The Workshop by UK Vacations

The Workshop by UK Vacations Ltd is where you need to go if you're looking for a short-stay or longer break in the Suffolk Countryside.

A romantic escape for couples or quiet retreat for individuals, The Workshop is a unique and comfortable place to be based.

Explore Suffolk's Heritage Coastline, only 30 minutes away. Visit the popular coastal towns of Aldeburgh and Southwold and the friendly Coastal villages of Walberswick and Thorpeness.
Only 10 minutes from Framlingham's Castle on The Hill

The Workshop is an impressive single storey former farm outbuilding, beautifully converted to an incredibly high standard, which sits at the edge of a one acre wildflower meadow. Ideal for couples looking to get away from it all and relax in style and comfort, the attention to detail is apparent throughout.

The elegantly designed holiday home has a fair few 'wow factors'. From the curved wall in the sitting room which leads you through to the bedroom, or the incredible patio doors and decking area overlooking the wild meadow. The Workshop has something for everyone!

Open the patio doors to sit on the impressive decked area and soak up some Suffolk sunshine, or head off to the market town of Framlingham - just a few minutes' drive away. From a meal or drink at the local pub or a walk around the castle on the hill, you have so much to explore! The Suffolk Coast can also be easily reached by car in under 30 minutes. Consider The Workshop an ideal location to 'get away from it all', but know that Suffolk is right there waiting for you to explore.

The Space

Sitting / Dining / Kitchen
Sliding/folding patio doors lead from the oak deck into a large open plan living space where the focal point is a suspended spherical steel fireplace designed and made in France by Dominique Imbert.

Facing it is a generous corner sofa with views out to the meadow. Other features include a large flat screen FreeSat Smart TV, a side table designed by 20th century designer Eero Saarinen and Tolomeo Mega floor lamp.

The dining area is furnished with a table and chairs created by the Danish furniture designer Arne Jacobson in the 1950s, including four iconic ‘series 7’ chairs. The well equipped kitchen has a built-in cooker, Nespresso Coffee machine, integrated dishwasher, microwave and a white stone surface with sleek grey units underneath.

Bedroom
A curving white wall leads to the bedroom where you'll find a king size bed with crisp white 100% cotton sheets and duvet cover, a double wardrobe and Amazon Alexa smart speaker. Double aspect windows give welcome views across the meadow.

Bathroom
In the spacious bathroom is a large double-ended bath, wc and basin along with a huge circular shower cubicle.

Outside
Outside this self-catering Suffolk country holiday accommodation is a generous decking providing a delightful suntrap (when the sun is out!) and the four patio doors slide back to extend the open plan living space to the outside. The meadow gives a picturesque backdrop and changes throughout the year – arrive in the late spring and it is likely to be awash with buttercups and in the winter visited by moorhens and other wildlife.

Guests have private access to the entire accommodation.

Your host is on-hand over the telephone at all times and lives locally, in case of an emergency.

Located on the outskirts of the village of Badingham in a rural location. You can walk to the local White Horse pub in around 25 mintues but the road is the A1120 and can be quite busy at certain times of they day.

The village of Peasenhall is in the other direction and this quaint little village offers a shop and Post Office.

The village of Dennington is only 5 mintues by car and offers an outstanding traditional Suffolk pub with fabulous food and atmosphere.

A little further is Framlingham (7-10 minutes by car) and here you have a super market, two service stations, 4 great pubs and lots of interesting and independent shops to browse around. Oh.. and did we mention Framlingham's Castle on The Hill?! A MUST SEE when you're visiting the area.

The Suffolk Heritage Coast is only 30 minutes away by car and with a mixed variety of coastal towns and villages, you'll wish you were staying longer, with so much to do and see.

You will need a car to get around. Or if you're organised and book a real 'Staycations' and a supermarket delivery you could get a train to Wickham Market or Darsham and a short 15-20 minute taxi ride to The Worksop.

Definitely bring your bikes if you have them. There are miles of Suffolk lanes to enjoy.

You may experience intermittent traffic noise from the A road close-by.
