Strenneth has been a family run Bed and Breakfast for the past 40 years and the owners Paul and Yolly have been your hosts for the 23 of those years. The wonder of a farmhouse built in circa 1550 will soon enchant you. The area has many local historical features and buildings and much of the adjacent land is owned by the Duke of Norfolk. If you are interested in wildlife we have hares, owls and deer in abundance. Redgrave Fen is only 2 miles away and has many species of bird and up to 75 species have been recorded in one day. You can expect to see Hares, Roe Deer and Barn Owls in the nearby fields. Strenneth is dog friendly but dogs cannot be left in the accommodation unattended at any time.

Booking directly by phone or using the booking application on our web site is always cheaper than using a Booking Agent.

We also have been growing Sweet Peas since 2016. From mid-May to August we expect the flowers to be in full bloom, when guests are more than welcome to take a look. Of historical importance the house sits on the perimeter of Fersfield Airfield. During the Second World War this was a top secret airfield. Joseph Patrick Kennedy who was the elder brother of President John F. Kennedy was stationed at Fersfield when he lost his life. Hotel Cancellation Policy 50 GBP is normally taken on booking. If cancelled within 7 days of booking this is refundable. Cancellation between 7-2 days of the first night will be charged in full. If cancelled after the full cost may be charged.

Strenneth is in a rural farming location where the stars can be seen at night. It is quiet, most times. We grow a lot of Sweet Peas and the guests are able to see what we do from germination of seeds, planting, and finally picking the seed pods, cleaning and packing.
