did not cause any real problems.That aside, the little house is lovely. the garden is a sun trap. everything works as it should and is very comfortable. We'd stay there again.

A perfect place to stay in Woodbridge

We were fortunate enough to stay for two months in this wonderful property. The cottage was well equipped and perfectly located within the heart of Woodbridge. Abi & Ed were very welcoming and helpful throughout our stay. We would love to stay in this property again.

This was our second visit and it was just as nice as we remembered it. Spotlessly clean, super comfortable beds and a lovely feel to the house. Only a few minutes walk from the centre of town so ideally placed for shopping, relaxing etc. Thank you Abi!

Our favourite cottage

All terrific except that one of us doesn’t sleep well in the double bed - though the mattress is very comfortable the bed frame does jiggle about every time one person moves, affecting the other. I’m sure sounder sleepers wouldn’t complain - personal problem! Otherwise we love the cottage and its location and this time enjoyed having friends to dinner too. Thank you Abi and Ed

Excellent location shame about the parking

Accommodation was lovely except 3rd bedroom was more a cupboard with a curtain, no door, and a camp bed with metal cross bars that you could feel. Situation was perfect, close to river and town centre. Garden was not secure for my dogs as there was access via gates both sides to neighbours and both gates were left open one night. Parking was on the very narrow road, all full when I arrived and double yellow lines everywhere meant I was ready to go home as I couldn’t park away from the property and carry everything to the cottage, luckily a place became available on my last drive round.

Response from VrboOwner on 20 Apr 2025
Thank you for your comments. Always helpful. We try and be as detailed as we can about parking spots in our welcome email. And have picture of the cabin room. Although when we make it up we put extra layers on so it is very comfortable. I am so sorry that we did not make it up in this case. We did not know about the neighbour leaving our gate open so we will have worlds with them so that is really helpful. Thank you so much. Abi

Kingfisher Cottage

We've stayed in various holiday cottages in Woodbridge and loved this one most of all. Nicely decorated, well-equipped and the dining table is big enough for 6, which is often rare. lovely stay, thank you.
