Orford’s old fire station

A fabulous, contemporary, newly refurbed two storey house, built where the original Orford Fire station used to be. It's stylishly renovated and very comfortable, and is perfect for two couples or a family with up to 3 kids & a baby. It's in a tranquil location in a sought after area in the picturesque coastal village of Orford (named as being one of the twenty most beautiful villages in the UK and Ireland by Conde Nast). It's a v short walk to central Orford.

The space
Accommodation is spacious and arranged over two floors: the ground floor is open plan, and light and airy thanks to the fully glazed front wall.

At the back is a really well equipped, recently redone kitchen and dining area with an American style fridge/freezer, dishwasher, microwave, washer/dryer, oven and hob. We hope we have every kitchen item you could possibly want, but please let us know if you find something we don’t have!

There’s very high speed internet so you could work from there, if needed. We also have BT TV with Now TV and Netflix and a new telly and sound bar.

There are bi-fold doors to a courtyard garden with an outdoor sofa set and table.

Next to the reception room is a shower room with shower and WC.

Upstairs there's an impressive master bedroom, with huge glass windows and a velux. It’s a really comfy King size bed with a very high quality mattress.
We have a small desk so any home workers could base themselves in there.

At the back of the house is another double bedroom with a double bed and single bunk above it. Again, both mattresses are of the highest quality.
There's also room for a travel cot in this room. The main bathroom is between the two bedrooms and has a bath.

Orford has become a bit of a foodie's paradise, with the Pump Street Bakery, the Butley Orford Oysterage and Pinneys, as long as several pubs and an excellent village shop.

Fabulous stay in the heart of Orford

The house is modern and well designed with an open plan kitchen/diner/lounge that is spacious and very comfortable. The house was immaculate and the beds and bathrooms were excellent.
