A week in the countryside

A very comfortable stay, with lots of room four of us and a dog. The house is in the middle of the countryside with horses in the next field - my wife loved seeing them every day! So much of Suffolk is within a short drive from Skelder and we were busy visiting lovely villages, walking many trails and going to pubs. The EV charging station at the house was a great plus. Definitely a little English gem.”
