The Experience
With 14 acres of orchard, meadow and woodland to explore, you’d be forgiven for not wanting to leave this lovely spot. Two connected buildings (brick barn meets wood-clad) are full of considered touches, including a double-sided wood-burner dividing the Douglas Fir-panelled sitting room and the snug, and floor-to-ceiling windows framing green views wherever you turn.
After a day out, fire up the pizza oven — the thoughtful owners have left everything you need to get started — then sink into the wood-fired hot tub under the stars. Five bedrooms dressed in crisp linens on seriously good mattresses await, including a ground-floor king with windows on three sides and its own hammam.
Underlining it all is a real commitment to the land: reclaimed materials throughout, a ground-source heat pump, solar panels, and a wildflower meadow managed for bees and butterflies. Soak up those good vibes.

We think you'll love
- The complimentary 22kW EV charger (faster than most you’ll find)
- Spotting hares, deer and birds of prey from the window without even leaving the sofa
- Enjoying fruit from the orchard — apples, pears, plums and apricots — if your timing's right
You should know
- Dogs are welcome (up to two) but not on the furniture or upstairs, and must not be left unattended
- Wi-Fi can be a bit slow and 4G is patchy upstairs — OK if you're trying to switch off, less so if you need to stay connected
- There’s a travel cot and a high chair but no stairgate

Location
The neighbourhood
Halesworth (five mins' drive) for shops and a Wednesday market; the Queen's Head at Bramfield (one mile) serves good food every day. The Suffolk coast is on your doorstep — Southwold, Aldeburgh, Dunwich and RSPB Minsmere all within 30 minutes. Snape Maltings and Framlingham Castle (25 mins’ drive) are worth a visit. Owner Andy's guest guidebook highlights the best of everything.
