SLEEPS 2 : Orwell Barn is a fantastic choice if you are after a bit of old-school charm with all the modern bits that actually matter. Guests frequently tell us they love the country views over the landscaped gardens towards the pond and the fields while you are lounging on the sofa. Its a Suffolk Barn with huge oak beams and a vaulted ceiling that makes the whole place feel airy but dead cosy at the same time. You have got a proper farmhouse kitchen downstairs for whipping up a bit of breakfast before heading out, and a wooden sleigh bed that guests say is like sleeping on a cloud.
Outside, the garden is fully enclosed so the dogs can potter about safely while you have a soak in your private, covered Hot Tub. Because it’s Woodfarm, your dogs stay for free and have that big two-acre meadow just across the lane to tire themselves out. It’s a great spot for a stress-free break where you can just shut the gate and enjoy the peace.

Orwell Barn sits in our secluded meadow next to The Granary, Woodfarm House, and Meadow View Cottage. Mature trees, a koi and goldfish pond, and a waterfall feature create a peaceful setting. There’s a shared decked area by the pond – perfect for sunsets.
We’re down a pretty country lane just outside the Suffolk village of Stonham Aspal; there are lovely walks and cycle routes straight from the Barns, and the Suffolk Coast is around 30 minutes away.
Orwell Barn is named after the River Orwell, running from Ipswich marina out towards the coast; it’s also where Eric Arthur Blair took the pen name George Orwell.
