Leave behind the hustle and bustle of daily life and escape to the Waveney Valley to stay in this superb adults-only retreat. Set within a serene smallholding amid 20 acres of paddocks and woodland, this two-bedroom property is ideal for couples and groups of friends seeking a peaceful and rejuvenating break. With facilities including an outdoor swimming pool, a treehouse, hammocks, fire pits and a BBQ area shared with a handful of other properties, relaxation is assured.
Step through your private entrance and climb the stairs to this first-floor lodge, which overlooks the smallholding’s deer park. Set beneath the eaves with sloping ceilings adding character, it’s been fully renovated and finished to a high standard. Warm and inviting, the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner is the ideal spot to relax and unwind. Running along one wall and flooded with natural light from the sloping skylights, the kitchen is fully equipped for all your culinary needs. Gather around the dining table to savour your creations, then enjoy sociable evenings snuggled up on the sofas, with a selection of streaming services available on TV. Two gorgeous king-size bedrooms, both with relaxing seating and en-suite bathrooms, offer a blissful night’s sleep, while skylights allow you to stargaze from bed.
With the enchanting shared amenities plus a delightful menagerie of fallow deer, sheep, ducks, chickens, geese, peafowl, and guinea fowl wandering around, there’s plenty to do without leaving the grounds. A short walk along The Lows (0.3 miles) takes you to the ancient market town of Diss, where you can wander around Diss Mere, explore independent shops, and hop on a train running between Norwich and London. Located close to the border of Suffolk, this is a great base for exploring the Norfolk and Suffolk Broads and heritage coast.
