Step inside to a wonderfully curated and airy open-plan living space with original features and a cosy wood burning stove, ideal for curling up with a glass of wine after an afternoon exploring. The fully equipped kitchen has everything you need to prepare a romantic supper. The super-king size bed, with a comfortable Hypnos cashmere mattress, crisp white linens and stargazing window above, entices you to enjoy Suffolk’s dark skies on clear nights in comfort, before what promises to be, an exceptional night’s sleep. Behind large oak sliding doors, the elegant en-suite bathroom features a roll-top bath and shower cubicle.

Outside, enjoy your own terrace, made for relaxing, dining and star-gazing. Light the firepit/BBQ, cook your freshly prepared pizza, then sink into your wood-fired hot tub for two and let the night sky sparkle overhead. Guests can hire a private sauna session for 2 or 3 hour sessions where they will have sole access to relax and unwind, an Ooni pizza oven brought to your lodge and lovely Dutch style bicycles. Or simply wander through three acres of gardens, woodland and a natural pond, the perfect place to disconnect, recharge and reconnect with nature and each other.

Every detail has been carefully thought of, from the uniquely renovated farm building, packed with original features and lovely design touches, to the ’little extras’ that make your stay truly special. Close by, you’ll find Aldeburgh, Southwold and Cove Hithe each offering the best of the Suffolk Heritage Coast. The lovely villages of Framlingham, Orford and Harleston all tempt you to wander the small streets, in and out boutique shops, local markets and eateries, treating yourselves along the way.

The Old Press is one of six boutique lodges at The Firs Suffolk, a comfortable countryside retreat in the heart of Suffolk. Perfect for unforgettable gatherings with family and friends, while still enjoying your own space.
