The village boasts a lovely medieval church with exceptional 8 bells and is large enough to provide all the amenities you need to make your stay enjoyable.

wonderful weeks in Debenham

We (family, 2 kids (8 and 13y) stayed nearly 3 weeks in this little cottage and enjoyed the well equipped space and the lovely village with its very friendly locals. Great place to start exploring the coast and the whole region. The perfect summer weather during the whole stay was the cherry on top.

Cosy second home

It was a lovely week we spent in the premises of Jeanette. The house was clean, comfy and we all loved it. We think it will not be our last vacation in Debenham. The only thing which is missing is the direct entry to the pub next door ;-)

Thank you so much Christian for being perfect visitors and I hope you come to Debenham again. If so, I'll ask the landlord of the pub next door if he could perhaps knock a hole in the wall so you can gain access more easily next time you come.

Always a Pleasure to stay here

We loving staying at tis cottage. It is right in the middle of the village and walking distance to everything. Don't need a car. Everything about this cottage is charming. It is our home away from home. We love the evenings sitting in the tv room and watching our favorite British shows that we cannot get in the states. This is always our first choice of a place to stay when we visit the village.

Relaxing stay in Suffolk

we had a lovely few days in Cobblers Cottage - it was very cosy but had all amenities. Debenham is a lovely village and the surrounding area is very attractive to explore. We would recommend this cottage to anyone looking for a bit of peace and quiet away from the rat race.

Lovely cottage in a beautiful little village

Overall Our stay was fantastic and Debenham is a lovely quiet village and the locals are very friendly. A good base to be able to explore surrounding Suffolk. The host was easy to communicate with and answered messages very promptly. The pub next door was an added bonus and everyone was so friendly… the church bells were a pleasure to hear of a morning and through out the day. Some of my party wernt to pleased to hear them over night 😬 but from the front bedrooms they cant be heard. Cottage is cosy with plenty of space. Our holiday was thoroughly enjoyed Thank you

Lovely oasis for a staycation

Wonderful house, suited our family of 4 (2 + 2 grown up children) perfectly. Lots of different downstairs space to relax in and a very well appointed kitchen. Beds were very comfortable and it was lovely to find somewhere with 3 bedrooms. Plentiful hot water too. Outside was a lovely little courtyard to listen to the church bells and the chatter from the pub next door. The pub itself was welcoming and charming, opening hours are varied but not later than 10pm, so nights were quiet! The rest of the village is perfect - the Co-op well stocked and the cafe made very popular bacon baps and coffee! Framlingham, Aldeburgh and Southwold were all great day trips and walking around the local villages was easy and picturesque. This was our first visit to Suffolk, and we all very much enjoyed it - thank you Jackie for sharing your house with us!

Our four night stay at Cobblers Cottage

Well placed cottage right in the middle of pretty village next to a pub and a local church with a local butcher, coffee shops, bakery and gift shops and more all within a few minutes walk. Cottage was clean and comfortable and had all the facilities we needed. With the sun shining we were able to enjoy our meals in the small but pretty back yard and when cool evening enjoy a log fire inside. The chatter from the pub and the church bell chiming added to the charm of staying in the centre of the village. Would definitely visit again and recommend.
