Gipping Barn: further information
By Carl Scott
SLEEPS 2: Light the fire, pour the wine, and press pause on the noise. From your hot tub to your hideaway bed, Gipping Barn is built for switching off and settling in. Private Hot Tub in a covered garden room awaits you in Gipping Barn. Mezzanine double bedroom with a wonderful double wooden sleigh bed.
Fully enclosed courtyard garden, and up to 3 dogs welcome.
Gipping Barn finer details
The lounge has a huge high ceiling with oak timbers and a comfy leather sofa opposite the wood burner and your Smart TV.
Your downstairs shower room leads off the lounge and a hand-made wooden staircase winds up to the mezzanine. There is also a good-sized enclosed dog-friendly garden.
The fully equipped kitchen/diner is well laid out with ample work surface, a Welsh dresser, range cooker, Belfast sink, microwave and fridge, kettle and four-slice toaster. The kitchen area leads through to an open living area with a comfy, squishy sofa set back into the bay window, a lovely log-burning fire and smart TV.
There is a well-organised luxury shower room on the ground floor of your holiday cottage, with a good-sized fixed rose ‘watering can’ style shower, loo and hand basin with luxury hand soap.
Gipping Barn has cosy underfloor heating at no extra cost. We can provide logs for your wood-burning fire, which we offer at cost as your holiday cottage is already heated.
Dog Owners
Because of our fully enclosed gardens, we are happy to welcome dogs in all our luxury holiday Barns. We normally welcome up to three dogs. We even leave dog treats, as well as a delicious local breakfast basket for the humans!
We also have a huge fully secure two-acre meadow for our four-legged guests to run around and play with each other, along with seating for the two-legged guests to chat as well! There’s a smaller section inside for nervous or older dogs to exercise on their own.
Hot Tub Luxury in Suffolk
Outside you have a fully enclosed private garden, with a fabulous ‘indoor outdoor’ room with luxury Hot Tub, opening up onto a patio with BBQ and table and chairs for al fresco dining.
There is ample off-road parking.
Gipping Barn is one of our holiday cottage Barns in the secluded meadow beside The Granary, Woodfarm House and Meadow View Cottage. If you are looking for a holiday cottage in Suffolk with a hot tub then look no further.
The Barns nestle seamlessly into mature trees, with a Koi and Goldfish pond, and a waterfall feature to create a peaceful, intimate environment to relax and unwind in. As well as your own private, fully enclosed garden, there are landscaped grounds and a decked area overlooking the fish pond, which is a great spot to enjoy the sunset.
All our barns are unique in their luxury decor and we have a choice of ground-floor and mezzanine (like this one) or first-floor options. They are all traditional Suffolk barns in style with black weatherboarding, oak trusses and beams and floorboards or slate flooring. Woodfarm House and Meadow View Cottage are the two halves of our 500-year-old thatched Suffolk farmhouse. Again, both are completely private.
The Meadow is down a pretty country lane just outside the little Suffolk village of Stonham Aspal.
There are wonderful walks and cycling straight from the Barns and the pretty Suffolk Coast is just 30 minutes away. Bikes are also available free of charge, along with free WIFI.
All our meadow barns are named after nearby Suffolk rivers. The river Gipping winds its way through nearby Needham Market and Stowmarket and there’s a beautiful walk, which we have details of.

More reasons to stay at Gipping Barn
Gipping Barn is a beautiful Barn that sleeps two, with a mezzanine bedroom, oak décor throughout, and is navigated via handmade wooden stairs. Within its fully enclosed garden, you will find the ‘indoor-outdoor’ room which houses a large and modern hot tub. Perfect for relaxing and spending time in, no matter what the weather looks like, we would highly recommend Gipping Barn for anyone on the lookout for lodges with hot tubs. What’s more, Gipping Barn has Suffolk written over it – from its name to the interior and exterior styling of the Barn.
Fun Fact – Hot tubs aren’t new. Many centuries ago, hot tubs were created by using hot stones to raise the temperature of tubs to bring them to an ideal temperature for people to relax in. Of course, the ones you’ll find in our Barns for rent are a little more advanced than these, with all of their advanced controls and modern lighting!
