Very clean and tidy arrived today, very cosy, going into Sudbury for a meal. We found this cottage a little remote for us. No local shop and places to eat were not local. If you want a quite break this is ideal, we could not fault the cottage is very quaint.

A relaxing stay in Rose Cottage, just what we needed. Totally away from hustle and bustle of life. However everything you could need to make your stay comfortable. Great walks through the countryside. Bikes are an added bonus too.. Can recommend the Fox and Hounds in Groton for a meal which was a good walk away, staff very friendly. The owners of Grove Cottages are so friendly, wouldn't hesitate to ask them for anything but we didn't need to.... Everything had been taken into consideration. True professionals.

Just stayed again in Kersey, at one of Grove Cottages' best properties. It's so peaceful, a beautiful medieval house, with a gorgeous garden - and almost opposite the historic Bell Inn. Great service and support from the Grove team and we were well-looked after by Joanna locally. Strongly recommended.
