You’ve heard what we have to say about the 10 best reasons to take a holiday at one of our Barns for rent in Suffolk – if you haven’t, here’s a link – but what of our Barges for rent in Suffolk? What about our Barges moored in some of the most tranquil of Suffolk waterways that makes them such a special place to getaway to?

1. Our Barges Offer a Truly Unique Experience

A stay at one of our Barns offers something completely different from traditional accommodation. Instead of a hotel or cottage, you’ll be sleeping on the water, gently rocked by the current, with stunning views all around you. Yes, it really is as great as we’ve made it sound.

2. Our Barges Look Out on Breathtaking Riverside Scenery

Suffolk is home to some of the most picturesque waterways in the UK and our Barges allow you to enjoy the very best of them from the most comfortable interior. 

3. Our Barges Are Optimised For Relaxation

There’s nothing quite like waking up to the sound of water lapping against the hull or enjoying a morning coffee on deck as the sun rises. A barge stay offers a slower pace of life, perfect for unwinding. We take this all very seriously and have ensured that our guests on board have access to everything they need to do it properly.

4. Our Barges Are Great for Wildlife Spotting

Suffolk’s rivers and estuaries are rich in wildlife. From the deck of our Barges for rent in Suffolk, you stand a good chance of spotting herons, kingfishers, otters, and even seals. If you’re a nature lover, a stay on one of our Barges offers a front-row seat to some truly incredible sights.

5. Our Barges Are Close to Historic Maritime Towns

A Barge stay puts you close to Suffolk’s charming maritime towns and villages. Visit Woodbridge with its famous Tide Mill, explore the historic waterfront at Ipswich, or enjoy the artistic charm of Aldeburgh. The choices are more than plentiful.

6. Our Barges Are Ideal for Couples

When it comes to planning a romantic escape, a Barge stay provides you with all of the spacious interiors, kitchens and cosy living areas which set the scene for the most memorable getaways.

7. Our Barges Make Outdoor Activities a Breeze

Being on the water means easy access to outdoor adventures. Kayaking, paddleboarding, and fishing are all popular activities in Suffolk’s rivers, giving you a fun and active way to explore the area during your holiday.

8. Our Barges Are Totally Dog-Friendly

Our Barges for rent in Suffolk welcome dogs, so your furry friend can join in on your maritime adventure. With riverside walks and pet-friendly pubs nearby, it’s a great option for dog owners. We may well have mentioned this point a few times before…

9. Our Barges Combine Comfort and Adventure

While our Barges offer a cosy, home-like atmosphere, they also provide a sense of adventure thanks to their unique set up.

10. Our Barges Create Memories That Last a Lifetime (we have it on good authority!)

Our Barges for rent provide more than just accommodation – they provide an unforgettable experience. From enjoying dinner under the stars on deck to drifting along Suffolk’s waterways, we’re confident that you’ll enjoy a holiday you’ll never forget.
