Company info

Many of our cottages have been welcoming guests for over a decade during which time we have managed thousands of bookings for highly satisfied guests. Idyllic Cottages was born in the Stour Valley with Charlie Allsopp being brought up in Dedham which is at the very heart of this area of outstanding natural beauty (AONB). Charlie runs the business and leads the extended team that looks after all our guests from initial enquiry through to the end of their stays. With excellent local knowledge and close relationships with property owners, we are able to guide you through your decision making and answer questions that only true local natives can. We are available pretty much all hours to look after you as we are committed to ensuring all guests have the best possible stay feeling fully revived and recharged.

Property info

A large and wonderfully proportioned conversion of an old farm building off the beaten track set within the 300 acre grounds of Moat Hall. With high ceilings, wood burner, exposed beams, classic interior décor and antique furniture, the Calf Pens make a distinctive and extremely comfortable rural getaway tucked away on the edge of the Dedham Vale, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. There are delightful country walks and landscaped lakes to help you lose yourself in the beautiful rolling countryside that inspired John Constable.
