Elfin Cottage for Two
Elfin Cottage is the self-contained annexe for two adults,
on the seaward side of Elfinston Corner, one of the most beautifully
situated houses in Walberswick. This secluded family home enjoys
superb panoramic views which draw the eye over field and marsh towards
the RSPB Nature Reserve at Minsmere, but primarily to the sea, which
is easily accessible along local paths.
Wildlife abounds in this quiet garden, including deer and foxes. It is a
birdwatchers' haven being visited by a great variety of garden birds, as well
as marsh birds (egrets, lapwings, marsh harriers and more) and migratory birds
in season. The extraordinary sound of bitterns booming can be heard.
Outdoors, alongside Elfin Cottage, are a table and chairs just for two, with
views to Walberswick village, the sea wall and beach. This east-facing sunny
spot is a perfect place to take breakfast, or, at the end of the day, to sit
and watch a full moon rise over the sea.
To welcome you and to encourage a relaxing stay a bottle of wine will
be in the house awaiting your arrival.
