Manor Farm Properties, Thorndon, Eye, Suffolk

Nestled in the picturesque village of Thorndon, just a stone's throw away from the charming market town of Eye in Suffolk, Manor Farm Properties offers exceptional self-catering accommodations. With two beautifully converted properties, we provide a serene haven for your countryside escape, and they can be rented together to comfortably accommodate up to 12 guests.

**Manor Barn Farm:** 

This self-catering barn exudes style and offers captivating views of the Suffolk countryside. Notably, it has played a starring role as the backdrop for a TV Christmas special by The Hairy Bikers. The open-plan living area is a spectacular space, boasting vast windows, an inviting inglenook fireplace, rustic flagstone floors, plush sofas, cosy corners, lofty ceilings, and a walkway that ensures a spacious and uncluttered ambience. A large wooden dining table and French windows that lead to the garden make it the perfect spot for communal meals. Overlooking the fields, the generous kitchen is equipped with all the essentials, including ample glassware for enjoying the local Suffolk wines and a fridge to keep them perfectly chilled.

The five bedrooms are adorned with lovely cream walls, exposed beams, and carpeted floors, all exuding a charming country style. Among them, two are doubles and three are twins. The property also offers two classic white bathrooms and an additional shower room. Your comfort is our priority, and we provide amenities such as barbecue facilities, high chairs, a laundry room, and a convenient downstairs restroom. Our extensive garden is neatly manicured and features a trampoline, wooden tables, chairs, and even a hot tub for your relaxation and enjoyment.

**The Granary:**

For those seeking a romantic getaway, The Granary is the perfect choice. This single-story cottage retains its original beamed ceilings while offering modern comfort and convenience throughout. The open-plan living and kitchen area is thoughtfully equipped to meet your needs, with a cooker, fridge/freezer, kettle, toaster, microwave, and a cosy seating area with a wood burner.

The spacious bedroom boasts a super-king size bed that can be configured as twins, and en suite facilities include a shower room and WC. Outside, an enclosed garden with patio furniture and a barbecue beckons, providing the ideal setting for al fresco dining under the Suffolk sun.

**Exploring Thorndon and Suffolk:**

Thorndon is surrounded by a network of footpaths, inviting you to embark on pleasant walks amidst the natural beauty of the area. The village church offers a glimpse into the region's history and heritage.

Cycling enthusiasts will find the quiet country lanes perfect for exploration, while Thornham Country Park, a short drive away, is a haven for wildlife lovers, offering a chance to observe abundant creatures in their natural habitat.

Nearby Framlingham, with its turreted castle, is a peaceful village that has become a hub for East Anglia's thriving wine industry. Several local vineyards welcome visitors for tours and tastings, allowing you to savour the local wine culture.

For those intrigued by archaeology, Sutton Hoo is a captivating day-trip destination. Managed by the National Trust, this Anglo-Saxon burial site once held the priceless treasures of Raedwald, King of East Anglia, within a monumental ship grave.

A short distance away, Bressingham Steam Museum and Gardens promise a delightful day of exploration. Within 25 miles, you can explore historic towns such as Bury St Edmunds and Norwich, or unwind along the scenic Suffolk/Norfolk coast. Additionally, the nearby town of Eye offers an array of boutique shops and grocery stores for your convenience.

In every way, Manor Farm Properties invites you to immerse yourself in the rich tapestry of Suffolk's countryside and heritage.
