A country paradise in rural Suffolk, Blyth Rise Stays is the perfect passion project of friendly owners Pam & Mark, managed by their daughter Katie.

With help from their hard-working family, Pam and Mark have transformed their beloved ten-acre site into a haven for wildlife, strewn with lovingly planted trees, sweet-scented flora, and idyllic, landscaped waters.

You’ll also discover a selection of stylish, luxurious wooden Lake Lodges, and quirky Woodland Igluhuts that are not only packed with sumptuous style, but are kids-and-pet-free zones!

Named after the apples Pam and Mark have grown over the years, the six light-filled Lake Lodges each boast floor-to-ceiling French windows in every room, including the two en-suite kingsize bedrooms, for stunning morning views.

Later on, those amazing Suffolk sunsets can be enjoyed from your private furnished terrace, which comes equipped with a firepit, barbecue, and fluffy blankets to snuggle in when the night air turns chilly.

Meanwhile, the relaxed, open plan Igluhuts have been carefully hand crafted to provide plenty of romantic, home-from-home comfort, with each one named after trees you’ll find on the site.

From a king-sized bed dressed in 100% cotton linen, to a bathroom stocked with soft towels and locally sourced luxury toiletries, you’ll feel as though you’ve made a heavenly escape into nature.

More information

What to do after you’ve settled in? Well, you could do nothing but curl up by the water’s edge with a good book, or take a stroll along one of the many tranquil walking paths you’ll discover around the site.

For a special treat without having to leave the blissful confines of Blyth Rise Stays, why not enjoy a relaxing yoga session, or unwind in one of two woodland saunas? Each accommodates up to six people, with its own changing area, and a birch wood exterior that blends beautifully with the surrounding natural environment.

For day trips, take full advantage of the retreat’s superb location on the outskirts of Laxfield; a sleepy, chocolate-box village that’s within easy reach of some of Suffolk’s most loved attractions, including the historic castles of Orford and Framlingham, and many beautiful beaches along the windswept coast.

How ever you choose to while away those glorious holiday hours, that mesmerising sunset will be waiting for you at the end of the day… best enjoyed with a sizzling al fresco supper, and a refreshing drink.
