Liked: Great setting to enjoy the beautiful setting of Monewden Airfield.
The A frame we stayed in was excellently equiped, the bathroom was a bonus. The sleeping area was great nook to relax in too. The hosts are incredibly helpful and friendly.
We enjoyed the grass area to play games, watch planes and enjoy the sunrise!

Liked: What a fabulous stay we had! Lisa & Steve are so welcoming. The Pod is beautiful and so well equipped and all the extra touches of blankets, kitchen equipment, tea,coffee etc really made it feel like home from home. The gas bbq was a great bonus to! It Was lovely to see the planes and getting to look in the hanger and chat to the pilots taking their planes up! And having so much space to play on the fields. We will definitely return next year for another relaxing & enjoyable stay. Thank you for your hospitality.

Liked: We were made to feel really welcomed upon arrival.
Extremely quiet location the only guest we had was a random Magpie every morning.
The A frame was clean and very presentable with most of the necessities needed for the stay.
Lots of sockets to charge all the tech we brought with us, even though the child had to learn the art of conversation again because the signal on our phones were very weak and refused to work inside the A frame. Which was a good thing we felt because he had to play and explore.
Would definitely stay again because it’s a stunning location and the owners were really lovely.
Disliked: Only thing we could suggest is a small hand rail on the steps because my mother was slightly unstable on her legs. It would have offered her some reassurance. Though for most people I’m sure this isn’t an issue.

Camping pod (four person, private bathroom amenities)
Liked: The pod is so well kitted out. You've got everything you need to feel at home. Fridge and freezer, hob cooker which was surprisingly powerful, bathroom is compact and comfortable, the bed is comfy. Plenty of electric sockets to charge up devices. The view is lovely and the area is quiet and peaceful. The owners are great and attentive, they even put balloons and a cake at the pod upon realising it was my birthday which was really sweet if them. They had good recommendations for food and eating out. The Cretingham Bell is great for dinner.
A proper gem to stay at and will return again when I'm visiting the area in the future.
Disliked: Only gripe was one of the upper windows high up on the wall isn't curtained, and it's East facing so you get the sun shining right onto where you are sleeping, so if you are light sensitive, take an eye mask. I did mention it to the owners who said they will figure out how to sort that out, so hopefully that will be a good change for when I next return.
