The Grade II-listed farmhouse is full of rustic charm, with its red brick exterior, exposed beams, and country cottage decor. At the heart of the home is the farmhouse kitchen/diner, boasting flagstone flooring, plenty of worktop space, a dining table and, just off the kitchen, a handy utility room. The separate dining room has a formal, banquet-style dining table and a cosy wood burner-effect electric fire. From the dining room, glass doors lead to a fabulous lounge with seating nestled around a Smart TV, a perfect spot for a movie night. Alternatively, grab your holiday read and head to the garden room to curl up on the sofa and unwind after a busy day. This room has a sofa bed to accommodate a further two guests if required. An elegant bathroom with a free-standing bath, walk in shower and WC completes the ground floor. Upstairs, four tastefully decorated bedrooms await, one of which have en-suite facilities. Outside, soak up the serenity in the attractive, walled garden. Make the most of the wonderful bar area, patio, lawn and hot tub, plus there’s private parking for five cars.

East Harling boasts pubs, a tearoom, and a handful of shops. The village is the perfect base for outdoor enthusiasts, with access to the network of walking and cycling trails through Thetford Forest Park. The picturesque market town of Diss, with its beautiful, timber-framed houses, is 11 miles and has a great range of independent shops and eateries. Bury St Edmunds (20 miles) also makes a lovely day out.

Fabulous farmhouse, private walled gardens with hot tub, plenty of outdoor furniture, bar, bbqs. Great for the dogs - close to the forest for walks. Lovely big kitchen accommodated 9 of us for Sunday dinner. Super comfy beds. Highly recommended.

We booked a little weekend away to celebrate our best-friend getting married in the upcoming months. The place was absolutely stunning, so clean and tidy. There was so much room, everything was just perfect. Lovely sitting area for people to relax in and lounge about. Was a lovely atmosphere from the surroundings. A few shops/takeaways close by.Read more Mark (the owner) came and met us as we started to arrive and was so lovely and helpful. He gave us a tour of the property and showed us how to get the hot tub working. Whenever we had any questions whilst we were there, we were able to just send a message and hed reply and pop over. Mark was really helpful and a great host, and even left us a few goodies to get us started. We were so happy with our whole experience, weve decided that well be coming back next year! Thank-you again, Mark! We truly had an incredible time. Hide

Middle Farmhouse is a wonderful place to stay! It feels so much more spacious than it looks in the photos. We had a family of 12 plus the dog and we had plenty of room to gather or stay out of each others way. This included a last-minute additional guest which was no problem at all, and we were so grateful for this. We went to celebrate my Mum's 75Read moreth birthday so we had a multi-generational group (ages 2 -75) and it was the perfect place for us all. There's so much to do nearby for adults and kids - and lots of lovely walking spots. The hot tub was fabulous and Mark and Michelle provided us with a welcome basket which was a lovely touch. We would love to come back again! Hide
