    The Barn was lovely and stylish and had so many comforts. The outlook to the wild garden each day was just magical with the wildlife and birdsong. The owner was so helpful and kind. Perfect.

  • "Had a lovely stay at Chobbs Barn and were able to explore Suffolk for the first time."

    Property was decorated to a high standard and had everything we needed to make our stay very comfortable. The description said there was a washing machine but there wasn't, which was disappointing and the kitchen tap still needs descaling as it sprays everywhere, but otherwise it was a great stay. Have to mention the wildlife right outside the window. Never been so close to deer, pheasants and even a weasel. Really enjoyed watching them all.

  • "This is a wonderful property to stay in and would very highly recommend it."

    It's in a great location for exploring Suffolk and is so peaceful too. It has every facility you could need and has the most comfortable bed we've ever slept in! The host is such a lovely, friendly lady who was there to greet us when we arrived. We had a fabulous time here.

  • "Lovely barn conversion, comfortable, well equipped and in a very peaceful location."

    Great wild garden with lots of visiting wildlife to enjoy, birds, squirrels, rabbits etc. Our host. Aly, was very welcoming and left a very thoughtful welcome gift which we enjoyed! Great location for visiting Suffolk and Norfolk, we ran out of time to see all we would have liked to have seen so will return again next year. Would definitely recommend this property

  • "Everything was really lovely."

    Beautiful barn conversion with great facilities inside. My only gripe is the kitchen tap being slightly unruly with its flow due to limescale build up so It sprayed out of the sink. Not really a complaint considering there is a good quality dish washer. Lovely garden with cute wildlife visits from a variety of birds and rabbits. I would 100% go again and recommend. Very clean and cosy.

  • "Had a relaxing break from the city, perfect location with wonderful wide glass doors looking onto nothing but nature."

    Well placed for forays into Cambridge, Bury St Edmunds & the Norfolk countryside. Lovely long walk along country lane situated right outside the property to a local country pub. A great break
