Your Lodge In The Suffolk Countryside

Tucked into the meadow behind The Willow, our seven lodges give you your own little corner of the Suffolk countryside. Inside, natural textures, earthy tones and plenty of space make settling in easy. Spend your days exploring, take your time over dinner, then wander back across the meadow at the end of the night. A Suffolk stay, with all the good bits close by.

Discover The Lodges

Good Lodges

Spacious, comfortable and made for easy stays in Suffolk. Our Good Lodges sleep up to four, with a king-size bed and sofa bed, plus plenty of space to settle in and make yourself at home. They’re dog-friendly too, so four-legged guests can come along for the adventure.

Made With The Meadow In Mind

Our lodges were built with their surroundings in mind, designed to sit naturally within the meadow while keeping their impact on the landscape and local habitats to a minimum. Thoughtful construction, recyclable materials and energy-efficient design all play their part, creating a stay that feels connected to the Suffolk countryside around it.

Current Promotions

We offer a range of stay packages throughout the year, shaped around the seasons and time spent here. From midweek breaks to longer stays, each offer is designed to make a relaxing rural retreat.

Step Outside

There’s plenty to fill your days before heading back to us. Explore Bury St Edmunds and its shops, markets and historic streets, pull on your boots for a walk through the Suffolk countryside or take the long way around the surrounding villages. However you spend the day, good food and your lodge in the meadow are waiting when you get back.

Connock England

We’ve worked with Connock England to create Verdant, a scent inspired by the countryside around us. Fresh and green, it blends blackcurrant, English rose and fig with citrus and gentle woods. You’ll find it throughout our rooms, and it’s available to buy on their website if you’d like to take a piece of us home with you.

We put @tidalrum up against Becca, one of our Weeping Willow bartenders, to settle it once and for all.
