The home sits on the beautifully converted first floor of a period hall, overlooking gorgeous formal gardens. With its tasteful furnishings and high ceilings letting plenty of light, the space feels both restful and chic. Outside, the tennis court provides a spot for endless fun – whether it's a lazy afternoon game or a competitive morning match. Location-wise, the village of Parham is a perfect base from which to discover Suffolk's countries side and coast. The seaside town of Aldeburgh is just twenty minutes away by car, and with its literary festival, public art installations and world-class fish and chips, it's a must-visit. A little closer to home is the ancient market town of Framlingham, complete with an imposing castle and a pub of the same name. Arrive back in the evening to local treats – your hosts like to welcome you with fresh flowers, homemade marmalade, eggs from their own chickens, and fruit and vegetables according to the season.
