We appreciated the size, qualities, cleanliness and amenity of The Woodshed. The range of places to see, close by, is very impressive. We’d stay there again.

Disliked: Communication
Had an overall pleasant two night stay at the woodshed. The property is in a lovely spot with nice walks nearby and Aldeburgh just a short drive away. Although the place seemed clean upon entry, the kitchen equipment was not, plates still had crumbs from the previous occupants and kitchen utensils were dirty… we washed everything up before use so that was ok, but not what you expect. The bed is really comfy so you get a good nights sleep and it’s a very quiet area. The shower is terrible as mentioned by some other reviewers… think it’s time for a new one. Overall we enjoyed our stay.
