​— OUR STORY
"We cannot imagine being anywhere else, and we hope you'll understand why."
— Amy & Alison, The Firs Suffolk
We moved here in 2017 and set about turning the old farm buildings and grounds into a place for guests — somewhere to enjoy this quiet, tranquil corner of Suffolk. Eight years on, it has become more than we ever imagined.
​
The Firs sits on four acres in the village of Cratfield, halfway between the Suffolk coast and the Broads. The buildings — the stables, the cowshed, the old apple press, the tithe barn — were here long before us, and we've worked carefully to keep their character while making them somewhere you'd genuinely want to wake up.
It's still a working garden, still home to our hens, and still the quiet, slow place we fell for. We believe a Suffolk weekend should feel like more than just a stay — and we've built The Firs around exactly that.
We feel privileged that you're considering us, and we hope to welcome you soon.
