The barn sleeps 22 guests and there's plenty of space for everyone to enjoy a stay in rural Suffolk, along with lots to do including a hot tub and games.The generous facilities allow you to park the car up for a long weekend and not go anywhere.
Leading off the stunning sitting room, with its vaulted ceiling and huge fireplace, is a fabulous games room with pool table, a giant Connect 4, and, for those who fancy a bit of sing along, a karaoke machine! The large open-plan kitchen and dining space provides seating for everyone to enjoy a meal together and a further sitting room which gives more space if you just fancy curling up with a good book.

In addition to the hot tub, you can also play croquet, have a game of table tennis or try your hand at giant Jenga. The barn is set within two acres of grounds which you are welcome to explore.
