The Silos, Framlingham

Your Unforgettable Suffolk Escape

The Silos represent a genuinely extraordinary bit of Suffolk accommodation. What were once simple grain silos have been brilliantly transformed by award-winning visual artist John Christie into something you won't find anywhere else. The circular rooms create a surprisingly spacious feeling, with thoughtful design that makes brilliant use of the unique architecture. The living silo houses a comfortable living area centred around a warming wood burner, while the sleeping silo features a sumptuous super-king bed positioned to make the most of the countryside views. Art lovers will appreciate the original works dotted throughout – pieces by Sonia Delauney, Eduardo Paolozzi and William Kentridge add genuine cultural value to your stay. While you're tucked away in peaceful countryside, you're just five minutes from Framlingham's excellent pubs, cafes and its magnificent castle. The best of both worlds, really – total tranquility when you want it, with market town amenities just down the road. Whether you're curled up by the wood burner with a glass of wine or having breakfast at the bistro set in your private garden, The Silos offer something utterly different from the standard holiday cottage. If you're after a truly memorable Suffolk break that you'll be telling friends about for years to come, these converted grain silos should be top of your list.
