"We stayed in a really nice lodge that was super accessible, with a ramp and a wet room which was great. Even though neither of us are wheelchair users, we noticed some things might be tricky for others, like the hot tub access and limited space between the bed and table. Overall, the place was modern, well-equipped and really comfy - wed definitely come back!"

"We recently stayed at a lovely little spot that was so peaceful and quiet, just what we needed. Right now, there are only two pods, but its clear theyre planning to add two more soon. The pods are super modern and spacious enough for a comfy stay, with all the latest tech-two TVs, WiFi, Bluetooth sound system. Each pod is well separated, so you really feel tucked away from the neighbours. The hot tub was spotlessly clean and just the right size for relaxing. Its a bit remote, but only about a 15-minute walk to The Angel pub, which we highly recommend - just dont forget your torch for the walk back in the dark! A quick drive takes you to Southwold, which is a charming seaside town. Melanie was a lovely host, very welcoming. All in all, a really enjoyable stay-definitely five stars from us!"

"We really enjoyed our stay at this cosy cabin. The outdoor Mediterranean style decor, complete with BBQ and fire pit, was lovely and the hot tub was a real treat! Parking was hassle-free and the location was super peaceful, surrounded by wildlife-though those 3:30am cockerel calls took some getting used to. Just a heads up, the bunk beds are best suited for kids under about 10, as the height limit isnt clear from the start. Easy to get to Southwold too. The host was very helpful and friendly. A great little getaway!"

"We had a fantastic stay! The lodge was spotless and thoughtfully equipped - from the shoe rack and hooks to the outdoor seating and wood for the log burner. The owners were super friendly, which made us feel really welcome. Watching the woodpecker in the cherry tree was a lovely surprise. Plus, the bus into Southwold was handy and the local pub nearby was perfect for a quick drink. Definitely recommend!"
