About this property
Nestled away overlooking the Suffolk countryside in the village of Henham, Mandalore is a tastefully converted barn with high-spec interiors. Sleeping up to seven guests in three well-appointed bedrooms with three modern bathrooms, this rural retreat is ideal for a family get together or a holiday with friends.
Mandalore offers spacious, light and airy accommodation split over two floors with a spectacular open-plan living space and a private balcony where you can soak up the sun and while away the time watching deer, hares and pheasants in the fields. The contemporary kitchen is well-equipped, including a Gaggie Brera coffee machine so you can start your day with a cup of freshly brewed coffee, and a sit-up island so you can enjoy a glass of wine or two whilst keeping your fellow guest who is the designated chef company. The dining area features a large dining table and benches which can be swapped for chairs if you prefer. Interestingly, the big kids will be pleased to discover that the dining table transforms into a pool table. At the end of a long day of exploring, nothing beats relaxing on the super-sized corner sofa with a blockbuster movie or a good book. The ground floor also boasts a utility room with separate entrance making it ideal for furry friends with mucky paws; a den with sofa and further television; and a stunning wet-room.
Upstairs, you will find three well-appointed bedrooms. The master bedroom is generously sized and features a luxurious, king-size bed with views of the balcony and fields beyond, and its own en-suite shower room. The balcony offers a wonderful spot to enjoy the sunset with a tipple of your choice or simply sit and admire the sounds of nature. The second bedroom with king-size bed feels bright and cheerful and shares the family bathroom with bedroom two which has a single bed and a set of bunk beds. The family bathroom boasts both a large shower cubicle and a separate bath.
Leading out through bi-folding doors is a sheltered patio area with far reaching views of the surrounding fields. There is parking for two cars and an electric car charging point. The village of Henham is home to the privately owned Henham Park estate which plays host to several events throughout the year including the popular Latitude Festival.

We enjoyed our stay very much. We went to the Lido, Maize Maze, boating lake in Southwold and crazy golf in Thorpeness, Lowestoft to the cinema and arcades, crabbing in Walberswick, Two Magpies for breakfast and the pubs that were recommended! Not forgetting sitting outside for the views and star gazing and a game of pool!
