Treat yourself to a luxurious break at this gorgeous barn conversion sitting in a stylish complex of properties in the idyllic village of Lound. Sleeping six people across three bedrooms, it’s an elegant accommodation option for large families or groups of friends in search of a chic cottage to call home while they explore the untamed beauty of the Suffolk coast together. During the day, head to Lound Lakes Nature Reserve to explore its 113 hectares of reservoirs, woodlands, grassland and meadows. The bird-watchers in your group will be delighted by the reserve’s geese, ducks and reed warblers. In the evening, come home to the cottage’s shared garden to enjoy a well-earned soak in the hot tub.

Park in the private parking area (there’s room for three vehicles) and step inside this exquisite barn-conversion. You’ll be greeted by a resplendent open-plan space with kitchen and dining areas, as well as two distinct lounge areas. One lounge area has two sofas sitting beside a glowing wood burner, perfect for those chilly nights, while the other has a nine-seater sofa set around a large Smart TV – the ideal place for movie night. This sumptuous open-plan space is beautifully styled and adorned with luxurious touches like limestone floors, granite surfaces and stunning artwork. When it’s time to eat, head to the kitchen area to whip up some dinner for your loved ones. Savour an elegant meal at the large, formal dining table, or step through the French doors from the kitchen and head out into the beautiful shared courtyard garden to dine alfresco. After dinner, take a relaxing dip in the outdoor hot tub, or head back to the chic lounge area to warm your toes by the cosy wood burner. At the end of the day, climb the elegant custom-made staircase and you’ll find three opulent bedrooms – one sophisticated emperor-size and one double (both boast en-suite bathrooms with Jacuzzi baths with showers over), as well as a spacious double with its own en-suite shower room.

Grab your hiking boots and set off on a leisurely stroll through beautiful ancient woodlands at Gunton Wood (4 miles). If you have the kids with you, they’ll adore the thrilling rides at Pleasurewood Hills Family Theme Park (7.5 miles). Enjoy the panoramic country views from the ‘Sky Trails’ high ropes course or try your luck in the arcades.
