Looking for a naked stay? Just ask.
We’re two guys recently retired and we’ve bought a big house in the countryside to welcome guests from around the world. We’d like you to come and enjoy a relaxing time. Michael in particular enjoys meeting people - he is a great host and very much a people person. John cooks the breakfasts, manages the business side of things and enjoys a nudist lifestyle when appropriate. He says clothing is optional, naked is better. But it’s not compulsory.

Bury St Edmunds is one of East Anglias jewels, boasting historic buildings and some wonderful restaurants.

John and Michael are wonderful hosts, The Rectory is simply stunning set in a wonderful location, our room was beautiful and every little detail had been considered to make our stay comfortable. John had baked fresh cake and we were offered this along with tea when we arrived, Breakfast was divine and they catered for my partners dietary requirements. We were made to feel so welcome, they were hosts when we arrived but friends by the time we left. We will be going back.

Wow! What a stunning property in a lovely area. Attention to detail is what this place is all about. Both John and Michael were fabulous hosts. They welcomed me with a lovely cup of tea, they also were helpful in giving me advice on the local area. The room was lovely and exceptionally clean with a very comfortable bed. This place does not disappoint. Would absolutely stay again!

A short break in a wonderful location! A large house and garden beautifully maintained; lots of attention to detail. John and Michael are considerate and excellent hosts. Very generous with their time and good knowledge of local things to do and see. This is a country retreat so a car is essential to get to and from this location.

What a fantastic spot. Feels like its in the country but close enough to the town Bury St Edmonds. Great place to get away from London for a weekend. John and Michael were super accommodating. Awesome breakfast. Will be back again for sure.

Everything about The Rectory was perfect. From the warm and friendly welcome and on-going service offered by both Michael and John to the spotlessly clean room and house to the absolute attention to detail in everything they do. A lovely, peaceful location too. Our highest recommendations!
