Sustainable Property
Sustonica, the first global sustainability standard for holiday lets.
Our aim is to create lasting holiday memories and we intend to do so both responsibly and sustainably.
To deliver on this we've set out a number of environmental and social pledges which help to focus our efforts;
you can read more about them in our Impact Report.
This is why we've partnered with Sustonica, the first global certification for holiday lets,
to support our owners to be more sustainable.
The Sustonica certification focuses on four key areas: energy conservation, water conservation,
waste reduction and promoting inclusiveness. They are on a mission to become the most widely
recognised sustainability standard for holiday rentals and a catalyst to reduce emissions of holiday
lets and influence guests to reduce their own household consumption too.
Properties that display the Sustonica badge have successfully passed the criteria,
which align with the UN Sustainable Development Goals and the Global Sustainable Tourism Council standards,
and their owner has made a commitment to look after our planet as well as you.
Stunning location , amazing standard of facilities from the fully equipped kitchen , living area with full Sky TV , stunning bedrooms , hot tub , garden , BBQ’s , eating area with massive table for all of us to be together and also brilliant WiFi ! They have thought of every this property and credit to the owners.

"I e mailed and phoned on numerous occasions to see if the barn would be decorated for Christmas, and was informed yes but to get to the barn and find decorations was a 2 foot twig very sad after paying a lot of money to stay there."
Also the BBQ was not fit to use
Sorry you were disappointed about the lack of decorations, we were not actually told by our agents that we were expected to decorate the house for Christmas. As for the BBQ’s and there were two, I checked them a week before you arrived and I do admit we had one weekend of guests prior to your arrival and both BBQ’s were fine when I inspected them. Hopefully it didn’t detract from you having a nice time.

"We had a problem with the hot water on the Sunday morning, we didn’t have any, we contacted the emergency contact number only to be told there was not anyone possibly coming out until the Monday."
Your welcome book says that there is constant hot water. Maybe there should be a note in there to advise guests on where the time clock is and how to work it as we didn’t have any of this information.
This therefore had an impact on our stay which is rare family time. Apart from this we were delighted with the property. What a shame.

"A once in a lifetime opportunity to stay in an amazing property with friends."
So much space for everyone.
Beds were so comfortable, quilts and pillows were brilliant. Showers were excellent. Games were loved by everyone.
Being able to do the washing meant we didn't have to pack loads and loads of clothes which was a bonus!
Outdoor space was fabulous and it was just so peaceful being able to sit outside with a cuppa and listen to the birds.
Everyone that stays here is going to love it

"A very tastefully restored Grade 11 listed barn ."
Everything was of very high quality ,with lots of quirky things too which was fun.
This was the first few days of our summer weather so the 13 tog duvets proved a little challenging !
We could have done with some small water glasses, otherwise the kitchen was very well equipped.
I sensed the owners loved this place as much as we did !
Thank you for making it available .
Now we just need to think of an excuse to return !

Toaster is other side of kitchen to cutlery (and could do with being 4 slice). Frying pans and lasagne dish not big enough for family of eight. Cooker hob was quite difficult to get hang of but got there in the end. Otherwise perfect x

"What a wonderful place to stay, the house and all amenities are first class, truly felt like home from home."
Lovely large enclosed field for the dog to roam in was a bonus that I hadn't realised was there when booking. Also nice dog friendly walks direct from the door.
The Jungle Rooms café in the village is worth a visit for breakfast and lunch. My only negative comment is the hot tub got a little cold when in use, real first world problems! Hopefully we will return.

"A beautiful barn set in its own quiet grounds, so much space inside but still giving a cosy feeling."
Everyone was catered for, games, comfort and relaxation in the hot tub, leaflets were available which led us on walks and days out. The dogs had a wonderful time with their own field to walk in and the fenced off area for a quick sniff. The location was perfect for touring beautiful Norfolk, Suffolk and surrounding areas. Recommend a visit to Felixstowe, which has a beautiful promenade to walk along which is immaculate. A book has been put together showing the history of the barn which I found very interesting. Loved our 7 night stay and the only downside was having to leave.

"We had a wonderful stay at Halcyon Barn."
The facilities including the hot tub, games, books etc we're fantastic and the barn was furnished and equipped to a very high standard. We didn't miss a thing in the kitchen, the beds were supremely comfortable and the bedroom configuration was great. We were a 3 generational group of 7 plus a baby and we all loved it.
The barn was not quite as clean as we would have liked, mostly dust, cobwebs etc as well as some old biscuits left in the jar. A minor niggle for what was otherwise a superb week.

"We spent a lovely few days at this beautiful barn conversion which was well equipped, very comfortable and beautifully furnished."
The White Company bed linen and towels earned a big thumbs up from me! The peaceful location was ideal, being away from the hustle and bustle of Southwold yet within a short drive. The market town of Halesworth is only five minutes away. The local pub serving delicious food is only a short walk away.

"The attention to detail at Halcyon Barn is second-to-none: a stunning conversion with an impressive vaulted interior, decor which is as comfortable as it is luxurious, plenty of sofas to lounge on, a lovely dining space, beds you'll never want to get out of, and thoughtfully stocked bathrooms."
Everything you could want from a kitchen, and the bonus of a games-room which is ideal for families and also groups of competetive friends. There is ample parking, and the outside entertainment spaces make the most of the sun at different times of the day, amidst the surrounding outlook which is serene and peaceful. There is also a cracking pub at the end of the lane; and beyond that there is so much of Suffolk to explore within easy reach of the doorstep. I really enjoyed my stay.

"Theres plenty of space for hosting and we enjoyed the many family board games provided and watching films on the large flat screen TV."
The four spacious bedrooms, three with en-suites and family bathroom are extremely comfortable and great for separate families occupying the space. The games area is an added bonus complete with pool table/table tennis, which is great fun! The lovely outside area is quiet and peaceful, complete with hot tub and great BBQ and we enjoyed the views and lovely sunsets most evenings. It was definitely a happy place for us!
