How far away from the sun does space start to be cold?

I assume that if I stood on the sun, I would be hot. I similarly assume that if I stood about 10 feet from the sun, I would still be hot. However, if I stood in space 93 million miles away, I would be really cold. At what distance from the sun would things be comfy (assuming I can wear a pressurized space suit)?

Would they be comfy only on the side facing the sun, so I'd need to keep turning around?
