2 Bed in Athelington (oc-d35071)

Look forward to a memorable break at this homely lodge set within private grounds on a historic working farm in the North Suffolk countryside. It offers peaceful views, a private hot tub and an easy-going base for couples, friends and small families. Pick up everyday essentials and local treats from the on-site shop, then head out on footpaths that begin right from the door. For days out, climb the ramparts at Framlingham Castle (8.5 miles), ride the heritage trains at the Mid-Suffolk Light Railway (9.5 miles), or meet the animals at Easton Farm Park (12 miles). Nature lovers can plan a birdwatching day at RSPB Minsmere (21 miles), while family attractions await at Stonham Barns Shopping Village (11 miles).

Step inside to a welcoming lounge where comfortable seating surrounds a coal-effect electric fire, setting the tone 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 while you prep, cook and serve; an integrated ceiling radio brings a gentle soundtrack to your day. The main bedroom has a king-size bed and its own 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 arranged as a king-size on request. It is served by a family bathroom featuring a shower over the bath, a sauna and a WC, ideal whether you prefer a quick freshen-up or a long, warming session after time outdoors. 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. The private hot tub is sunken into the decking for convenient step-in access, perfect for an evening soak as the countryside settles. BBQs are available to hire (subject to availability), and shared facilities on site include a games room. Parking is on-site next to the lodge for easy loading and unloading.
