Warren Lodges on the edge of Minsmere in Suffolk - secluded location

Would you like to get away the hustle and bustle of life? Warren Lodges on the edge of the Minsmere Marshes in Suffolk will be a novel experience and real treat for you.  The track to the lodges takes you away from the tarmac roads into the countryside looking out over the woodlands of the RSPB Minsmere bird reserve. The lodges themselves are surrounded by grass so you step out onto grass and get away from all that concrete and cars which are kept 25-50 yards from the lodges. These timber lodges are well equipped to ensure a comfortable stay at any time of year.  

Marsh harriers, barn owls kestrels and sparrow hawks hunt regularly over the surrounding land, skylarks and nightingales can be heard in the season, and many rare and interesting birds can be seen at the nearby RSPB Minsmere reserve. Rabbits share the hollow, and deer can sometimes be seen at dawn and dusk. Theberton village has a historic thatched church, with round tower, and two thatched cottages among its varied houses.  Take a look at Warren lodges now.  Each lodge accommodates 4 people. Large groups of up to 16 or so, are welcome.
