Just outside the pretty village of Stonham Aspal in Suffolk you will find Stour Barn, a rustic yet luxurious meadow cottage with private hot tub where you can relax, unwind and escape the urban whirlwind. Bottle of champagne and a box of handmade Suffolk chocolates with every booking! Winners of a 2022 Visit England ROSE Award (Recognition of Service Excellence).
Nestled into the mature trees around a peaceful pond, Stour Barn is one of a cluster of delightful cottages where the emphasis is on home comforts and rural living. High vaulted ceilings, exposed oak beams and an open log fire keep things traditional and characterful, while the TV/DVD player, iPod dock and ‘watering can’ style shower provide contemporary touches. And all around you is the beautiful Suffolk countryside, full of quiet lanes, picturesque villages and welcoming pubs. Where better for a romantic break? Dogs stay for free!
Rural Suffolk is a haven of country lanes, clear skies and wildlife so it’s the perfect destination when you want to escape the hustle and bustle. Walking and cycling are popular here, and activities like sailing, windsurfing and kayaking are available both on and offshore, or if you prefer gentler pursuits there are plenty of medieval buildings and historic houses to explore. The Heritage Coast, just half an hour away, is truly picturesque and has the well-known tourist spots of Aldeburgh, Orford and Southwold dotted along it. Or you could discover the awe-inspiring scenery of Dedham Vale, go shopping in a local craft and farm shop, or sit back in one of the many superb pubs and eateries on your doorstep.
