10 Bed Cottage in Wattisham

About this property

Located within the grounds of Wattisham Hall, and surrounded by a medieval moat, sit these three stylish barn conversions. Sleeping a total of 21 people, it’s the ideal place for a family celebration or reunion of friends with plenty of outdoor activity, tranquillity, and easy access to excellent restaurants.

Light tones, wooden beams, swathes of natural light, and pleasant decor make each property a warm and inviting place. Owls End, Tithe Barn, and Willow Cottage vary in size but each one boasts an open-plan living area with homely lounges that offer plenty of space so everyone can kick back and relax in comfort. Good-sized kitchens also overlook the living areas so the chef in the group can be part of the conversation while preparing delicious meals while sociable dining tables invite you to linger over dinner. When it comes to bedtime, the barns feature a mix of bedrooms with Owls End sleeping 10 people, Tithe Barn sleeping 7 people, and Willow Cottage sleeping 4 people. All the bedrooms are light and airy with soothing tones and windows that offer up views of the surrounding countryside. Outside each cottage, there’s a patio area dotted with garden furniture, a hot tub, and a BBQ. Enjoy al fresco meals at your outdoor table or take a dip in the hot tub and watch as the stars light up the sky. Kids will also love whiling away the hours in the games room with its table football, pool table, and table tennis while younger ones can safely play on the swings and slide in the outdoor play park.

For nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts, Wattisham is a fantastic spot. Soak up the surrounding landscape with its hills and farmland or enjoy spotting wildlife in the moat. Children will also love the neighbouring alpaca farm where they can get up close to more than 50 alpacas and even take one for a morning stroll. Also worth a visit is Wattisham Airfield Museum (3 miles) with its selection of vintage aircraft and the medieval village of Lavenham (9.5 miles). Be sure to stroll through Lavenham Woodland, with its butterflies and birds, and afterwards stop for a meal at one of the excellent fine-dining restaurants.
