Beautifully Converted 16th Century Barn with wonderful Jacuzzi hot tub

This beautifully converted barn dating back to the 16th Century is located in Pages Green - a secluded part of the tranquil village - Wetheringsett.

Old Oak Barn is accessed through a chunky solid oak door with a natural stone entrance hall. Not only will barn enthusiasts get excited over the traditional, hand-crafted, Suffolk latched doors, timber floors, massive supporting beams and distinctive floor to ceiling windows flooding light into this open-plan living and dining space, but they will also note the warm, friendly and welcoming character of the building.

The living space features dimable designer lights, leather sofas and a hearty wood burning stove. The large bespoke kitchen boasts a beautiful stone floor, thick luxurious granite work tops, traditional butler sink, cosy corner breakfast area and all the high-end appliances you would expect from a quality barn conversion.

Wander up to the spacious galleried landing where you will find a large comfortable sofa providing the perfect spot to read a book, snooze OR marvel at the large period lantern suspended in the hall. Retreat to the master bedroom where you will discover the super king size oak four-poster bed and from here you can lie back and gaze up at the stars through the full height windows on a clear night! A further super king bedroom with en-suite can also be found on the ground floor.

Celebration weekend
We celebrated my 60th birthday and it was a fantastic place to do so. The recommendation for the chef was excellent also- so a great weekend for us all and we would not hesitate to forward the recommendations to others if asked.

Break between Christmas and New Year
A lovely barn conversion with plenty of space for 8 of us. Perfectly described on the VRBO website. A most relaxing break with the family in a quiet and remote part of Suffolk. Would recommend and would go again.

Great escape to the country
Old Oak Barn lived up to our expectations and was a lovely place to stay and celebrate our parents 50th wedding anniversary. The barn provides spacious, well maintained accommodation, the kids loved the pool table and dart board whilst the adults loved sundowners on the patio overlooking the fields. It is set in an extremely quiet location amongst fields, which was perfect for our family. It could only be bettered if the nearest pub was closer, and less than an hours walk. For any family looking for a rural getaway in the middle of Suffolk, this is it!
