Peace and quiet
Guests say this home is in a quiet area.
The Strawberry Box is a luxuriously converted old tractor barn located on our working strawberry farm in rural Suffolk. South facing with extensive views across the rolling countryside, it is self contained and private, perfect for a quiet relaxing holiday, a romantic break or a base for exploring the rich heritage and beautiful villages around us. There are good pubs within comfortable walking distance and footpaths and narrow lanes to explore close by - or just take a wander around the farm.

Guest access
The Strawberry Box is part of a small working fruit growing farm with areas set aside for conservation and habitat improvement. Guests are welcome to explore the farm to see how it is managed, relax in the wildflower meadow or sit by the pond and watch the ducks.
Other things to note
The entire property is on one level with no steps from the parking area throughout all the rooms. There is one step to the terrace. For the full accessibility guide please message us. The Strawberry Box has been designed to be energy efficient and sustainable. Based on our eco credentials we have a silver award from Green Tourism and a gold award from Suffolk Carbon Charter. We are grateful to both organisations for the advice they have given.
