Guests say

The Lodge in Wherstead is highly praised for its comfort, beautiful furnishings, and friendly hosts. Guests enjoy the restful atmosphere, the lovely setting with countryside walks, and the proximity to local attractions. The unique experience of being close to various animals is a highlight. Some guests suggest minor improvements, but overall, the sentiment is overwhelmingly positive with many looking forward to return visits.

There is no specific mention of cleanliness in the reviews, so it is not possible to provide an accurate score.

The location is frequently mentioned as amazing and ideal for visiting nearby attractions such as Jimmy's farm, Ipswich, and Woodbridge. The countryside setting is also appreciated for walks.

Guests find The Lodge very comfortable, with first-class furniture and a restful atmosphere. The repeated visits and intentions to return suggest a high level of comfort.

The facilities are generally well-received, though there are suggestions for improvement such as a wardrobe in the bedroom, a switch for bath and kitchen heating, and instructions for the heating and oven.

The hosts are described as lovely, and the welcome pack is mentioned positively on multiple occasions. However, it should be noted that such gifts are a kind gesture and not guaranteed.

About this property

A fabulous, single-storey lodge for two nestled in the heart of the Suffolk countryside in Wherstead on the Shotley Peninsula. Sleeping up to two guests in one bedroom, here couples can enjoy a peaceful, romantic break whilst benefiting from the short driving distance to Ipswich.

Set privately within the grounds of the owner's house, The Lodge in Wherstead provides all ground floor accommodation with a stunning decked area over looking the gardens. The kitchen has been equipped with a combination microwave and hob, and fridge with icebox so it's possible to cook a simple evening meal or enjoy a cooked breakfast. However, with so many delightful restaurants and pubs to enjoy locally, you might find yourself dining out each evening, you are on holiday after-all! The safari themed open-plan sitting and dining room has comfy seating, wall-mounted Smart television and a dining area with seating for up to two guests, and further seats can be found in the kitchen. The light and airy bedroom with wall-to-wall windows features a luxurious 6' super-king size bed which can be configured as twin 3' single beds on request - ideal for two friends holidaying together or a mother-daughter duo. The Lodge boasts a contemporary shower room with large walk-in shower.

Outside, there is a large, private deck accessed through french doors in the sitting room. The deck overlooks the pretty garden and is an ideal spot for enjoying some peace and tranquillity. Parking is available for up to one car.

The village of Wherstead is located three miles south of Ipswich along the Shotley Peninsula, an unspoiled area of Suffolk with beautiful views and landscapes.

    We love it here, twice we’ve been and will back in 6 weeks! Amazing place for us stay

    Beautiful first class furniture and furnishings in a newly fitted comfortable lodge with wonderful views over the garden. Ideal for visiting Jimmys farm within half a mile, Ipswich and Woodbridge. The owner was very friendly and helpful. It would benefit from a wardrobe in the bedroom, and the addition of a switch for bath and kitchen heating. Would highly recommend The Lodge.
