Escape with your special someone to this delightful converted stable sitting in a complex of properties in Palgrave. Sleeping two people in one bedroom, it’s the perfect romantic retreat for couples who want to explore the serene Suffolk countryside together. Spend happy hours strolling through the lively market town of Diss, finding cosy restaurants and independent boutiques along the way. In the evening, come home to toast some marshmallows at your cottage’s shared fire pit.
Find your spot in the private parking area and head into this gorgeous former stable. Head upstairs and you’ll find a stylish open-plan lounge/kitchen/dining area bathed in natural light from the Velux window. Make yourself at home by the wood burner, before you head to the sleek kitchen area to whip up some dinner to share at the dining table. Alternatively, step out into the large shared garden, fire up the BBQ and share a romantic al fresco feast. Afterwards, cosy up by the shared fire pit to toast marshmallows, or snuggle up by the wood burner in the cottage’s lounge area. At the end of the day, retreat to the king-size bedroom, which has a stylish en-suite bathroom with a shower over the bath. In the morning, kick off your day with a dip in the shared heated swimming pool, before you head to the shared treehouse to lose yourself in a good book, or set off to discover the complex’s 20 acres of secluded paddocks and woodlands.
Take a stroll into Palgrave (1 mile) to admire its 15th-century Church of St Peter (1 mile) and its many thatched or historic houses. Or explore the remains of the Norman motte-and-bailey castle at Eye Castle (5 miles), which is also a lovely spot for a picnic.
