The Studio is cleverly designed as short term accommodation for couples (or singles) with a secluded bedroom area, kitchen, sitting room area, bathroom and veranda. Its location is on the outskirts of the village of Waldringfield which is on the banks of the river Deben (pronounced Dee-ben). It has the feeling of complete seclusion and one can sit Read moreon the veranda watching the swifts overhead (at the right time of year!) without being overlooked. In my view it is perfect for those seeking quiet seclusion but within easy reach of a gastro-pub, riverside and (safe) walks through ancient marshes - so magical at sunset. Hide

The Studio was very clean and we enjoyed our stay. We wanted a peaceful break and we enjoyed watching the birds in the garden. We bought some seed for them and gave them some fresh water in the birdbath. We had two nice walks by the nearby river Deben but weather was too chilly during our stay to do more. If weather had been warmer we would have doRead morene more walks. The Maybush pub only a short walk away did a very good meal and has a nice view of the boats on the river. It is good that it is so near The Studio. Woodbridge is a short drive away. A Tesco superstore is also on the way to Woodbridge and has everything that you might need if you want to have a meal in The Studio. Hide

The Studio is very nice and well-presented with everything you need contained within the Studio. Parking is excellent on the site, and you can get the car boot open literally just a couple of feet away from the door entrance, which is helpful. A great shower, nice kitchen space with all you need, be it cooker and hot plates, microwave, fridge and aRead morell the cutlery and plates and glassware. The Pub/Restaurant is just a matter of a hop, skip and a jump away, as is the river itself. Nice walks and plenty of places of interest nearby. Would recommend. Hide

Very compact and cosy - real hideaway for two. We were thankful for the close proximity to the pub, as the weather was typical for January. When the weather was kinder, we were in awe of the riverside walk. The bird life on the River Deben was spectacular.

This is our second year at the Studio and we are planning to take it next year as well. It is an absolute delight for two people who are looking for a quiet, secluded retreat, yet in a village location and very close to the river Deben for sailing and swimming (the river Deben at Waldringfield has been approved for open water swimming by the DepartRead morement for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs).
