One of the most unique places to stay in Bury St Edmunds and Beyond is The Windmill Suffolk and its stunning design features on George Clarke’s Amazing Spaces on Channel 4 tomorrow (Wednesday 1 July) at 9pm.

Natalie and Steve Roberts bought the derelict windmill after seeing the farmhouse, granary and the windmill for sale in a newspaper when they visited Suffolk in 2008 for Bury St Edmunds Christmas Fayre.

The Windmill Suffolk is excited to be included as an inspirational build on George Clarke’s Amazing Spaces (Series 9 Episode 3).

The staycation doubled as a working break for Natalie and Steve, as they repainted everything from the internal walls to the trellis outside.  

Steve also put his green fingers and building ability to good use, creating a new garden space for guests to enjoy, and crafting new fencing, steps, and even a stone circle to house their brand-new patio benching.

During downtime, they revelled in all the things that make The Windmill different from being at home, such as showers-with-a-view, and soaking in the huge bathtub.

You’ll be swept away to the height of luxury at The Windmill Suffolk – a glorious towering bolthole overlooking idyllic countryside, just two miles north of historic Lavenham. From a romantic break for two, to a memorable retreat for four, The Windmill Suffolk promises utter indulgence, sublime scenery and the chance to unwind in this adults-only, beautifully converted windmill.

This is gloriously luxurious; an adults only bolt-hole that promises lazy mornings, gentle walks and al fresco suppers in a secluded garden. The unique POD living space on the upper floor gives panoramic views across the countryside from its own, private veranda.

The perfect mini-moon destination to recharge your batteries after the craziness of your wedding day, The Windmill Suffolk is an opulent retreat, under an hour’s drive away. Overlooking idyllic countryside, two miles north of historic Lavenham, The Windmill is packed with character and oozes extravagance, with plush fabrics and furniture throughout.

What better way to appreciate a view than to get high up above it?

There aren’t many holiday properties that afford such luxury. But then The Windmill Suffolk isn’t your average holiday property.

Ok, the name gives the game away a little, but not a lot, because what the owners of this structure have created from this former windmill is pretty non-traditional.

Winter is the ideal season to enjoy a weekend break in Bury St Edmunds; and it’s perfect for couples too – with boutique hotels, award-winning restaurants, great shopping, country pubs with roaring fires and miles of countryside to explore.

Every week thousands of firms describe themselves in one tweet to the former Dragons Den star – who then retweets his six favourite the next evening.
