Self-catering accommodation near Groton Suffolk

Groton countryside SuffolkGroton is a tiny Suffolk village of little more than 240 inhabitants, set between Hadleigh and Sudbury.

The 15th century church of St. Bartholomew's attracts visitors, especially Americans for whom it has a special historical significance. It contains the tomb of the parents of John Winthrop, the leader of the puritans who fled to America during the reign of King Charles the first. He became the founder of Boston, USA, and the first governor of Massachusetts. The church can be found north of Boxford on the A1071.

There are also a few acres of nature reserves for bird watching and country walks, including ancient woodlands. Enjoy wonderful walks and views through Suffolk countryside.

Places of interest to visit nearby include the villages of Edwardstone, Gosling Green, Hadleigh, and Kersey.

Suffolk Groton Manor Farm

Groton Manor Farm is set in 3.5 acres of its own paddocks and garden with woodland to the west of the property.  We have recently converted old farm buildings, a former piggery, stables and cattle shed into a unique living space. A stay with us provides you with complete privacy we have two separate driveways but if you have any  questions or a problem we are just next door to help.   There is a spacious entrance hall that leads to the kitchen, dining/sitting area, a stunning 40ft by 15ft room with exposed oak and elm beams. Another door off the entrance hall takes you to the family bathroom, while yet another door takes you to the piggeries. The fully fitted kitchen has a range cooker, dishwasher, washing machine, fridge and microwave. A large dining room table sits eight comfortably. The sitting area has two large sofas, an armchair and a squashy footstool providing plenty of places to relax with a view over the pond, double glazed doors take you on to the terraced walkway. There is also 37 inch flat screen TV (FreeView). At the west end of the sitting room a door leads you to the master bedroom suite with dressing room (can double as a nursery room) bedroom with king size bed, with adjoining bathroom with a shower, WC, washbasin and heated towel rail. You can lie in bed and see the sunrise from the east through the floor to ceiling double glazed doors that provide access to the terraced walkway. The piggeries provide three delightful bedrooms; one with a king-size bed, the middle bedroom with two single beds and the end bedroom has a double bed with outdoor access to the terrace overlooking the pond. As they were former piggeries they lead one room in to the other, which are perfect for families with young children. The family bathroom has a large double ended bath, wash basin, WC and heated towel rail. The exposed elm beam in the bathroom is charred black from a fire that swept through the old dairy in the early part of the twentieth century. According to an old newspaper cutting (circa 1918) one of the last horse-drawn fire engines used in Suffolk was seen charging up Butchers Lane to put out the fire at Groton Manor Farm. The fire engine would have pumped water from the pond to extinguish the flames which would have been seen for miles as we are positioned at one of the highest points in this area of Suffolk. On a beautiful clear day it is a great spot to paint as endorsed by my father-in-law who is a keen amateur artist. Great for families and groups of friends, more spacious apartment than cosy cottage but if you have young children/babies great romantic weekend away with husband and children - Yes it is possible to have the kids tucked up in bed and you can have a bit of your time, a nice glass of wine and enjoy the luxury of our apartment.
