Windmill Lodges is the perfect holiday destination for
couples, families or groups of friends as we offer fully-equipped self-catering
accommodation in gorgeous log cabins that are furnished to the highest
standards. For those of you who enjoy trying new and adventurous things, here
we have highlighted some of the exciting places to visit around our stunning
lodges. If you are visiting our log cabins to celebrate something special, such
as a birthday or anniversary, then these activities are sure to make your short
breaks in Suffolk something to remember.
Adnams
Brewery
For an informative and interesting tour around one of
Britain’s most famous breweries, why not visit Adnams Brewery and Distillery? For
obvious reasons these tours are for the over 18s only, but they make a fantastic
day out for couples or groups of friends. These tours run daily and take about
one hour, and are followed by a tutored beer tasting session which lasts 30
minutes. Following this you will be able to go to the Adnams Cellar and Kitchen
Store, where you can try a selection of their products – and collect a free
bottle of beer! The tour costs just £12 per person, and is only a 40 minute
drive from our scenic lodges.
Go Ape at
Thetford Forest
Go Ape is perfect for families looking to try something
different, as you get to climb up to 12 metres in the sky. For those who prefer
to keep their feet on the ground, they have Segways available for you to
navigate your way around the forest. Go Ape was the winner of the Suffolk
Tourism Awards for the Best Tourism Experience in 2011, so is most definitely
worth visiting with your young ones. This takes just over an hour to drive to
from our lodges, so we advise that you plan to spend the whole day there to
make the most of it.
Oasis Camel
Park
Oasis Camel Park is perfect for animal lovers of all ages,
and is the only specialist camel park in the UK. Here they host daily camel
information talks, photo sessions and even training sessions. For an extra
charge they are available to ride, along with donkeys and llamas. This is just
a 25 minute drive from our complex and costs only £7.95 for adults. It closes
on the 1st November, but will reopen again in March, so if you come
to stay with us again next year it will be well worth visiting.
Beacon
Rally Karts
Suitable for anyone over the age of five, Beacon Rally Karts
allows adults and juniors to experience an exciting off-road journey. Here they
have 3 different sized tracks to suit all ages, ranging from 150 metres to 570
metres. To visit Beacon Rally Karts from your lodge it will only take 25
minutes, so it is the ideal place to go for those not wanting to travel too
far.
Discover
Newmarket
If you are interested in horse racing then Newmarket is a
wonderful place for you to visit, and is just an hour’s drive away. Discover
Newmarket offers the opportunity to go for a behind the scenes tour to see the
horses and to learn more about how they are trained and brought up. Here they
have many different types of tours, one of the best being their National Stud
Tour, where you can see the foals, mares and stallions.
Sailing
Barge Cruises
There are numerous cruises available within a short drive
from our lodges which can guide you through the beautiful rivers of East
Anglia. Perfect for a romantic getaway, you can even have a 5* dinner on some
of the cruises, whilst admiring the sunset. Some of these cruise boats are
available to hire for private events, so you can even host your own party while
sailing with them.
