We’ve Struck Gold for Quality! Woodfarm awarded Tourism Gold

By

Yes, that’s right, we have just received the Quality in Tourism Gold Award for Visit England!

We are over the moon to have been awarded this for “Exceptional Quality of Accommodation and Customer Service”.

Since I first thought about setting up Woodfarm, this is what I was aiming for so this means such a lot. To be awarded it for all seven of our cottages here is fantastic!

Quality in Tourism Gold Award for Alde Barn, one of our luxury holiday cottages in Suffolk Quality in Tourism Gold Award for Deben Barn, one of our luxury holiday cottages in Suffolk Quality in Tourism Gold Award for Gipping Barn, one of our luxury holiday cottages in Suffolk Quality in Tourism Gold Award for The Granary Barn, one of our luxury holiday cottages in Suffolk Quality in Tourism Gold Award for Orwell Barn, one of our luxury holiday cottages in Suffolk Quality in Tourism Gold Award for Stour Barn, one of our luxury holiday cottages in Suffolk Quality in Tourism Gold Award for Woodfarm House, one of our luxury holiday cottages in Suffolk

It was a very comprehensive process but well worth it and very satisfying. To have our guests continually tell us how lovely it is here and to keep coming back and referring us to their family and friends is a great feeling and this is the icing on the cake.

We are also chuffed to bits that we have achieved the requirements for Quality in Tourism’s four ‘Welcome Schemes’ – Pets, Walkers, Cyclists and Families.

 

Pets Welcome at our luxury holiday cottages in Suffolk Walkers Welcome at our luxury holiday cottages in Suffolk

Cyclists Welcome at our luxury holiday cottages in Suffolk Families Welcome at our luxury holiday cottages in Suffolk

Then on top of all this we’ve also been awarded Trip Advisor’s Certificate of Excellence for consistently excellent reviews!
