Description
On the edge of Tunstall Forest (an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty), Scapa Lodge provides well designed and appointed self-catering accommodation for two. A single-storey barn beautifully extended and refurbished to create a well-insulated, cosy and comfortable holiday home. Boasting a bright, chic interior, the Lodge is perfect for a couple looking for quiet surroundings. Guests can enjoy the delights of woodland walks, bird watching and cycling without ever getting into the car.
It is also the perfect spot for all you stargazers. With little light pollution here at Scapa Lodge, just standing outside the patio door, on a clear night the skies can be full of stars and planets for you to admire.
Scapa Lodge has been thoughtfully arranged to provide open-plan living space with a well-appointed fitted kitchen, a feature apex ceiling with skylights and a cosy sitting area for two. In the sitting area, French doors open onto a private paved patio with views over the garden beyond.
Why we love this property: The exciting contrast between the exterior and interior ignites the senses and the open plan layout is perfect for a couple’s retreat.

Tunstall, a country village 6 miles from the Suffolk coast, is home to the Church of St Michael's, noted for its distinctive box pews. Scapa Lodge is located in the hamlet of Tunstall Common which lies half a mile south of Tunstall on the margins of Tunstall Forest, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. It provides walkers, cyclists (including mountain-bikers) and horse riders alike a beautiful site of ancient lowland heath to explore. Nature lovers might like to see the broadleaved trees and new coniferous plantation rife, with fauna and flora (ground nesting nightjar and woodlark, fallow deer, bell heather, milkwort, speedwell and sheep). Bookworms will be fascinated in the hamlet and forest; it is the setting of Robert Louis Stevenson's The Black Arrow: A Tale of Two Roses (1888) of which there is a copy of in the lodge for you to read.
