Reviews

Anne 9/10
United Kingdom 🇬🇧

Pros: Very clean, comfortable place to stay. All the facilities that are needed for a short break in a beautiful part of our country, ideal for days out in Suffolk.The barn annexe has its own entrance and there is off road parking. A short car ride to The three horseshoe inn, a 17th century building serving delicious food by helpful friendly staff. Definitely a place to stay and enjoy

Cons: Maybe a larger fridge.More room for the local produce that is so tempting to buy

Clairess 8/10
United Kingdom 🇬🇧

Pros: Location, cleanliness, and was well equipped with a microwave, toaster and kettle as well as utensils. With off road parking.

Cons: The noise from the road, when not used to it it seemed loud and I struggled to sleep.

Andrew 10/10
United Kingdom 🇬🇧

A calm, comfortable escape in a beautiful setting—exactly what we needed.

Pros: The barn was spotless, warm, and beautifully kept. The setting was peaceful, with plenty of space and a real sense of privacy. Everything felt well-looked-after, and it was exactly the quiet reset we needed. The hosts clearly put care into the place, and it shows.

Cons: Honestly, nothing major. If anything, I just wish we’d booked an extra night—two days wasn’t enough.
