Cranfield Retreat & Glamping

Couldn’t have wished for a better way to see in 2026

Pros: Amazing location and setting, amazing hosts nothing was to much trouble

Relaxing time in a beautiful location

Pros: Location, communication with the host, the log burner and comfort of the shepherd’s hut, the well equipped kitchen, the hot tub

Pros: Hot tub & peaceful accommodation. Loved our hobbit hole

Excellent accommodation

Pros: Excellent location & perfect for relaxing. Accommodation was clean & comfortable. The shared kitchen had everything you could need & the 2 bathrooms were spacious & very clean. The hosts were brilliant & made sure we had everything we required.

Pros: Absolutely blissful break with my husband. We really needed some US time away from our very busy lives and this little piece of heaven didn't disappoint! Would highly recommend. Loved it!!! Thank you so much Clare and Henry.

Cons: Nothing!!

Pros: We had an absolutely fantastic stay at Cranfield Retreat and Glamping! From the moment we arrived, the owners were incredibly welcoming and accommodating. They made sure we had everything we needed and checked in to ensure we were comfortable throughout our stay. The site is beautifully spacious and well thought out, with plenty of room to relax and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. The cabins and yurts were clean, cozy, and extremely comfortable — a perfect mix of rustic charm and modern comfort. The barbecue area was a great touch, and we really enjoyed spending time there in the evenings. A big plus was the hot tub — such a relaxing treat, especially under the stars! The ambient lighting at night also created a lovely atmosphere around the site, making it feel even more special. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend Cranfield Retreat to anyone looking for a relaxing, well-equipped, and memorable getaway. Definitely a 5-star experience!

Pros: The hosts were so welcoming. Facilities were spotless. It suited both my husband and I and our toddler. We only stayed one night this time as it was a new place but we could have easily stayed for the week! It feels like the middle of nowhere when you are there but is actually close to local amenities and attractions if you wanted them.

We couldn’t have have asked for a lovely and more unique place to stay

Pros: We stayed in the Yurt and the Hobbit House .. both were incredibly comfortable, very clean, unique & special. Both felt very separated due to the clever and beautiful planting scheme of flowers and grasses. The 2x communal bathrooms were great , very clean, spacious and fab showers and the kitchen and lounge area had everything you needed . Just perfect all round.

Cons: There was nothing to dislike about the property !

Peaceful location with quirky accommodation

Pros: The location is lovely and peaceful, it was about a 20 minute walk into Long Melford. We stayed in the Shepherds Hut which was a good size and nicely decorated. We didn’t use the kitchen facilities as we only stayed one night, but they would be good if you were staying longer. The bathrooms were nicer than others in similar places I’ve stayed. The hosts were welcoming.

Cons: A screen or something to the side of the hot tub would be nice for a little privacy.

Pros: Lovely accommodation set in the beautiful Suffolk countryside, with surprisingly many amenities provided (crockery, coffee, sugar, even oven trays and cling film!) with very welcoming and thoughtful hosts. Would highly recommend.
