Jan Lewis, November 2023

Best ever dog friendly self catering barns with hot tubs. Dog treats, poo bags in dispenser, dog towels and shampoo. 2 dog friendly enclosed paddocks, lots of poo bins around the barns. Also a great breakfast basket for us humans. No extra charge for dogs either


Collette Sheaff, November 2022

Amazing dog friendly cottages with everything you and your pooch needs for a relaxing stay. Fully secure gardens, a 2 acre secure meadow on site, doggie essentials also provided including yummy all natural treats, poop bags, towels, bowls an out door doggie shower with shampoo, and a yummy basket of treats for the humans too. Can’t recommend highly enough.


Ardel Rageh, September 2021

Because my pooch loves it there and we have quite a nice time too!


Colin Thompson, September 2021

Always looking to improve facilities not just for their two legged guests but also their four legged ones as well.


Angela Hayward, September 2021

My new dog is gonna love it here


Lesley McCann, September 2021

We love woodfarm Barns. We have been taking our 2 dogs for many years. It's the 8th wonder of the world. The dogs know where they are going as soon as we get on the A12.

It's like home from home. Love it love it love it.


Janet Huwen, August 2021

Truly a dog friendly place, (rather than just a place that accepts dogs), Carl and his team really have thought of everything, Enclosed gardens, stable doors on the properties, complementary dog treats and poo bags, a meadow nearby to exercise dogs in, with separate area for nervous dogs, wash down station for muddy dogs and wonderfully comfy accommodation, hot tubs and welcome breakfast basket for the humans too, what's not to love?!


Sharon Thorpe, August 2021

We’ve been visiting the barns since our two Schnauzers were pups and it just gets better every year. Carl thinks of everything for the dogs and the humans - enclosed meadow is amazing plus treats for dogs and hot/cold water and shampoo with bath outside for happy dirty dogs. Will keep visiting regularly.


Kirsty Batteate, August 2021

A real home from home, Carl makes you feel extremely welcome and our dog was very happy with the treats left for her. Stunning barns, I highly recommend 👌


Anne Emery, August 2021

Full of useful information


Allisom Thorogood, August 2021

The best weekends had here. The pooch enjoys it more than us.


Alison O'Neill [email protected], August 2021

There is no where else quite like it. You feel as if you have really escaped staying here. Carl provides everything you need - unique accommodation with a tub tub to relax in. Plus it is super dog friendly too. As soon as you arrive, your stresses melt away. However long the stay, it is never ever long enough!


Lilian Anderson, August 2021

Great place


Ben Swan, August 2021

Having rescued a Dog who had been a stray and had a poor start to life there was no way we were going to put her in Kennels so we could have a holiday. We looked around and found Woodfarm Barns web site , it was helpful and informative as was Carl the owner when we booked . The whole experience was everything that was promised and more . From the moment we arrived nothing was to much trouble and the holiday was marvellous. All of our needs and Bella’s were catered for and it was just a really special holiday. We now return every year as it’s just such a special place and it’s just perfect .


Sue Swan, August 2021

When we first found Woodfarm Barns we had recently Rescued a dog. She was nervous and afraid of other dogs.

We wanted a safe place for a holiday together and Woodfarm Barns gave us that and so much more. We now go back every year. It’s private, peaceful and safe. Lots of extra goodies for us and gorgeous dog. Amazing 🤩


Ann Searle, August 2021

They don't just say that they are dog friendly, they really mean it! Absolutely fabulous place to stay!


Kate McCarthy, August 2021

I find a lot of holiday places state they are dog friendly but I find they are just dog tolerant whereas Woodfarms is one of the most dog friendly places I have been lucky enough to stay in. Carl provides dog treats, poo bags, a 2 acre field to walk them (with a small enclosed garden for old or nervous dogs), a self contained garden with their own shower station, he even has poo bins by the entrance and the field for your convenience. The barns are relaxing and quiet which is lovely if you have a reactive dog to noise at night. Carl has loads of information on all of suffolk for dog friendly walks, beaches, restaurants and places to visit. I dont think he could do any more. Excellent place to visit.


Sue Pulley, August 2021

We've stayed many times over the years and our dog Seamus loves it-particulary Woof-farm Meadow!!

I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for an idyllic escape with their good boys or girls.


Elaine Hutton, August 2021

I stayed at this venue with my family and our dog. I have in the past experienced that dog friendly accommodation is of lesser quality but this was quite the opposite. The accommodation was fabulous and it was a privilege to be able to stay somewhere marvellous and to bring along our pet. This particular accommodation had a secure garden with the added bonus of a secure dog field within a minutes walk away.

I would fully recommend Woodfarm Barns for the Dog Friendly Award.

Woodfarm Barns certainly go the extra mile when it comes to welcoming dogs. Our dog had the best holiday ever which meant we did too. The dog friendly meadow (with segregated area for nervous dogs) was perfect. The hot and cold water outside taps for doggy baths and the doggy treats made our stay here just wonderful.


Emma Hawkley, August 2021

The best holiday we've had with our dogs. They were as welcome as we were, lots of treats provided. Secure and private gardens meant letting the dogs out last thing at night was easy and the secure field was a real treat for our nervous and loud dog!

