Description
One of the most stunning houses on the Meare (a shallow water boating lake) with a private jetty and a large garden. This spectacular South facing house was built in the early 19th century and located on the banks of the Meare in the beautiful village of Thorpeness. Ideal for larger groups or family holidays, Clayes Meade offers ten bedrooms and most of which have views over the garden and the Meare.
The interior of the house is modern with kitchen, dining area and sitting room, all looking out onto the Meare. Externally, the house offers a mature garden with large decking area, sun loungers, private jetty, barbeque, and patio table and chairs for al fresco dining.
This traditional house is just a stone’s throw from all the attractions of Thorpeness. These include the famous House in the Clouds, the windmill, the Meare (a lake with rowing boats and kayaks you can hire to explore its many islands and even a pirate’s fort!), The Dolphin pub, golf club, tennis courts and, best of all, the beach! Neighbouring Aldeburgh offers a greater selection of facilities including independent shops, galleries, award winning restaurants, golf and sailing clubs, and a cinema. Nearby Snape Maltings is home to an internationally renowned concert hall, with various concerts throughout the year.
If you are looking for a very special Bolthole for a large family gathering or social occasion, then look no further than Clayes Meade
