Idyllically located within private grounds on a historic working farm in the North Suffolk countryside, this stylish lodge promises a relaxed rural escape with peaceful views and your own private hot tub. It’s a great fit for couples, friends and small families who want an easy-going base with comforts on hand: pick up everyday essentials and local treats from the on-site shop, then follow footpaths that set off right from the door.
Inside, the welcoming lounge features comfortable seating around a coal-effect electric fire for relaxed evenings and film nights on the Smart TV with Blu-ray. A dining table sits alongside for unhurried meals and board games, with the adjoining kitchen keeping everyone together; an integrated ceiling radio adds a gentle soundtrack to the day. There are two bedrooms: the main room has a king-size bed and an en-suite shower room with WC, creating a private space to start and end each day. The second bedroom is a twin with zip-and-link beds that can be set up as a double on request, served by a family bathroom with a shower over the bath, a sauna and a WC. For added flexibility, a double pull-out sofa bed in the lounge is available for occasional guests. Slide open the door to a gated, decked veranda furnished with a table and chairs for simple al fresco dining, and enjoy the private hot tub sunken into the decking for convenient step-in access. BBQs are available to hire (subject to availability), and there’s a shared games room on site. Parking is on-site next to the lodge for straightforward loading and unloading.
