A private retreat among the vines, with an outdoor roll top bath

Stay in a converted railway carriage set within our chardonnay vines, with a private outdoor roll top bath, a woodburner and no wi-fi to distract you. We're a family farm near Saxmundham, 10 miles from Suffolk's heritage coast and around two hours from London.

Inside the carriage

King bed with a memory foam mattress and hotel-quality cotton bedding
Private en-suite with toilet, rainfall shower and sink, plus locally sourced luxury toiletries
Two-ring hob and all the kitchen essentials
Woodburner for cosy evenings, with plenty of wood provided
Wi-fi free, but we get 4G on most of the farm
Dog friendly (see below)

You'll have the whole carriage to yourselves, with all the comforts and none of the distractions.

The outdoor bath

Our roll top bath sits on your private decking, looking out over the hedgerows and fields. Unlike a hot tub, it uses fresh water for every soak, with no chemicals and no waiting for it to heat up. It's a wonderful way to reset in the fresh air, and it's yours to use 24/7. If you're a Wim Hof fan, it's perfect for cold soaks too.

Your corner of the farm

Your carriage is completely self-contained, in its own private space within the chardonnay block of our vineyard, where we grow chardonnay and pinot noir vines.

You'll also meet our three pigs, Pumpkin, Patchwork and Pig, who are always happy to say hello. Wildlife is part of daily life here, and guests often spot it on an evening stroll.

On a clear night the sky is full of stars. We keep lighting to a minimum, so please bring a torch or a phone with a torch if you're arriving or leaving after dark.

Getting here and around

There's free parking on site, and the carriage is a short walk across the meadow. Check-in is self-service, and we're always on hand by message if you need anything, though we'll otherwise leave you to enjoy your stay in peace.

The farm is remote, down quiet country lanes, but we're only 3 miles from the A12, so getting around the coast is easy. We recommend bringing a car, though we're on a cycle route and some guests do arrive by bike. Saxmundham train station is 5 minutes away, and we can recommend local taxi firms. A pretty 35-minute walk across the fields takes you to the local pub, and there's plenty more within cycling distance.