Warm and friendly welcome. Pippin and I stayed for a weekend as while back and the experienced has stayed with me. It was truly relaxing. The barns are well equipped and the hampers are delicious. The hot tub really was the icing on the cake. I couldn't have asked for more. In fact when ever I think ooh lets have a weekend away and stay at Woodford Barns they are always booked up. So my top tip is plan ahead.

We go to Woodfarm Barns every year with Charlie, our chihuahua. The barns are luxurious. Breakfast hampers and dog treats are a welcoming site on arrival and each barn has a secure garden, (some with hot tubs).

Paul Summerfield, August 2021

We have 2 dogs, a toy poodle and a collie poodle cross, we have taken them to Woodfarm 3ctimes now and will be going again this september, we love it there, the accomodation is superb, the dog friendly garden is a bonus. That with the hot tub makes for a relaxing break. The real bonus for us is the enclosed field, whereca townies the dogs are always on a lead, here they can run free for as long and ax many times as they want. Carl the owner is very friendly and helpful aswell. Also the accomodation is within travel of some lovely seaside towns as well as the countryside.

Totally recommended.

Fabulous service, facilities and surroundings


Joanna Hindley, August 2021

The extra touches really meant so much - the dog shampoo provided next to a hose outside, the doggy treat jar - all made for a wonderful stay for us and for our dog!


Sue Selby, August 2021

Having two small terriers, looking to have a break in this country with two dogs can prove a little trickier but Woodfarm Barns has it all covered !

Even the dogs own meadows and a shampoo shower station to clean them off ! Plus home made treats as a welcome !

Beautiful part of the country to visit and excellent facilities and Karl so friendly and approachable!

Secure clean gardens and beautiful lodges- well recommended!


Tilly Wright, August 2021

Woodfarm Barns is such a great place to visit! They are very accommodating and it really is set to give you that home from home feeling. We have visited here twice now and are going to book again as we love it so much. Would highly recommend staying at Woodfarm Barns!


Laura Kelsey, August 2021

Carl and his team go above and beyond to look after their guests, including dogs. I have followed Carl and Woodfarm Barns and Barges for a few years and watched how he is always improving his business for his guests. I belong to a local dog FB group and posted his flyer after someone from the group asked for somewhere local to stay. Friends on that page stayed here, even though I have never stayed there myself and would not have recommended Woodfarm Barnes, if I didn't know or see the reviews from this business. They now live quite close to this area and recommend their friends to stay here. During lockdown, I feel I got to know Carl a lot better and how much he loves his business and watched his antics of work / projects he undertook during this time. He used to post daily anecdotal and topical Covid related posts, which cheered myself and everyone up each morning before work (I work for the NHS) and conducted weekly quizzes and get togethers via zoom. He was also a pivotal help to his local community to people unable to get out and delivered shopping to the vulnerable. I think Carl and his team deserve the award

Been to both barns and barge and it’s the lovely touches , food, treats, the required bins not far away , barns fenced in and the exercise area is great .


Jean Kerr, August 2021

Independently owned by a cracking chap, Carl. Not forgetting the marvellous team at his side. Understands the needs of dogs and their human custodians. Extremely well presented accommodation with locally sourced products. Well placed for a variety of outings, or going no where at all.


Moira Hough, August 2021

Great doggy facilities. Lovely place to stay


Teresa Palmer, August 2021

Absolutely fantastic place for doggies, meadow to run around in, own private garden to lay around in, doggies own shower, dog treats and the doggie families do OK too. They have it all covered


Gail Cooper, August 2021

We have stayed with our staffy several times & it’s simply the best dog friendly self catering. Each barn has a secure garden. There is a secure 2 acre dog meadow for dogs to run about in. A dog shower & doggy treats plus a lovely breakfast basket , hot tub, comfortable accommodation & a friendly welcome . Thoroughly recommend


Angela Dillon, August 2021

Safe gardens and a fenced exercise area. Doggy treats part of welcome pack.Never experienced this anywhere before or since.


Denise Holding, August 2021

Brilliant place to stay, relax and take time out. Everything is catered for and as much thought has gone into providing for our 4 legged friends as their owners. Loved our stay and will be returning.


Jane Dolman, August 2021

Had a wonderful stay with Kami who loved the facilities especially the meadow at sunrise. (And the Warm Dog shower)❤️

Great relaxing place to stay. We loved it. The dog loved it. Lots of little extra special touches and a whole field available just for giving the dog a run round. Every barn has its own private, secure garden and hot tub. Perfect

Stayed earlier this year. Excellent, fully secure, dog friendly gardens. Five star accommodation. Dog treats and poo bags provide. Dogs stay free on repeat visits. 3 spaniels and 2 hoomans had a great stay. Carl and his crew have thought of everything. Loads of dog friendly outings close by


Sue, August 2021

Fantastic stay here with our 3 dogs. So difficult to find somewhere to stay with multiple dogs and this was perfect. Clean with the dogs needs catered for with an outside paddock for morning and evening runs and a hot tub for us - luxury!!
