About this property

The Apple Bobber - UKC7130

Beside the water, The Apple Bobber is a dreamy retreat for two — a place to slow down, reconnect and escape everyday life. Watch dragonflies dance and unwind within nature beneath a canopy of stars.. All on the Ground Floor:

Open plan living space.

Living area: Woodburner

Dining area.

Kitchen area: Induction Hob, Coffee Machine, Fridge (Small Freezer Compartment)

Bedroom: Super Kingsize (6ft) Bed Ensuite: Cubicle Shower, Heated Towel Rail, Toilet. Electricity, bed linen, towels and Wi-Fi included. Initial fuel for wood burner included. Travel cot available. Grounds with sitting-out area, garden furniture, barbecue and firepit (shared with other properties on-site). Hot tub for 2 (private). Sauna (shared, by prior arrangement with the owner). Bike Store. Private parking for 1 car. No smoking.. Nestled in peaceful surroundings, The Apple Bobber offers an intimate, elegant escape into nature. Thoughtfully designed with comfort and style in mind, this spacious hideaway under canvas invites you to slow down, breathe deeply, and reconnect with what matters most.

Inside, natural textures and soft lighting create a calm, romantic atmosphere. The super king size Hypnos cashmere bed, dressed in crisp white linens, promises a night of deep, rest. A wood-burning stove keeps the canvas room warm and welcoming on cooler evenings, while rustic-chic furnishings blend effortlessly with the landscape outside. On your private deck, savour morning coffee as the world wakes, then sink into the wood-fired soaking tub with a glass of something special, or dine beneath the fading light with supper cooked over the Firepit BBQ. Set within four acres of gardens, woodland, and a natural pond, guests can hire the private sauna for 2 or 3 hour sessions where they will have sole access to relax and unwind, or indulge in an outdoor culinary experience, cooking pizza in a hired Ooni oven under the stars, to make your stay feel truly memorable.

The surrounding countryside is quintessential Suffolk, winding lanes lead to orchards, old churches, and thatched cottages. A short drive takes you to the coast - to Aldeburgh, Orford, or Southwold - where sandy and shingle beaches, seafood huts, and local galleries await. Nearby farm shops, village pubs, and weekend markets overflow with Suffolk cheese, freshly baked bread, and local cider. The Historic towns of Bury St Edmunds is less than an hour away, with shops, restaurants and the famous Abbey gardens. Whether you’re seeking a romantic retreat, a peaceful pause, or simply a little time to be together, The Apple Bobber offers a serene, restorative escape, a place to unwind beneath a canopy of stars. The lodge is one of a small, peaceful collection of boutique lodges at The Firs Suffolk, where seclusion and comfort go hand in hand. Perfect for unforgettable gatherings with family and friends, while still enjoying your own space.
