1 Bed Lodge in Athelington

About this property

Set on a historic North Suffolk farm dating back to 1620, this comfortable countryside lodge promises peaceful days, star-filled nights, and time to unwind in your own hot tub. Pick up essentials from the on-site shop, enjoy gentle walks from the door, and savour the laid-back pace of rural life. When you feel like exploring, climb the ramparts at Framlingham Castle (8.5 miles), hop aboard a vintage train at the Mid Suffolk Light Railway (9.5 miles) or meet friendly animals at Easton Farm Park (12 miles). For a mix of shopping and attractions, head to Stonham Barns Shopping Village (11 miles), while nature lovers can spot wildlife at RSPB Minsmere (21 miles). The Suffolk coast is within 25 miles for breezy beach days and coastal strolls.

Inside, an inviting open-plan living space brings cooking, dining and relaxing together, with a cosy lounge area for film nights and unhurried mornings. Sink into the sofa, switch on the Smart TV, DVD or Blu-ray, and set a mellow mood with the coal-effect electric fire. The dining table is perfectly positioned for lingering suppers, and the kitchen area has all you need for easy self-catering. After a day out, retreat to the serene bedroom, where a distinctive wing-backed double bed sets the tone for a restful night. The en suite bathroom features a bath, a shower and a WC, along with your own in lodge sauna for spa-style relaxation.

Outside, a gated veranda offers a private spot for al fresco dining, with a table and chairs, and the hot tub is sunken into the deck for easy soaks beneath big Suffolk skies. You’ll also find garden furniture for lazy afternoons, BBQs available to hire, and peaceful rural views across the farm. Private parking is provided next to the property.
