Home description
Deep in the Suffolk countryside, this lodge is one of a pair of self catering cottages on a working farm. The farm combines growing arable crops with raising 'free-range' Bronze and Norfolk Black Turkeys which are reared according to the Traditional Farmfresh Turkey Association [TFTA] high standards with full time attention 7 days a week.
The cottages have been recently built in timber in an Australian style with a verandah and provide both spacious and stylish accommodation for two couples or a small family, with a travel cot provided for a baby.
One of the attractions to this lodge is that all the accommodation is on one level with a ramp for wheel chairs or prams/buggies, and with easy access into the shower cubicle for those with mobility difficulties. Other attractions include comfortable furniture and attractive furnishings, a large range of equipment meeting Tourist Board standards and the personal attention of the owners of the farm who will meet and greet you at the lodge.
Secondly, the addition of a wide and spacious veranda on which to sit and enjoy the peaceful Suffolk landscape is a true bonus and finally, you are invited to fish in the lake and this is included in the price of the holiday.
