This lovely rural retreat in the peaceful Suffolk countryside offers the perfect hideaway for two. The barn conversion, just outside the pretty village of Wilby, is beautifully furnished and comfortable, with attention to every detail, and has a charming private garden. Just a mile away, find independent shops, including a bakery and traditional pubs, in the lively village of Stradbroke, along with a swimming pool and gym. The quiet country lanes and footpaths surrounding your holiday haven are tailor-made for tranquil walks and bike rides, while the wider landscape has a wealth of attractions to enjoy.
Your holiday home forms part of an adjoining property but is completely separate, with its own entrance and garden. Inside, the light and airy open-plan living area is thoughtfully designed to enhance the barn’s traditional character and original features. Curl up on stylish sofas in the lounge area to watch the Smart TV and rustle up tasty treats in the streamlined kitchen. The dining table overlooks the inviting garden, while a shower room completes the ground floor. Follow the stairs up to a sumptuous, king-size bedroom offering lovely country views and a luxurious bathroom, complete with a feature bath. Outside is a large patio housing garden furniture and a BBQ, with decked seating overlooking a small lake. There is off-road parking for two cars.
Visit Wilby’s tranquil village church, set in a beautifully kept churchyard, before exploring two bustling market towns, both within 8 miles. Climb to the top of Framlingham’s magnificent 12th-century castle for breathtaking views across the countryside and visit Eye, renowned for its splendid church and a wealth of fine, historic buildings. The markets in both towns are a great place to shop for fresh local produce, along with independent shops. Surround yourself with flowers at the spectacular 16th-century Helmingham Hall Gardens and deer park (12.5 miles), and enjoy a day at the seaside in the delightful towns of Southwold and Aldeburgh (both 20 miles).
