Swallows Nest

Swallows Nest is an 18th-century barn conversion in East Suffolk, positioned to explore the region's market towns, nature reserves and coast. Within half an hour's drive are Southwold, Walberswick, RSPB reserves, fishing lakes and Norwich; Bungay lies three miles away with shops and services. A pub is half a mile off, and St. Peter's Hall brewery nearby offers tours and food. The property suits those who want a base for walking and exploring rather than a retreat from activity.

The barn holds two double bedrooms, each with an ensuite shower room, sleeping four. Downstairs, a living room with Freeview TV and DVD player opens through French doors to an enclosed garden with patio and furniture. A conservatory also leads outside. The kitchen and dining area are equipped for cooking—electric oven, induction hob, microwave, dishwasher and washer dryer included. Oil heating, electricity, Wi-Fi, bed linen and towels are provided. There is private parking for two cars and a balcony with garden furniture. The property is entire to yourselves, and one well-behaved dog is welcome. No smoking indoors. Note that the property has open, steep spiral stairs.
