Description

Long Melford was one of the great Cloth Towns of mediaeval Suffolk, situated in the picturesque countryside, a location made famous by artists Thomas Gainsborough and John Constable, both born in Suffolk.
Church Walk is located between The Black Lion Hotel and the Alms House as seen on the north west edge of Upper Green.
It was also one of the main filming locations for the BBC's Lovejoy television series, and one of the lead cast members stayed in Church Walk Cottage in 1993, during the filming of that series.
The cottage is a Grade II listed building dating from 1838 and is 4 doors away from The Black Lion Hotel, yet a short stroll along Church Walk to the mediaeval Holy Trinity Church.
The double bedroom has stunning easterly views over Upper Green, whilst the single bedroom to the rear of the property is ideal for an overnight visitor.
Please note the garden at the front of the cottage is very modest in size, but partially compensated for by the adjacent views of the expansive Upper Green.
During the High Season, changeover day is Saturday to Saturday, although these days may be negotiated for bookings at short notice.
Please note pets are not allowed, not even well-behaved small dogs.
The property enjoys the benefit of BT Broadband, Fibre Essential (36 Mb Download speed), an attractive option for those guests wishing to take a restful break from city life, yet remain in contact with the outside world.
For guests arriving without transport, I can recommend Felix of Long Melford, a family owned taxi and coach hire firm currently run by the second and third generation family members since 1952.

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Curch Walk,the cottage was spotlessly clean,bed really comfortable. the position overlooking the village green was great with easy access to the village.We did have trouble with a water leek,but this was swiftly dealt with by Jane.Would highly recommend this property.

Der Rod and Elizabeth, thank you very much, Mark and Jane

A great place to stay

By Penny and Hugh Carson on 05-Oct-2024

A attractive period cottage close to the stunning church in Long Melford. Mark and Jane were very kind and keen to ensure we had a good stay. Long Melford is a picture postcard pretty village with seven pubs, a number of cafes and two stately homes. There is no shortage of things to do in the area. We hope to return. I did miss a dishwasher though I’m not sure where one would put it. Also the stairs are steep and the steps to the bathroom would not be easy for those with mobility problems.

Lovely cottage, pleasant village

By Paul Moran on 31-Aug-2024

Long Melford was ideally situated to explore Suffolk and we also had a day in Cambridge. The village itself was full of independent shops and quite a few pubs! We both are happy to walk to places and the cottage was well positioned near the amazingly large church and 10/15 minutes stroll from the centre of the village. All together a very enjoyable week. Certainly on our list for a return visit.

Perfect Location

By Mr W Bosley on 15-Jun-2024

This is one of the best cottages I have stayed at, there is everything you need for a perfect holiday, the WiFi is good and all the electrical goods (TV etc) are modern and high spec and the property is spotlessly clean with nice comfy beds. The location is ideal with a beautiful church close by and Melford Hall a very short walk from the property also Kentwell Hall less than two mile drive, there's also a convenience store and post office and other shops within walking distance and no problem parking if you decide to drive. I would like to thank Mark the owner and Jane who lives nearby the cottage and keeps it immaculate for giving my partner and I a wonderful Holiday.

Cosy cottage

By Stuart Clarke on 06-Apr-2024

We've been to Long Melford a few times but normally at the Bull Hotel. Didn't get around as much as we'd have liked due to disability, but had a lovely few hours at Melford Country Park. Would recommend. There are also loads of walks in the village. Cottage is cosy with everything desired, clean, tidy and warm. You can tell it's popular by the numbers returning, sometimes multiple times from all over the world. Parking wasn't overly easy especially at the weekend and the road was surprisingly busy in the evening.

Very comfortable

By Mr & Mrs Bailey on 02-Apr-2024

Lovely, comfortable cottage with beautiful views across the green. Everything provided that you would need. I’m sure we will return at some point.
