The Details

The Nest is a peaceful romantic retreat nestled in the Suffolk countryside. This earth-sheltered house has a lovely exterior that blends nicely into the scenery, with a wildflower meadow on its roof and a whitewashed front with arched glass doors that open up onto a private pebbled courtyard.

When you step inside, you’ll love the cosy interiors and the gently curved ceiling. When the weather’s cool, underfloor heating keeps toes toasty and warm and on hot days you can open up the glass doors letting the fresh country air in. Step outside and get comfy on your sun loungers where you can unwind with a good book or enjoy a morning coffee in peace.

On rainy days, you can spend your time on the leather sofa in the lounge chatting the day away with your loved one or enjoying a movie on the Smart TV.

Whip up a feast in the nicely equipped kitchen, or get grilling on your firepit BBQ. There’s a quaint dining table for two inside, that’s perfect for romantic dinners, however, on sunny days, you’ll want to dine alfresco on your outdoor dining table whilst soaking in your surroundings and making the most of those stunning meadow views.

When the sun sets, sit around the firepit and toast marshmallows then head inside for a peaceful night’s sleep in the super-comfy king size bed. There’s a bathroom at The Nest too, with a shower and hairdryer, and extra comfort is added thanks to sustainably sourced Egyptian cotton linen and fluffy towels.

Nature lovers will adore this stay, where you can experience a deeper connection to the land and seasons. Wake to the sunrise over nearby woodlands, relax by an open fire as the evening birds begin their chorus or step outside at night to gaze up at a sky filled with stars.

During your stay at Wildlands (where The Nest is located) you can enjoy a number of activities that make your stay extra special. Enjoy holistic treatments in the comfort of The Nest, provided by expert therapists from The Barn Salon - perfect for soothing mind, body and spirit. For nature lovers, book a guided walk with DCS Ecology and explore Kingfishers’ land through the eyes of an expert. and photography enthusiasts can join award-winning resident photographer Richard Allenby-Pratt for a relaxed two-hour session. And you can also make the most of a private astronomy session under Suffolk’s famously clear skies, guided by Paul, an experienced outreach astronomer with nearly 50 years of stargazing expertise. These extras come at a slight added cost, so mention these to the owners when booking to find out more.

Discover the rich landscape and heritage surrounding Wildlands, which is nestled in Suffolk’s gently rolling countryside. Explore ancient villages with thatched cottages and medieval churches, or visit Framlingham Castle, made famous by Ed Sheeran’s Castle on the Hill. Nearby Helmingham Hall offers a glimpse into Tudor life, while Easton Farm Park is perfect for a family day out.

Food lovers can enjoy everything from our cosy local pub to award-winning restaurants. Just 20 minutes away, Woodbridge offers riverside walks, tide mills, cinema and boutique shops. Further afield, explore Snape Maltings, Sutton Hoo or spot rare birds at RSPB Minsmere along the Suffolk coast.
