Description
Occupying a wonderful, tucked away position in the popular and enchanting village of Thorpeness, Mill House offers a perfect blend of period features and modern conveniences. This is a large house with plenty of room for social gatherings and with secrets spaces from which to enjoy peace and quiet.
A particular feature of this house is the capacious sitting/dining area that is flooded with natural light and offers panoramic views of the garden and beyond. Large bifold doors open out to the terrace and garden – a wonderful area for informal entertaining al fresco. On warm days, open the bifold doors, sit back and savour the scene.The grounds are meticulously maintained and largely laid to lawn with established shrubs and trees providing a mature setting.
The ground floor also consists of an impressive snooker room, TV/game room, a well equipped kitchen and one bedroom. A staircase leads to the first where further four generously sized bedrooms are located, each with its own unique character.
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 Mill House

Customer Reviews
Hi all. We’re now back from our holiday at Mill House and all of us are missing it already! I just wanted to drop you a quick note to share a bit of feedback, which I feel is equally as important to share when everything is positive rather than being quick to moan when things go wrong. Firstly I’d like to thank all of you at ACC for the amazing service from start to finish, including when we were away and had a couple of small things to resolve (I’d also like to extend this to the guys who came out to visit us). The attentiveness shown was outstanding; we’ve used a number of local and nationwide companies over the years when booking cottages for just the two of us and for the whole family and none of them are a touch on you guys – we will certainly be booking with you again in the future when staying locally! Secondly, please extend our gratitude to the local team who handle the house. It was in pristine condition and they were extremely helpful upon arrival, during our stay and when we were leaving. Finally, the house itself. WOW! It is without doubt the best place we have stayed in and completely exceeded our expectations, the photos simply don’t do it justice and it’s clear the love that the owners have for Thorpeness and the house itself. It really was home from home and whatever we needed was there. We loved it so much that we’d love to book again for next summer.
