    Ann was very welcoming and is an interesting lady to talk to. The bed was comfortable and cosy, and breakfast was delicious and varied. The garden and outlook are lovely, although the January weather meant we couldn't see it at its summer best!...

Long bungalow with white painted cast iron porch with open plan garden with mature trees and lawn to front and the most amazing scenery overlooking the Waveney Valley to the rear of the property with the breakfast room and bedrooms having a glorious view. There is a wild meadow at the end of the garden , a variety of mature trees including a Ginko Biloba .in the spacious open plan garden overlooking the Waveney Valley and lots of nooks and crannies for you to explore. There is now a different view at the front of the garden where two trees have been removed and a new view has been created looking across to an open wooded area. At least 5 different sitting areas dotted around including the tiny secret courtyard garden. All for your pleasure. The decor in the main areas is dressed in an interesting assortment of antiques, lots of colour and artwork with a lean towards textiles that I have collected from all over the world. Having lived in 12 different countries, I have enjoyed textiles for over 50 years and like to live with them. The conservatory is comfortable and has a fabulous view. As everything is on one level, it is easy to walk and be safe .so suitable for the less agile guest.
I am a retired interior designer with a love of the decorative with a great interest in textiles, central asian cloth being a specialist subject. I paint with acrylics and combine photography and collage with my artwork. I hoard a large variety of decorative objects, inside the house and in the garden. They have been collected from all over the world and most make a good talking point! My pottery on poles in the garden are my first attempt at working in clay, very time consuming but great fun to do. I have now started a sculpture wall with items, mainly birds and flowers that help an otherwise bare wall!
On a hill looking over the countryside. Being by the rivers of East Anglia makes this a special area for those seeking a quiet place. We are also only half an hour from the nearest beach and yet the delights of Norwich city all within half an hour as well. The unspoilt seaside town of Southwold is just within 25minutes and rural Suffolk and Norfolk right on my doorstep. Mainline London Liverpool street is one and threequarters hours away from Diss. Collecting you from Norwich or Diss railway stations can be arranged. A 20 minutes journey from station to my home. We have a Bungay golf course within 5 minutes by car, the walks by the river running through Bungay, the old Bigod Castle, charming boutique shops in Earsham Street including one called The Little Black Dog Wardrobe, with preloved clothes and owned by my daughter Elizabeth. There are fabulous places to eat, including The Three Cooks, The Fleece , Earsham Street Cafe, great Pizzeria called Stonebake . with a local vineyard Flint just on the slopes overlooking the A143 which runs alongside the Waveney Vallery.. So many lovely venues all within 2..6 mins of Folly Studio.
