The living area has a television above the fireplace, with a comfy sofa and chairs to relax in.
There is strong WiFi signal available, which you are able to switch off if you wish to disconnect completely.

There is a utility room, perfect for muddy boots, with a washer and dryer.
To respect our other guests, we ask that a maximum of two dogs stay in the lodge and sleep in the utility (and in their crates if you have them) and request they do not go on the beds please. There are two allocated parking spaces for Oak Lodge, with extra visitors spaces too. There is a comfy patio seating area which is ideal for BBQs, please bring your own charcoal.
Welhams Meadow is surrounded by the family farm, there are lots of public footpaths on the farm which are perfect for long walks. The two lakes are stocked with fish - mainly carp, roach and perch, and if you have a fishing licence you are more than welcome to fish here. Each lodge has a club permit for guests to use, issued by the Gipping Valley Angling Club who oversee the fish management of the lakes.
Please be aware that if you have small children they will need to be supervised as the lakes are not fenced off. Welhams Meadow is a three acre site for you to enjoy, but please respect the privacy of the guests staying in the other lodge.
My daughter Georgie and I live 300 metres up the road at the farmhouse, so we will be available to help if there are any issues. At the other end of the village is the community-run pub, the Punch Bowl. It has a great atmosphere, especially in the evenings and at weekends. Also the French chef there serves delicious food for you to enjoy!
Needham Market is full of character and less than a 10 minute drive away. Alder Carr Farm shop is ideal for a coffee and homemade cake, or a light lunch with a farm shop and a handful of small independent retail shops. Needham Lake is great and the Duck and Teapot cafe is very dog and family friendly. Lavenham is stunning historical landmark in the heart of Suffolk and famous for it's architecture as it's the most complete medieval town in England.
Bury St Edmunds is less than a 30 minutes drive away and has been recently voted a top destination to visit in the country by the Sunday Times!
