The Old House

Eye, East Anglia

The Old House
Tucked away in Eye, Suffolk, The Old House is a spacious cottage sleeping seven, making it a good match for a family holiday or a get-together with friends. The surrounding East Anglian countryside is quiet, with Diss station just 4.3 miles off if you'd rather arrive by train.

There's a trio of museums within easy reach for a change of pace: the Cotton Mechanical Music Museum & Bygones and Diss Museum are both 4.2 miles away, while the Mid Suffolk Light Railway is a little further at 5.5 miles. Between them you've plenty to fill a rainy afternoon, with the rest of your stay free for wandering Eye itself and the lanes beyond.
