Win an eight-person stay at The Cartshed with CoolStays

Unwind at this blissful property in the heart of Suffolk

We’re now a week into January – which means you must be thinking about your next holiday. And how better to get away from the stresses of the city than by rounding up a group of friends and heading to the country?

We’ve teamed up with CoolStays, the British travel company helping connect you with more than 1,800 of the world’s most unusual and exciting places to stay, to offer one lucky reader the chance to win a two-night stay at the beautiful Cartshed in Suffolk for up to eight people.

One of eight elegant properties on the expansive Wilderness Reserve, The Cartshed dates back to the 19th Century and has been lovingly restored into the perfect rental for old-fashioned country retreats. Boasting four bedrooms and four bathrooms, as well as a large living area, open plan kitchen and well-equipped outdoor spaces, its blend of classic charm and modern conveniences makes it the ideal home for a get-together.

Of course, Wilderness Reserve also offers more than 4,500 acres of wild meadows, woodland, open field and freshwater streams to explore. Pull on your hiking boots and don your binoculars to take in the local wildlife or take advantage of the many outdoor pursuits the estate has to offer, including clay pigeon shooting, tennis and enjoy a day out in the rowing boats. There’s also an open air swimming pool with in-built hot tub from which to enjoy the incredible views.

Sound like your kind of holiday? Enter by filling out the form below before 23 January 2020 — good luck!
