What our guests say

"Great place to stay and lovely accommodation, great walks along the river and some superb pubs. Very handy for RSPB nature reserves at Minsmere, Boyton, Haversgate, Hollesley and Flatford. Sutton Hoo and Framlingham Castle – great days out too."

"We have thoroughly enjoyed our break at Ancient House Barn. The Barn is beautifully decorated and spotlessly clean. We liked the upstairs down living and the sleeping arrangements are so comfortable. Woodbridge is an ideal base to explore the surrounding area. We visited Southwold, Aldeburgh, Orford and walked to Melton along the river. We will definitely be back – Suffolk is beautiful."

"Excellent facilities at Ancient House Barn – we very much enjoyed our stay. Spotlessly clean and beautifully decorated, we loved “upstairs down” living arrangements of bedrooms downstairs as these were nice and cool for bedtime! Great choice of restaurants at Woodbridge, with some lovely shops and nice to wander down the river in the evenings. We visited Snape Maltings, Dunwich for fish and chips, Framlingham, Orford, Aldeburgh and Thorpeness. We will definitely book this lovely barn for next year!"

"We have had yet another fantastic holiday at the Ancient House Barn. It is just soooo comfortable. Our 2 year old has loved exploring Suffolk with us again. We have bought lots of nice books at Browsers, gone swimming in the Deben pool, enjoyed great lunches at the Wild Strawberry Café and loved the cakes from The Cake Shop Bakery. We have sailed our pond yacht and played in park, loved walks along the river and generally had a fabulous time. THANK YOU for the bubbles and making our stay so great. We can’t wait to come back in 6 weeks’ time for our summer holiday and do it all again."

''Fantastic stay, thank you. Felt very Covid safe. Great cottage, comfortable and complete with everything you could need. Lovely location. Would love to come back soon.'' - May, 2021

''This was our first break after a very long time and we could not have picked a better place to stay. Spotlessly clean and so comfortable. It really was a home from home. And what a great location!'' - May, 2021

This Suffolk self-catering accommodation is located moments from the heart of the historic market town of Woodbridge, located on the River Deben. The town has an excellent range of markets, cafes, restaurants, pubs and shops as well as an independent cinema and the famous Tide Mill, a rare example of a tide mill whose water wheel still turns.

Guests can enjoy the bird life on the nearby mud flats with ‘Birds by Barge’ trips, with the anticipation of seeing an elusive avocet, provided on the River Deben by the RSPB between November and February. Woodbridge is also famous for those who enjoy sailing and is great for cycling and walking.

Woodbridge is conveniently located for exploring the Suffolk Coast and Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The picturesque town of Aldeburgh is a short drive away, as is RSPB Minsmere, the fascinating historic burial ground of Sutton Hoo, the Bawdsey Peninsular and Quay with unspoilt small sandy beach.

Woodbridge railway station is a few minutes walk away.

Sorry, no smoking or unaccompanied teenagers.

The entrance to Ancient House Mews is only 2.34m wide so may not be suitable for all vehicles.

Great care has been taken in this sensitive conversion of the Listed Building and to safeguard the vulnerable historic fabric a permanent operating humidistat controlled air extraction system has been installed. Therefore a decision has been taken not to incorporate a washing machine, thereby avoiding the damage to the timber structure caused by condensation drawn from wet clothes and from the washing machine itself.

Once you have filled out the online booking form, you will be given the option to pay by credit or debit card, or by BACs transfer. A 25% deposit is requested at the time of your booking to secure your booking. The balance and a returnable good housekeeping deposit are due six weeks before your holiday commences.
