“Amazing 5* cottage, with luxury fixtures and fitting.”

Perfect size for a family of 4 (two teens who need own rooms) with two bathrooms to boot. The welcome pack was an incredible bonus, lovely local food (bread, apple juice, bacon). Free coffee pods for the Nespresso machine and Molton brown minis in the bathrooms, made for a “hug” from the owners. Perfect base from which to explore Suffolk, and Roger the gentleman next door was a delight too, very helpful with local knowledge and super friendly.

“The property was more like a home than a holiday let.”

The decor had been carefully chosen and was spotlessly clean The owner left us a very generous welcome pack including flowers, wine, milk, bread, eggs and cake. Hadleigh is a beautiful and historic town and makes a good base to explore the other old Wool Towns, Constable Country and Bury Saint Edmonds.

“My Husband and I have just spent a week in Mulberry Cottage, it is a wonderful place to stay in, there is everything you could possibly need for your stay.”

Stuart left us a lovely welcome pack, to start our holiday including a beautiful display of flowers, so very kind and thoughtful. The Cottage is in a very central position, for Shops and Pubs, we had some lovely meals in the George, the Cock Inn is only about 100 yards from the house, it is a nice Pub with nice people running it. The weather was not on our side, but it was so nice and comfortable in the Cottage, it did not matter, we would like to return in the near future. Review by Pat & Daphne Byrne.

“This is our second visit to the cottage.”

Very comfortable, everything you could possibly need has been supplied. Very stylish decor. Cottage has a cute, safe little garden with outdoor furniture just right for those warm days. Welcome pack is made up of local, quality products which we really enjoyed. A phone call with Stuart the owner prior to our arrival made sure we had lots of advice and information Hadleigh is in a great position in the Suffolk to easily get to lots of places.

“Mulberry Cottage is delightful, with a cohesive interior design.”

Exceptionally clean with quality fittings. Comfortable beds and plenty of towels. Generous welcome pack and the cheery sunflowers to greet us a nice touch. Initial contact with owner Stuart instilled confidence that all would be well and that any problems (of which I hasten to add we had none) would have been sorted promptly. Stuart was extremely friendly and informative. The cottage itself is well situated with plenty to see and do within easy reach.

David November 2022

“The property was spacious and extremely comfortable.”

It was very well equipped and the host provided a generous welcome pack which included local produce. The bacon, sausages and eggs were especially appreciated! Stuart, the host, was most welcoming and proved to be a mine of useful information and gave helpful advice regarding local events and towns and villages which were worth a visit. The cottage was ideally located for us when visiting family in the area and we intend to return in spring next year. We have no hesitation in recommending this property which is located within easy walking distance of Hadleigh Town centre.

- David, November 2022
Stuart October 2022

“Fabulous property would highly recommend.”

Comfortable, clean and beautifully decorated. Beds comfortable, lovely soft fluffy towels, fresh flower everything has been though of. Welcome pack of local foods went down very well. Easy walk to local shops and amenities. Hadleigh is an ideal base to get to lots of local beauty spots and destination.

- Stuart, October 2022
Christine September 2022

“The property was excellent.”

Beautifully presented, comfortable and a pleasure to stay in. Stuart had thought of everything, tissues in every room, complimentary bath products, plenty of fluffy towels & a very generous welcome pack to start off our holiday, which included local produce. The property is very close to the local amenities, so we couldn't have had a better location. We were delighted with it, and couldn't recommend it highly enough!

- Christine, September 2022
Catherine August 2022

“Lovely cottage, enjoyed sitting in the garden and well placed for us as we were involved in the Suffolk Villages Festival over the August bank holiday weekend and two of the concerts were in the church in Hadleigh so an easy walk from the cottage for rehearsals and performances.”

Stuart was a very helpful and attentive host. Fantastic local food and drink to welcome us in the fridge, a lovely surprise and much appreciated! Would have liked something different at the bathroom window upstairs (e.g. shutters/Venetian blind so the slats could be angled for privacy/light) as glass wasn’t obscured so had to have the blind down more or less all the time, but a minor detail really. Very comfortable all round plus superb weather so made for a lovely relaxing break.

- Catherine, August 2022
Fiona August 2022

“We loved staying in this homely little cottage.”

We arrived in 30 degree weather and it was a relief to enter a fan cooled living area. Stuart had provided an incredibly generous welcome pack of food, drink and fresh flowers. The accommodation was clean, comfortable and well equipped, with an abundance of information on locations to visit in the nearby area. Hadleigh high street was only a short walk away with quaint buildings and a great range of shops. There is also a nice little river walk beyond the town. Bury St Edmunds market and abbey ruins were worth the drive, as were Frinton-on-Sea and the beautiful scenery at Flatford Mill.

- Fiona, August 2022
Amanda July 2022

“Wonderful cottage.”

Spotlessly clean and very well equipped. Stuart was a great host leaving an amazing array of provisions and lots of great recommendations on things to do and where to eat. Great location. Hadleigh is a lovely little town all within easy reach on foot. Beds are very comfortable and showers work well. And the locals made us very welcome! Roger, the lovely neighbour took us for a pint and game of darts at the Cock Inn and gave us a list of places to visit. A week wasn't long enough! Thank you

- Amanda, July 2022

Sally July 2021

“Beautiful cottage, spotlessly clean, lovely comfortable beds and furniture.”

All home furnishings are John Lewis and really super quality. Next door neighbour a real gem gave us lots of tips on places to visit as well as Stuart who was a perfect host abc nothing was too much trouble. The welcome pack was incredible so generous and of the best quality.

