With restrictions hindering the prospects of a trip abroad in the summer holidays this year, a staycation is the next best thing. Luckily for us, there are plenty of incredible places to go in the UK with an abundance of beautiful destinations and picturesque locations right on our doorstep.

Mr and Mrs Windmill are excited to be included as an inspirational build on the Great British Home Restoration (Episode 2 : Sunday 1st August 2021)

Suffolk is one of the most untouched counties in England with parts of it still relatively undiscovered so if you are looking to get away from it all, it could be the place for you.

It is bursting with natural beauty. It has three outstanding nature reserves brimming with rare wildlife but the jewel in the Suffolk crown has to be the 50 mile stretch of heritage coastline which, lying in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, is completely unspoiled.

Fancy staying in a windmill? There’s an adults-only one for hire in deepest Suffolk. Set at the end of owner Natalie’s garden, it’s an impressive-looking structure that was one of the last built in England. Today, the millstone and machinery have made way for furniture and TVs cleverly curved to fit the building.

Nestled in Suffolk’s beautiful countryside, The Windmill Suffolk is the perfect retreat for a unique and luxurious holiday. Having stood empty and deteriorating for many decades, the owners have lovingly restored the windmill back to its glory days and now takes pride of place in this spectacular landscape.

If you’re a fan of quirky accommodation, you’ll love our round-up of unusual places to stay in the UK.

From fairytale castles, to a beach house on its own private island, and an old American school bus with a VW camper bedroom on the roof, these are our favourites.

Enjoy a sublime stay in the most scenic or settings in this astounding adults-only boutique windmill. Whether you are looking for a romantic hideaway, or for fun filled time off with friends there really is no place like the Windmill Suffolk.

Why not go completely off course and opt for a stay in a 19th-century windmill? Luxurious yet incredibly quirky, The Windmill in Lavenham combines futuristic design with traditional architecture. It’s got keypad entry and a marble free-standing bath, but the piece de resistance is the top-floor POD lounge, with awe-inspiring views over the Suffolk countryside. There’s even an external balcony for stargazing or for simply enjoying the sunset with a glass of bubbly.

You’ll be swept away to the height of luxury at The Windmill Suffolk – a glorious towering bolthole as seen on George Clarke’s ‘Amazing Spaces’ and 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.

Natalie is here to tell her incredible story of how she, and her husband Steve, fell in love with Suffolk from just one visit back in 2007, and how they threw all of their time and passion into renovating an historic derelict windmill transforming it into award-winning, state of the art, exclusive boutique accommodation. Here to tell us more about their remarkable experiences and what to expect from your stay at The Windmill, Suffolk is Natalie Roberts AKA Mrs Windmill!
