This is a fabulous place for a family holiday. The accommodation is versatile and met all our needs across three generations. The layout of the Barn is great allowing everyone space. The position of the games room meant that the younger generation could play pool, while watching a film and be part of the rest of the group. The kitchen is well equipped and lends itself for a great party space. The swimming pool was a hit with all generations, it was larger than expected and well equipped with water games. There are plenty of walks around local footpaths which our two four legged friends enjoyed and the humans loved the local pub they came across for a well earned pit stop. The owners are super friendly and helpful. In short, as a family, we 100% recommend this property to you . ##### Gayner Lodge This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Byrne Nov 4, 2020 #### A fantastic property with great facilities.

A wonderful cottage. The obvious selling point is the massive swimming pool which provided hours of entertainment for the kids, but the whole place is spacious, clean and well appointed, including the expansive and lovely grounds. The only gripe - per other reviews - is that the wifi doesn't work. Fortunately the 4G connection is good so it is possible to stay connected, but your mobile data takes a hammering. Of course, for most people the big selling point of the barn is to get away from it all, so arguably not being connected is no bad thing!

The pictures really don’t do this house justice, it is much larger than we expected. The pool is also much bigger, I think a 25m length with depth ranging from 3ft to 7ft, so ideal for kids and serious swimmers. The layout is excellent, perfect for a family celebration. Each room having its own en suite is a great bonus, and the pool table is really good. We were a bit concerned about the pool, but it doesn’t fill the house with any smell of chlorine or pool chemicals. The BBQ is fairly large charcoal burning, worked well, there is a useful additional fridge freezer in a small shed in the courtyard - beer fridge....finally the grounds, this house has loads of space around it, wish we had brought the golf clubs....the only issue unfortunately was the number of flies. I understand it’s in farmland but there were lots and lots.. fantastic break though and perfect weekend.

Burfields Barn is in a wonderful peaceful location. The Barn is beautiful and very comfortable. The pool is amazing and we used it every day. The owners are nearby if you need them but leave you to enjoy your holiday. This is a great celebration house and whilst we were there we celebrated a 60th birthday. We were a multi-generational family group with ages from 1 to 81 and the Barn proved to be a very safe and clean environment during the ongoing covid 19 situation. We hope to return again to this beautiful Suffolk retreat.

Lovely and clean, well equipped with everything we needed and we easily arranged shopping delivery to arrive not long after we did. There was 10 adults and a child in our party, plenty of room and seating for everyone. Rooms were really well presented with plenty of space and comfortable beds, with everyone having en-suite it could not be more ideal for a large party. Pool was a great size and plenty of towels supplied. Would definitely return very welcoming hosts on site in their farm house a short distance away if we needed them but totally left us to our own devices once they handed over to us which made it really private and relaxed. Highly recommend do not hesitate,pictures do not do it justice. ##### Laura This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sonia Jul 27, 2019 #### P Perfect xxx ##### Sonia This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tommy Jul 8, 2019 #### An incredible place!
