Mr Smith
We had everything we needed for a good holiday. The lodge was ideal for two and situated in a rural setting. It's very dark when you turn the lights out! Debbie and Craig made us feel very welcome and were on hand if needed, offering good local advice. We enjoyed our stay in south Suffolk.

Mr Palmer
Overall a very good property, excelent location, very peaceful and quite. A great place to 'get away from it all'. The accomadation was very well equiped. Everything one needed was there. Cleaniness was of a high standard. Parking space off road and close to property. Would consider a return visit when next visiting the area. Owners on site in near by house, very friendly, but not intrusive at all.
