By Carl Scott
This blog post introduces you to a video that I shot to answer the common question of “Do you accept cats?”. It’s also part of our You Ask, We Answer series, where we answer tons of FAQ’s and give you lots of information to help you get the most out of Suffolk.
At Woodfarm Barns & Barges, we understand that planning the perfect getaway involves many questions and uncertainties. To help you navigate through these and to ensure you have the best experience possible, we’ve launched our ‘You Ask, We Answer’ initiative. This approach isn’t just about promoting our Barns, Cottages and Barges; it’s about providing valuable information, solutions, and peace of mind to our prospective guests.
Anyway, this is the video, and the transcript is below it if you wish to go back over anything.
This is what I said…
Why We Don’t Accept Cats at Woodfarm
Hello, it’s Carl here! A question we occasionally get asked is whether or not we accept cats in our Barns, Cottages, and Barges. Unfortunately, the answer is no. Let me explain why.
Our Experience with Cats
In the past, I’ve accepted cats on two or three occasions, but unfortunately, it didn’t go well. The main issue has been that some cats, when placed in a new environment, can become stressed. This stress has led to problems like scratching leather sofas and other furniture, which, as you can imagine, is far from ideal. I’ve always tried to avoid charging for such damages, but it’s not a situation anyone wants to be in.
Protecting Our Properties
Because of these experiences, we’ve made the difficult decision not to accept cats in any of our properties. It’s not about being discriminatory—it’s simply about ensuring that our properties remain in the best possible condition for all of our guests.
