Description

*Now with its own hot tub*

One of just four stunning contemporary, eco lodges, decorated and designed to a high standard, we think you will find everything you need for a relaxing getaway at Upthorpe Lodges. For when you're eating in, the well-equipped kitchen will keep a creative cook happy, with dining area alongside. It will be no surprise that there's a fridge and a microwave, but there's also a full size freezer for your ice cream and more, plus a conventional oven for your Sunday roast. The stylish furniture has been carefully selected to provide comfort and relaxation, and on sunny days you'll want to roll back the doors and let the outside in. Sun loungers and outdoor dining table allow you to make the most of the daytime sun and the garden area is lit for evening use too.

All four lodges at Upthorpe Lodges include their own luxury hot tub, in their own private gardens.

Perfect for relaxation but with plenty of local attractions, this contemporary five-star (applied for) lodge, appears in a country garden setting amidst the Suffolk countryside, at the heart of East Anglia. Close to the villages of Stanton and Walsham-le-Willows our location is ideal for exploring the Norfolk and Suffolk countryside, its villages and market towns. The unspoilt coastline is within an hour's drive, and coastal towns such as Wells, Cromer, Southwold and Aldeburgh make pleasant tours. The historic cities and cultural centres of Cambridge and Norwich are an easy drive away.

Oak Lodge is in its own privately enclosed garden. We have three other lodges on this small exclusive setting, and group bookings can be made. Please contact owner for details.
