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.

Reviews

The house exuded a sense of calm and relaxation as soon as I arrived. I love the modern furnishings and the clean, unfussy decor. The large windows mean you can always see the lovely grounds. The Chatterbox is a perfect location for visiting attractions on/near the Suffolk coast. At the same time it’s an ideal spot to have a relaxed break, catching up with family or friends in luxurious surroundings.

The house and grounds are stunning. We seriously enjoyed our stay and would love to visit again.

We really enjoyed our stay and thought the house was beautiful. The large windows throughout mean you can admire the scenery from various seats in the house. The beds were comfortable, bathrooms functioned very well and the laundry room came in handy. We were staying at a time when the weather was 22-25C outside and the bedrooms felt very warm at night, even with a fan in the room. Would suggest summer linen/quilts for warmer weather weeks. Overall a great house and helpful hosts.

What a stunning house!!! We stayed for my Dads 60th birthday and had the most amazing time. We had a private chef come in to cook for us and it just worked so well with the space. We also ate at the pub in Bramfield and the food was very nice. The beds were incredibly comfortable and rooms spacious. The hot tub was a very lovely touch too. Thank you for such a wonderful stay.
