Location
Unfortunately we’ve been unable assess this category comprehensively enough based on the reviews we’ve received from guests about this property.
Comfort
The property is frequently described as comfortable, with plenty of space and comfortable furniture. However, one guest mentioned a creaky bed, which slightly impacts the score.
Facilities
Facilities are generally well-received, with the property being well-equipped. However, several guests mentioned the absence of a microwave and the lack of a welcome pack or local information, which suggests room for improvement.
Thoughtfulness
The owners' readiness to assist and the provision of logs for the wood burner demonstrate thoughtfulness. A Christmas tree and lights for festive guests were mentioned, but as gifts are not guaranteed, this should not be expected on every visit.
About this property
This charming annex is situated next to the owner’s home in the village of Athelington, amidst the scenery of High Suffolk. Affording an open-plan living space, character beams, a woodburning stove and off-road parking, Ivy House Barn welcomes couples looking to escape to Suffolk, with easy access to the Norfolk Broads, Coast and Heaths AONB. After a day of exploring, kick back in the sitting area and make yourself comfortable on the settee and armchairs, with an alluring woodburning stove to heat the space. Cross over to the kitchen and fix up a hearty meal before setting the dining table with crockery and cutlery. Spend some down time in the sunroom or take the evening outside to the patio space, complete with bistro table and chairs so you can enjoy alfresco dining. The bedroom features a double bed and contemporary en-suite shower room where you can freshen up before your adventures. Pick up your cupboard essentials from the neighbouring village of Horham, whilst Stradbroke is slightly further along but offers a pub, ideal for when you fancy a night away from cooking, whilst Framlingham and Eye offer a choice of takeaways. Ivy House Barn is within easy reach of the Suffolk coast, boasting a number of fantastic beaches for you to take advantage of, including Walberswick Beach, The Denes Beach in Southwold and Aldeburgh beach, offering watersporting and wild swimming opportunities. Both Aldeburgh and Southwold are villages that are well worth a visit with coastal walks, museums and local craft and produce shops, whilst the market town of Framlingham is worth a visit, boasting the Norman Framlingham Castle that was seen in Ed Sheeran’s music video for ‘Castle on the Hill’. Choose Ivy House Barn for a romantic retreat to Suffolk.
High Suffolk's thriving community of Stradbroke is home to two top-notch inns and a few small stores. The community is a short drive from the picturesque countryside of the Suffolk Coast National Natural Reserve as well as the historic market towns of Diss to the north and Framlingham to the south.
