Guests say
Utopia is consistently praised for its tranquillity, privacy, and attention to detail. Guests are delighted by the luxurious and well-appointed Shepherd's Hut, the beautiful garden, and the thoughtful touches such as welcome treats. The property offers a peaceful escape with comfortable furnishings and is well-located for exploring the surrounding area. The hosts are commended for their friendliness and respect for guest privacy.
Reviewers consistently mention the cleanliness of the accommodation, describing it as immaculate and well-maintained, indicating a high standard of cleanliness throughout the property.
The location is highly regarded for its peacefulness and proximity to local attractions. One suggestion for a sign at the main road indicates excellent seclusion, but a slight need for easier navigation.
Guests rave about the comfort provided by Utopia, highlighting the big comfy bed, the relaxing garden, and the overall peaceful atmosphere that contributes to a comfortable stay.
The facilities are frequently praised for their thoughtfulness and luxury, including a well-equipped kitchen and a wood burner. The only minor omission is a lack of mention of maintenance issues, hence the slightly less than perfect score.
The hosts' thoughtfulness is evident in the personalised welcome card and welcome pack. While such treats are greatly appreciated by guests, it should be noted that these special touches, although likely, are not guaranteed for every stay.
About this property
This beautifully crafted luxurious Shepherds Hut is positioned in complete privacy within a secluded setting, with the birds singing around you. You'll be sure to be amazed as you walk into the grounds with a large grassed area with topiary balls, water feature and areas to sit and enjoy the Suffolk sunshine.
The location is ideal for walkers or cyclists looking to enjoy the Suffolk Countryside and coastal positions. There is a footpath located directly from the property.
Wooden steps lead up into the spacious shepherds hut accommodating two guests, with living/dining/bedroom area, and a separate shower room. No expense has been spared with this luxurious holiday home, with beautiful oak flooring throughout, Quartz kitchen worktops, antique furnishings and Emma Bridgewater tablewear. The landscape surrounding the hut is delightful, and you can enjoy this by dining alfresco and making use of the BBQ. Metfield is a small village within Suffolk, located just a few miles from the Norfolk border. It is a perfect location that visitors get the best of both worlds: rolling countryside ready to be explored with hikes, walks and cycle rides aplenty and within a few miles, the breath-takingly beautiful coastline of the East Suffolk Heritage Coast. Towns on the coast worth visiting include Southwold and Aldeburgh. Check out market towns such as Diss, Halesworth and Woodbridge with attractions worth visiting including Framlingham Castle, Yoxford Antiques Centre and Gardens, Sutton Hoo, Somerleyton Hall and RSPB Minsmere. For a holiday packed full of happy memories, make sure you book a stay at Utopia.

Enjoy antique auctions, country walks from your doorstep, angling and birdwatching. Endless day trips include the Aviation & Steam Train Museums, Castles, Cathedrals, Breweries, Vineyards, the famous Norfolk Broads, and the Sandringham Estate. Nearby Bungay boasts many historic attractions, the ruins of Bigod's Castle, Buttercross, a Spring Garden market, a Summer antiques fair and Christmas Market, attracting many people each year.

This lovely, clean shepherdâs hut is packed with all the facilities for a luxury stay⦠a big comfy bed, sofa, fridge, oven, hob, shower, fluffy towels⦠but for my husband and I, the best part was being able to have the double doors open onto the private garden and drink coffee in the countryside! Utopia proved to be the perfect escape from the stresses of everyday life. I hope next time we come, itâll be cold enough to use the wood burning stove!
