SAXMUNDHAM
Saxmundham is a small market town with good rail links, making it an excellent base from which to explore the surrounding area. Take a walk along the town trail to explore its historic buildings before stepping into The Bell at Sax’, a Grade II listed building with a charming bar, often full of locals.
Don’t miss: The Art Station, a creative space in what was the Post Office. Filling up with homegrown organic veg, produce and free-range eggs from Maple Farm Shop. Being tempted by a purchase in lifestyle store, East of Eden and The George
Farnham Gallery.
MOLLETT’S FARM
This idyllic countryside farm located between the villages of Farnham and Benhall in Suffolk, offers luxurious self-catering holiday accommodation in seven cottages and studios, and is a Certificated Location for caravans and motorhomes as well as a pop-up campsite over the summer months.
Husband and wife team, Richard and Sasha Ayres, purchased the 17th-century farmhouse in 2005 and then converted the redundant agricultural buildings into six fully-serviced holiday studios and cottages, as well as apportioning part of the original farmhouse for guests. It is situated alongside the Suffolk Coast and Heaths Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and is surrounded by 39 acres of arable farmland which is home to a wide range of wildlife. Careful consideration and thought have been put into ensuring that the accommodation is accessible to all, with particular attention paid to the needs of visitors with disabilities as the accommodation incorporates universal access features. The fantastic location makes Mollett’s an ideal base for exploring the Suffolk Heritage Coast, with easy access to the local farm shop which is a five minute walk across the field. The accommodation has been finished to a very high standard with everything you would need for an enjoyable stay, and each comes with a generous living area, beautifully furnished bedrooms and a fully equipped kitchen. Some have private patios where you can enjoy the sunset or a spot of star-gazing while others offer the option of unwinding in the south-facing rose-garden courtyard while the children feed the chickens. It is the perfect destination for couples, families or large groups who may want to book for their exclusive use – and don’t forget they are dog-friendly too.
