This stylish lodge in Elmswell blends countryside calm with modern comfort. Featuring a bright open-plan living area with plenty of natural light and French doors that bring the outdoors in, this family-friendly home, which sleeps four guests, offers a peaceful retreat for relaxing or entertaining in a welcoming village setting.

Step inside this charming lodge and instantly feel the calming atmosphere. Kick off your walking boots and flop onto the comfortable sofa in front of the light-filled French doors. The farmhouse-style sage kitchen is delightful and ready for anything, whether you're making a quick coffee or rustling up a feast. As does the rest of this open-plan room, the dining table is bathed in sunshine thanks to French doors that swing open onto a big wooden veranda leading to a pond. It's the ideal spot to enjoy your morning brew or wind down with a glass of wine. When bedtime rolls around, two cosy bedrooms promise a great night's sleep, so you wake up refreshed and ready for whatever the day brings.

If you love discovering charming towns and countryside trails, this spot is perfect for you and your partners in crime. Just 9 miles from historic Bury St Edmunds, you can wander its boutique shops and enjoy seafood dishes at its many pubs and restaurants. The 14-acre Abbey Gardens is a must for attractive flower displays, or for something a little different, head 6.5 miles to Wyken Vineyards for wine tasting, homemade treats, and a lively weekend farmers' market. The area is well-connected by rail and road with access to Cambridge, Ipswich and London.

A lovely light spacious lodge and nice decking area and pond. Great base for exploring by car or train. Friendly welcome and quiet location. Great for wildlife spotting, lots of ducks, birds of prey, deer and pheasants.

Warm, bright, cosy, comfortable. Good size bedrooms with comfy beds. Little kitchen with everything you need. Wonderful views across the pond ( baby ducks too ) and the fields beyond, we saw deer and a hare. Excellent Wi-Fi and nice to have Netflix too. Very friendly and helpful owner. We would absolutely book again.

Very pleasant stay at Mulberry Farm Lodge. Really quiet, peaceful, relaxing. Easy to get to, well equipped, spotlessly clean and very comfortable. If we are in the area, we'll definitely stay here again, if only to see how things went for the ducklings!

Well equipped lodge in peaceful location overlooking pond and wildlife. Good location with shops and a train station for exploring the locality without always having to drive. There's a Pub a short walk away, although I didn't go in. The underfloor heating was slow to work, so I'd recommend taking some jumpers if you're visiting in cooler weather.

We had a very good time at The Lodge. It might prove a little small for four people but it is ideal for two. A well-furnishes development with some nice touches.

The lodge was lovely, very comfortable, clean and well equipped. It is in beautiful surroundings with its own private pond which was fascinating to sit by and watch the visitors, families of ducks and moorhens, dragonflies to name a few. Our hosts were very welcoming and Eliza couldn't have been more helpful. And thank you for the extras you lRead moreeft us which was very thoughtful. Hide
