The owners were very welcoming but not intrusive during my stay. The barn is in lovely surroundings with a great area for the dog to have a wander. A real retreat in the countryside.

The little barn and grounds are beautiful. The barn is fully equipped and the welcome box was a lovely extra. Great location with loads of places near enough to drive to visit. Southwold is a must to see a picturesque seaside town with lovely shops. Bungay and Beccles are nice too. Would certainly recommend this property to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway. Thank you Caren and Guy for a lovely 5 night stay in the little barn. Your home is beautiful 😊
