Location
Castle Cottage will be found in a delightfully quiet position on the edge of the rural village of Eyke.  The village benefits from a church and primary school, with the award winning restaurant, The Unruly Pig, lying just 1½ miles away.  The village pub, The Elephant and Castle Inn, is also due to re-open in the very near future.  The Heritage Coast is easily accessible, with the towns and villages of Thorpeness, Orford, Southwold and Aldeburgh all within easy reach. The village is also only a short distance from Rendlesham Forest which offers walks and cycling. The popular market town of Woodbridge is approximately 4 miles from Eyke and has further schooling in both the state and private sectors. The town has excellent shopping, business and recreational facilities, with a railway offering direct services to London’s Liverpool Street. 

Description
Believed to date from the second half of the 19th century, Castle Cottage was originally a somewhat modest cottage, but over the years it has been extended and added to, to create a spacious cottage of over 1,400 sq ft (130 sqm) in all.  The accommodation comprises an entrance lobby, entrance hall, sitting room, kitchen/breakfast room, utility and cloakroom on the ground floor.  In addition there is an impressive garden room that we understand was added in the early 1980s, which provides a wonderful additional reception room, that overlooks the delightful west facing rear garden.

Outside the gardens and grounds extend to approximately 0.21 acres (0.09 hectares) with a generous shingle driveway for the parking of three to four vehicles.  The majority of the gardens are to the rear, and facing in a westerly direction these enjoy the sun during the second half of the day and into the evening.  The gardens continue beside the property, where there is a vegetable patch together with some useful storage sheds.  The gardens are predominantly laid to grass for ease of maintenance, but indispersed with a number of well stocked borders, mature shrubs and trees.  The garden is also particularly private, and enjoys views across the adjoining grazing land at the rear.
