Book a couples break with a difference and choose the beautiful Suffolk countryside as your staycation destination, bringing along your beloved hound to join in your adventures. You’ll be located just 5 miles from Stowmarket with its exciting Museum of East Anglian Life, thriving antique scene and a bustling marketplace. Utterly secluded with impressive vistas of the surrounding countryside, your cosy abode has plenty of choices when it comes to walkies. Let Rover take the lead and discover the winding rural trails nearby, bringing along a picnic hamper stuffed with goodies.
Sleek and sophisticated with an overarching contemporary decor, this impressive former barn is a great base for relaxing with your waggy-tailed companion. Rustle up hearty meals in the stylish kitchen/diner for romantic evenings in. Sunlight streams in through the floor-to-ceiling bi-fold doors in the lounge, and upstairs you’ll discover another snug seating area ideal for snoozing. Step outside for an al fresco breakfast whilst your curious pup sniffs scent trails through the dew, and on sunny evenings the BBQ is a treat for sizzling up something tasty.
Step back in time with a visit to the museum that’s studded amongst 75 acres of woodland, riverside trails and farmland. The streets of Stowmarket are humming with activity, so why not pause to watch street performers, catch a show at the theatre and pick up some souvenirs from national and independent shops? Bury St Edmunds also offers retail therapy in abundance 20 miles away, as does Ipswich 15.5 miles away. For those who can’t resist the lure of the sea, the Suffolk Heritage Coast is well worth the 30-mile drive simply to enjoy the shingle-strewn beach and pretty Nature Reserve at Orford.
