“A stunning windmill with panoramic views over the Suffolk countryside, just outside Lavenham. Interiors throughout are smart and modern and luxurious touches can be seen everywhere from the bespoke beds to the indulgent marble and shell bathroom. A romantic hideaway that's ideal for two couples.”

Hotel review

The Windmill in Suffolk is a striking self-catering hideaway run with great care by Natalie and Steve. Ten years after opening, it still feels immaculate, with thoughtful touches like Green & Black’s chocolate by the bed, Elemis sleep spray and wonderfully comfortable robes and slippers. Sleeping four, the windmill has a well-equipped kitchen with dishwasher and washing machine, plus SKY TV and a hidden music system. The bathroom gleams with mother of pearl tiles, a free-standing bath and walk-in shower, while the glass pod at the top offers sunrise on one side and sunset on the other. Just five minutes from Lavenham and fifteen from Bury St Edmunds, it’s a unique base for exploring Suffolk – though once inside, you may not want to leave.
