Half term break
Stayed with my wife and two kids and we loved every minute. Location was amazing, we don't mind being out in the sticks, and house was beautiful. The pool was one of the main reasons we booked and we used it every day We'd definitely stay again Thanks
Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2022

Beautiful farm house in a magical setting both hosts Susan and Jack really lovely and helpful people
Beautiful farm house in a magical setting both hosts Susan and Jack really lovely and helpful people! Had an amazing weekend away, so much character in the property beautifully done up and really comfy and cosy beds. The area is magical if you enjoy long walks and bike rides absolutely amazing for a leisure long bike rides! Only a half an hour away from beautiful sea side too. The pool was brilliant seize to have plenty of great fun the only little improvement we'd recommend is to turn up the heating on the pool a little apart from that brilliant stay!

Stunning 1420s farmhouse full of character.
Stunning 1420s farmhouse full of character. Lovely welcome from owners. Sits at the back of working pig farm, surrounded by walks. Low local amenities score only because its in the middle of rural Suffolk so not a negative, just a reality. Swimming pool huge and wonderful. Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo

A lovely old farmhouse, comfortable and well equipped.
A lovely old farmhouse, comfortable and well equipped. The perfect place for a family of all ages. The kids were in the pool for up to six hours a day, mainly because when we were there the temperatures were up in the 30's. The menfolk were all into fishing so were relishing their time at the fishing lakes. A very relaxing time for all. Only downside was, because of the heat sleeping was difficult and portable fans in each bedroom would have been welcome, or more mesh on some of the windows to allow air through and not the flies etc. A tip for taller people, beware the low door frames or take a hard hat! However we would certainly go back again. Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo

Old Hall Farm House is a great escape - deep in the country.
Old Hall Farm House is a great escape - deep in the country. We loved the garden and the huge pool and bbqs on the terrace and spent lots of time just enjoying some space. The kids loved meeting the farm dogs and feeding the carp in the pond and watching the rabbits on the lawn. The house is a lovely ancient farmhouse with beams and uneven floors upstairs. If I could change one thing - it would be to have access to the garden from the kitchen. Great house and we will hopefully be back. Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo
