You Ask, We Answer videos: FAQs

Do you only do one-week stays?

No, far from it. This is what we do:

• Weekends – Friday for a two or three night weekend.
• Midweeks – Sunday to Friday, or Monday to Friday.
• You can also come Monday to Sunday for six nights, or a full week arriving and leaving on a Friday, Sunday or Monday.

Provided that you arrive and leave on any of those days, you can stretch your stay out to suit yourself. We can occasionally do a one night stay on a Sunday, if we have availability. For anything else, just ask as we may be able to accommodate you in the quieter periods.

Is Woodfarm Dog Friendly? Can I bring my dog with me on holiday?

We welcome up to three dogs in each cottage. We are known for this and have won awards for it, as well as gaining some great press.

Are bedding and towels provided?

Yes, bedding and towels are provided. All of very high quality.

Do you have a strict cleaning regime to allow for being dog friendly?

Yes. Very much so. We use a number of pet-specific products and equipment. Our housekeepers are aware of when we have had dogs in and ensure that no signs remain. The owner of the business is allergic to dogs so we have always had very high standards. Again, we have won awards for this.

Do you discriminate against certain dog breeds?

Just XL Bullies. There’s a clue in the name and they are a banned species. Other than that, for very obvious reasons, we ask that guests keep aggressive dogs very much under control and away from other dogs. We have fully enclosed, private gardens and ask that outside of these, that dogs are kept on leads. You may have a very friendly dog but not everyone wants a dog bounding over to them. More importantly, nervous dogs certainly don’t want it.

Where can my dogs exercise?

We have an awesome, fully enclosed 2-acre meadow for dogs to run around and socialise!

Do you accept cats?

No, sorry. We did it twice and twice we had sofas plucked, which we didn’t charge for. So no cats.

What’s included in my Woodfarm stay?

We have a huge comprehensive list but just to give you a few of the most frequently asked ones, we provide a delicious local breakfast basket to get you off to a great start on your first morning! We also supply all your tea, coffee, sugar, linen, bedding & towels, luxury hand soap & shower gel etc.

What is included in the kitchens?

Everything you need, hopefully. We’ve worked hard to make sure our kitchens are fully stocked.

Do you do group bookings?

Yes we do but you would need to book all of our cottages. This is to avoid other guests finding themselves in the middle of someone else’s party.

If we have friends staying can we use their hot tub?

No. We do insist that the Hot Tub is purely for use by guests staying in that barn in order to avoid unwanted noise levels, disturbing other guests.

Are the hot tubs private?

Yes. If you book a barn with a hot tub it is yours and is not overlooked. We do insist that the Hot Tub is purely for use by guests staying in that barn in order to avoid unwanted noise levels, disturbing other guests.

Do you have Wood-burners?

Yes we do. In all our Barns and aboard our large Barge ‘Onderneming’. Woodfarm House has an open fire. Twee Gebroeders doesn’t have one but it has a lovely range cooker, which kicks out a good heat.

Do the Cottages and Barges have heating?

Yes, they do. All our Barns have underfloor heating. Woodfarm House and both Barges have full domestic central heating systems with radiators throughout.

Do you have any extras to make our stay even more special?

Yes, we do. We can offer Champers, Handmade Suffolk Chocolates, Deli Hampers, Flowers etc.

Do you decorate for Christmas?

Yes, we do. We put a decorated and lit tree up, as well as some other decorations too.

Are there any hidden charges?

Nope. We charge for logs as clearly stated. There is a cleaning charge of £25 clearly stated in our T’s & C’s if you leave the Cottage or Barge disrespectfully dirty but we’ve only had to enforce this a couple of times.

Do I pay in full when I book?

We take a £100 deposit per cottage at the time of booking, with the balance payable in full a month before you arrive.

How can I choose which Cottage or Barge suits me?

They each have their own page, with a full description, reviews and videos. PLUS there is a Google Virtual Tour for each as well.

Do you have bicycles for hire?

We do but they are free, so not for hire as such. We have a motley collection so don’t expect to enter the Tour De Suffolk on one.

Can I read any reviews?

You can read thousands on our websites from previous guests and we have hundreds of Five Star reviews on Tripadvisor, Facebook and Google.

Does Woodfarm have a social media presence?

Heck yeah! We even have a blog post and video on our social media presence that you can watch.

Does Woodfarm like Donald Trump?

No. No, we do not. He is a putrid orange creature with only his own interests at heart.

Does Woodfarm endorse crunchy peanut butter or smooth?

Crunchy. All the way!

Do I need to stop writing this page now?

Yes. I need a lie-down.
