Description from owner
Description
Enjoy a relaxing retreat at one of the UK’s most unique and luxurious self-catering holiday accommodations. Enjoy a sublime stay in the most scenic of settings in this astounding adults-only boutique bolthole.
Whether you are looking for a romantic hide away, or for fun filled time off with friends there really is no place like The Windmill Suffolk.
Located just 2 miles from Historic Lavenham, within easy reach of what Suffolk and the picturesque surrounding counties of Norfolk, Essex and Cambridgeshire have to offer.
Originally built in 1891 the recently converted Windmill is the perfect contemporary country hideaway. With stunning panoramic views across the rolling Suffolk countryside, you can enjoy these from both the private balcony or the comfy warmth of the ‘POD’ top floor living space.
The Windmill Suffolk is an adults only holiday let and due to the layout with its sweeping staircase unfortunately The Windmill is not suitable for those with limited mobility. It is a non-smoking property throughout and not suitable for pets.
