The property
Light streams into the double-height living space which incorporates a comfortable seating area, dining area and open plan kitchen with additional chairs perched on a gallery above - wonderful for a family celebration*! As you can see from the floor plan, bedrooms are spread out to give you a degree of privacy with two twins and a double off the first floor landing with modern shower room; a totally separate wonderful master suite with chic bathroom and its own staircase and, on the ground floor, two twin rooms and a single with big modern bathroom.
The location of Quill Farm Barn is exceptional; surrounded by private land with views over a lake where ducks and Greylag geese live in the summer months, yet close to popular tourist destinations such as Aldeburgh, Orford and Snape. Guests have a choice of outdoor spaces – a raised terrace with table and chairs making it ideal for eating in the fresh air; another furnished seating area tucked at the side of the house and a third with shelter close to the tennis court for mid-match snacks. The private drive leads to a huge parking area with ample space for six/seven cars and manicured lawns wrap around the house, surrounded by well-established shrubs, hedges and magnificent old trees.
