About this cabin rental
A perfect contemporary, romantic retreat – this lovingly converted historic stables is set in impressive grounds. Inside, the horses have definitely bolted and instead, you are greeted with grandeur, thanks to high vaulted ceilings, a premium bespoke kitchen space and carefully aged Chesterfield sofas – the attention to detail here is phenomenal. Five large round windows and three statement porthole lights suspended from the ceiling bathe the place with light. Stunning wooden doors slide open to reveal a gorgeous bedroom suite – we adore the freestanding iron bath – ideal for a luxurious soak. Enjoy a glass of Champagne on the private terrace overlooking the walled gardens and congratulate yourself on this great find, then enjoy an alfresco barbecue lunch. There's a shared tennis court too (racquets provided) if you fancy a game. Set in the grounds of a beautiful Queen Anne period house, previous homes on the site were owned by politicians Roger Wentworth (an ancestor to Jane Seymour, third queen consort of King Henry VIII) and Oliver Raymond. More recently, the main house was used as Lady Jane Felsham's home in the BBC drama Lovejoy, about a roguish antiques dealer. Being in the middle of an old family estate, miles of wonderful footpaths take you to idyllic countryside. Or visit Lavenham, a twenty-minute drive away – considered to be one of Britain's best-preserved medieval villages, while the market town of Sudbury is a twelve-minute ride. Of course, there are plenty of antique shops to discover in the area if you want to channel your inner Lovejoy.
