This superb converted barn offers luxurious accommodation that includes an open-plan living space with a wood burner and three bedrooms with their own bathrooms. Ideal for families or groups of friends, it’s located in the quintessential country village of Hawkedon, close to Bury St Edmunds and within reach of Suffolk’s famous Wool Towns.
This impressive holiday destination has real wow-factor inside and out. Step down into the hallway, where there’s a handy desk in case of unavoidable admin, and into the fabulous open-plan living space. It’s a seamless transition from cooking a meal in the Shaker-style kitchen (which has a wine fridge and a breakfast bar for two) to enjoying it at the dining table, then relaxing on the sofas in the lounge area - perhaps playing a board game or watching a movie on the Smart TV. A utility room with laundry facilities complements the kitchen, and on this floor you’ll also find a handsome twin bedroom (with a Smart TV) and a shower room. The remaining two bedrooms, both with vaulted ceilings and characterful exposed beams, are on the first floor: a sumptuous king-size with a Smart TV and an en-suite shower room, and another king-size which has use of a bathroom with a claw-foot bath. The enclosed garden has a small patio area with a picnic bench, plus an expanse of lawn with five-bar gates that lead directly onto the village green.
Hawkedon has an excellent pub serving delicious food (especially Sunday roasts) and is surrounded by footpaths. It’s a great base for exploring Suffolk, just 9 miles from the historic market town of Bury St Edmunds, home to the smallest pub in Britain and the county’s only cathedral. The Wool Towns of Long Melford and Lavenham are less than 10 miles away.