Emily May 2021

“Mulberry cottage was beautiful, set in the lovely village of Hadleigh.”

Pubs and shops very close by. The cottage felt very homely and was decorated to a very high standard. We had a lovely family stay.

- Emily, May 2021
Maria April 2021

“Gorgeous cottage with very friendly neighbour.”

The cottage is very stylish and comfortable. The owner thought about everything, from picnic baskets to throws on the sofas. Beds were very comfortable and Kitchen is well equipped. The owner kindly left some bacon, milk, bread, yogurt and juice (very unexpected but such a lovely gesture). The cottage is super clean (I am very fussy about it). We used it as a base to stay and travelled all over Suffolk. We would love to come back there again.

- Maria, April 2021
Barry October 2020

“We were well provided for at Mulberry Cottage - comfortable & clean.”

The generous welcome pack was second to none & much appreciated. In these Corona Virus affected times it was reassuring to see several hand-sanitisers & facemasks for use of guests as yet another example of Stuart's attention to detail. Although our main reason for visiting Suffolk was to visit family we were pleased to find that Hadleigh was so near to Dedham & Constable Country. There are many other places worth a visit but of course Hadleigh itself is delightful. More than one reason to prompt a return!

- Barry, October 2020
Andrew September 2020

“The cottage was beautifully furnished, spotlessly clean and a lovely base.”

Stuart provided the best welcome pack we've ever had in a holiday cottage!

- Andrew, September 2020
Alan August 2020

“Lovely cottage in a beautiful, friendly village.”

Furnishings and facilities were really good, and the owner (Stuart) had provided an amazing welcome pack of foods. Really started the week off on a high. A great base to explore the local area.

- Alan, August 2020
Stephanie July 2020

“With Covid 19 in full swing we were unsure what to expect at Mulberry Cottage.”

We were very pleasantly surprised that it was not only the cleanest holiday let we have ever stayed in, but that the little extras that were included like proper welcome pack, masks etc were there. The neighbour was also very friendly and helpful in his recommendations as was Stuart, the owner, in his communications.

- Stephanie, July 2020

Truly a home from home. The welcome pack is well thought out and very generous. It was our second visit and hopefully not our last.

- Sue, November 2019

Suzy August 2019

“Mulberry Cottage is right in the heart of Hadleigh town and a good base to get to many places of interest.”

The cottage itself is a right home from home, and was equipped with everything you could wish for.....it was a great find for us and we would love to return!! Booking through Sykes cottages was quick and easy with no problems either. We will definitely use this site again. Thank you we had a lovely time.

- Suzy, August 2019
William May 2019

“Stuart is the ultimate in caring owners.”

The cottage was beautifully presented, his welcome pack was beyond the call and the whole build up by him to the weekend in ensuring we were happy was first rate. Highly recommended.

- William, May 2019
Marilyn March 2019

- Rebecca, September 2018
Zoe September 2018

“There is nothing else that you could ask from Mulberry Cottage!”

The place itself is absolutely perfect; the location central to the town, the equipment supplied in the cottage was the same as what you would expect at home, the decoration and comforts within the cottage were stunning and the owner was full of knowledge about places to go and things to see locally. We were a couple on a weekend break for our anniversary and I can absolutely say that we will be holidaying there again. Everything ticked every box - thank you for letting us stay in your cottage.

- Zoe, September 2018
Francesca August 2018

“It was a lovely cottage in a lovely location .”

Owner was helpful and very personable as was neighbour . My only slight criticism would be that we felt it was really a 5 person cottage as middle bed really just a large single and if there had bben 6 of us ( 1 person didnt come ) we would have struggled for beds .

- Francesca, August 2018
Christopher July 2018

“Good location, very close to High Street and within easy driving distance of several interesting and historic Suffolk towns.”

Generous welcome pack and delicious cake. Good quality towels and bedding and comfortable beds. Would be even better if the 3rd bedroom had a wardrobe and bedside tables, but the lack of them would not stop us from booking again. We hope to return next year.

- Christopher, July 2018
Paul May 2018

“A family get together to celebrate my retirement in May.”

The cottage is stunning and the owner left breakfast and a homemade cake for us. So many extras with this cottage it's hard to remember all of them. The beds are extremely comfortable and everything is spotless. The cottage is a two minute walk from the high street with many pubs and independent shops. We went to The Ram one evening very enjoyable and The Kings Head another, the food was excellent and the atmosphere in The Kings Head was good. Our stay was helped by the weather which was glorious and we were able to see a lot of the nearby Suffolk sights. I would highly recommend this beautiful cottage.

- Paul, May 2018
Alan March 2018

“Very clean and of high quality, also very convenient for all amenities, including shops,supermarket and pubs,we spent quite a few happy hours in the Kings Head, good reasonably priced food and drink,especially on Wednesday steak night.”

- Alan, March 2018
Philippa March 2018

“We were met with a welcome pack of food which included delicious local specialities, and the kitchen was well equipped with basics (tea coffee etc) The owners were on hand in case we needed anything, not that we did, but we knew we could ask.”

The beds were extremely comfy and my daughter has been googling to find the exact same duvet as she slept very well. All in all the cottage was perfect and we will be back. The location for us is ideal with family living just around the corner. (Purpose of visit)

- Philippa, March 2018

- Amanda, March 2018
Mark March 2017

“Mulberry Cottage is an absolute gem, the facilities are all of the highest quality.”

The location is lovely and quiet but still only a few minutes walk from Hadleigh town centre. We would not hesitate to recommend this property.
