Family-friendly home rentals with a hot tub

Ramson Lodge - with hot tub & fishing lake
Absolutely amazing. Beautiful inside and the grounds were even better. I booked this for my mum 60th birthday and we all had an incredible time. All rooms were beautiful with a lovely kitchen too, even better the welcome pack they leave you. The wrap around veranda was the highlight for us, we spent most of the days on that with the hot tub, we were lucky enough to have good weather so we could really make the most of it. The fishing lake was lovely my partner fished and enjoyed it. The owner was always happy to answer any questions whenever I needed them. Thankyou so much.

The Farmhouse
Sarah and Aaron were great hosts. Extremely friendly and flexible , our kids loved chatting with them at the end of the driveway. They let our little boy fish in their big pond which he loved and chopped extra wood for me who loves their open fire and log burner in what is a lovely spacious house. Such a spacious and peaceful stay. Would absolutely recommend this air b&b and these hosts. No stress at all. Thank you

One Bedroom Converted Barn with Gym & Spa (FL)
Very clean, bedding and towels smelled great. Hot tub was very relaxing, nice farmland surroundings and would recommend shoes/boots that can withstand the mud!

Old Oak Barn with Jacuzzi hot tub
Cannot recommend this place highly enough. Marcus ensured we were very well informed before arrival providing a guest book with comprehensive information and recommendations. We were greeted with bottles of wine & the house was very warm & music sound system set up. The barn is absolutely beautiful & immaculate. It is in a very remote area but this suited us all as we were happy to stay in and enjoy it. The log burner, games room & hot tub were added bonuses. A big thank you to Marcus for a truly amazing weekend break away with good friends ❤️

The Willows
Have stayed at the Willows many times and it never disappoints. Always a great stay

Bellropes - Modern Countryside Retreat Sleeps 27
Fantastic facilities for a big group weekend away; we were a group of 18 and had plenty of space and the sleeping arrangements were great. The property has been redeveloped to accommodate large groups. Karen was very helpful before and after the booking, asking about bedroom set up (twin vs double) and also giving instructions around check-in and check-out. The garden is fantastic and we enjoyed making use of that and the hot tub! We also had caterers in on the Saturday night who had cooked at the venue before and the enormous dining table was brilliant for our celebration.

Beautiful Barn with wood burner near Snape
We loved our stay at Acorn cottage barn. Location is perfect for Aldeburgh and exploring Orford. The barn was spotless, spacious and we had everything we needed plus more. Toys for the toddler was a bonus plus cot, highchair, black out blinds and bath mats were super thoughtful. Helen was always responsible and made sure we had all we needed. Would highly recommend this accommodation and will be telling our friends and family about it. Thanks Helen!

Bluebell Studio, Saxmundham
Wonderful spacious and great communication and guide to the area. Big bed and high ceilings too! And a bottle of wine in the fridge. Great spot for a Very Peaceful Slice of Suffolk!

Luxury, cosy studio in village with pubs & walks
The surrounding area is populated with buildings that are centuries old. Staying at the Old Forge involved us closely with the charm and history of this area of Suffolk. The local shop the Boxford Stores is the oldest recorded shop in Britain. The beams in the bedroom are beautiful, my husband even noticed the traditional plasterwork had horsehair within it. It's certainly the most historically interesting individual home we've stayed in , fascinating. The bed was so comfortable, we loved the quality of the bedding.

Romantic riverside beauty - Woodshed Letheringham
Letheringham Mill is an incredibly beautiful place, and the cottage I stayed in was out of this world. The grounds are stunning, so obvious Jacqui is a keen gardener, yet incredibly dog friendly. Inside is as wonderful as outside, and there is a wonderful eye for detail, and the cottage is so well equipped. I'm trying to be a tad careful as to the help Jacqui actually gave me, as I don't want future guests to expect the same and leave her in an awkward position.... she was a phenomenal host!

Quirky 16th century cottage in Wattisham Suffolk
Watt cottage is a beautiful little cottage which makes you feel at home. The cottage was well equipped with all the essentials needed. Samantha communicated with me when needed and responded quickly. I would definitely recommend staying at Watt cottage. Thank you for a lovely stay.

The Annex, Hamble House
Great few days in the annex. Great location for exploring the area. The annex was clean and very comfortable. Would stay again.

Willow Cottage,Saxtead Bottom,Framlingham
What a beautiful cottage, set in the heart of the Suffolk countryside. A totally relaxing holiday, with everything we needed. Thank you Penny for the fabulous cake!

The Coach House, Melton, Woodbridge
The Coach House is beautiful, cosy, secure and a walkable distance into Woodbridge. The bedrooms in particular are lovely — high-quality bedding, both en-suite. It's located in the very large garden of Julia's house, which guests are free to make use of. Because Melton is a mile or so out of Woodbridge, it's easy to drive out towards places like Orford (well worth a visit). Julia was very easy to deal with. We would be very happy to return.
Family-friendly home rentals with a pool

serenity luxury lodge
Accommodation: The caravan itself was spotless and well-equipped with all the modern amenities one could need. The kitchen was fully stocked with utensils and appliances, making it easy to prepare meals. The living area was cosy and comfortable, perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring. The beds were incredibly comfortable, ensuring a good night’s sleep. Bonus did not need to take bed linen as the beds were made up Facilities: The park’s facilities were top-notch. The communal areas were clean and well-maintained, and the on-site shop had everything we needed. The kids loved the playground and the swimming pool, which were both safe and fun.

2013 Willerby Sunset Static Caravan Holiday Home
Jenny, I hope you like my review, we enjoyed our short holiday in your caravan. I think you will need to fix some of the furniture, like the wardrobe door in the double room. Otherwise everything was fine, thanks. Peter

Homely 3 bedroomed caravan on Mersea Island, Essex
A lovely caravan in a beautifully quiet location with a great view, but on a park which offers lots of activities and facilities. Really comfortable beds. Ideal for couples as 3 doubles. Sharon always replied quickly when I messaged and was helpful. I’m sure we will be back in the future.

The Annex
Had a great stay. Comfy bed, great location and Wendy was helpful with local amenities . Will be back for sure

Clacton Caravan-Valley Farm-Near Beach-3 Bedroom
Lovely apart nice a clean. Nice size bedroom. Host communicated with me from start to finish. Highly recommended 5 star service Will definitely revisit again soon.

Wyndham Court, Naze Marine
A fantastic lodge which had everything we needed for our stay and was spotlessly clean. Michelle was lovely and met us on arrival to explain everything. Would highly recommend.

Rose Barn
A comfortable barn to stay in with the added benefit of both a pool and tennis court to enjoy during your stay.

Romantic or Family Rural Bliss
We felt privileged to be in such an amazing place. Very comfortable Cottage in beautiful grounds. So quiet and peaceful. The surrounding countryside is spectacular and we enjoyed several really lovely walks in the area.
