Lodge 38 receives high praise for its spotlessly clean and spacious accommodation, peaceful setting, and excellent amenities for both families and dogs. Guests frequently mention the well-equipped kitchen, comfortable beds, and thoughtful touches such as a welcome basket. The lodge’s garden and direct access to a field are especially appreciated by dog owners. While a few minor suggestions for improvement are noted, such as more outdoor seating and lighter bedding in summer, the overall experience is overwhelmingly positive, with many guests eager to return.
Cleanliness is consistently highlighted, with multiple guests describing the lodge as spotless, immaculate, and very well maintained. Only one review mentioned having to rewash some glasses, but this was a minor issue compared to the overwhelmingly positive feedback.
The location is described as peaceful, quiet, and ideal for dog walking, with easy access to a field and proximity to local attractions. A few guests noted the site felt more residential than holiday-focused, but most found the setting relaxing and convenient.
Guests found the lodge spacious, cosy, and comfortable, with special mention of comfy beds and sofas. The accommodation suited families, couples, and those with mobility needs. One guest mentioned the duvet was too heavy for summer, but comfort was otherwise highly rated.
The lodge is praised for being well-equipped, with everything needed for a relaxing stay. Some minor suggestions included more outdoor seating, a patio table, and lighter bedding. Facilities for dogs and children, as well as on-site activities, were appreciated.
Many guests appreciated the welcome basket and thoughtful touches throughout the lodge. Please note that gifts such as welcome baskets are mentioned by previous guests but cannot be guaranteed for every stay.

If you can tear yourself from Stonham Barns, no visit to Suffolk is complete without a trip to the stunning Suffolk coast. In 1910 Stuart Ogilvie bought the hamlet and set to transform it into a private fantasy holiday village. Today the village is just how Ogilvie envisaged it, with pretty mock Tudor houses. You can hire boats and take a trip round the picturesque six thousand acre Mere to see the islands and inlets all named by J M Barrie the author of Peter Pan where you will see statues of Wendy and Peter Pan. Every August a regatta is held on the Mere which culminates in a torchlit parade of boats and fireworks. Whether you’re seeking relaxation or adventure, the lodge on Stonham Barns promises a delightful and unforgettable escape.

Absolutely faultless, what a find. Spotlessly clean, spacious, everything you need for a relaxing break. Our pooches loved it especially having their own mahoosive field behind, what a treat for them. We will definitely be back. Thank you so much for the hamper, the fizz wet down really well. Your lodge is a credit to you.
