Win a FREE Break on a Holiday Cottage Barge !!!

Here’s your chance to WIN a FREE Break aboard a beautiful Holiday Cottage Barge as we launch our new brand!

Yes, a completely FREE BREAK aboard Twee Gebroeders, a Holiday Cottage Barge, moored in Woodbridge, Suffolk is waiting for you if you’re the lucky winner picked out of our hat in this simple competition!

We are absolutely over the moon to be able to bring you news of the expansion of our Suffolk Holiday Cottage business, with not one Holiday Cottage Barge, but TWO!!!!

We have developed a fabulous reputation over the last 8 years at Woodfarm Barns, for providing luxury, dog-friendly holiday cottages in the heart of rural Suffolk. And as our biggest problem is that we often don’t have enough cottages, we have taken the business to the water!

Please have a good look around this website after you’ve entered the competition, share it with your friends and please Like & Share on Facebook 0r Follow and RT on Twitter. You’ll have to do this to enter the competition anyway.

We have purchased two historic Dutch sailing barges, dating back to 1897 and 1899 respectively. They are both moored so you won’t have to learn to sail! Because of their weight though, you’ll hardly know you’re afloat when the tide come in!

Onderneming, or ‘Enterprise’ in English, is a huge 100ft ‘Klipper’ class, lovingly converted into a holiday cottage barge, which has three double bedrooms, three bathrooms and two kitchen/dining/lounge saloons, one in the large former wheelhouse and one in the cargo hold, with so many original features, as well as a kids den!. She is moored at Pin Mill, a tiny hamlet on the River Orwell and offers the perfect peaceful getaway for families or groups of friends. Sleeps 6-8.

Twee Gebroeders, or ‘Two Brothers’ when translated from Dutch is a ‘Skutjse’ class, and no expense has been spared transforming this 64ft vessel into the most romantic holiday cottage barge.

She has an open kitchen/dining/lounge saloon area, with a cast iron stove, a double cabin and a twin cabin, as well as a luxurious shower room and the most beautiful chrome portholes throughout. She is moored at the quayside in Woodbridge, a quaint maritime town on the River Deben and she is ideal for a romantic escape for two, or for a small family. Sleeps 2-4.

Please do check them both out on our Gallery tab as the interiors are simply stunning!!!
