Services
As a family run business we take great pride in what we are offering and do our best to create a unique camping experience. Matt has lived in Suffolk, on the farm (he was born in the farmhouse), for almost all of his life. Only leaving for a few years, to travel and settle briefly in Hertfordshire, before returning to run the family business with his brother.
Every detail has been carefully considered to give you a unique and memorable camping experience - from our large beds with Egyptian cotton bed linen, to the fully equipped kitchen and comfortable seating in the living area. There is also an immaculate shower room and separate flushing WC room. Once you've finished relaxing outdoors and gazing at stars, why not get cosy on the sofa with a good book and glass of wine.
Day visitors are welcome during your stay but you must please inform us prior to their arrival. There is a charge of 4 per visitor (over the age of 18) per day, payable by you or by the visitor. Day visitors are not permitted to stay overnight (unless by prior arrangement - see below) and should vacate the site by 10:00pm.
We are very centrally situated, so many of Suffolk's attractions can be reached in under an hours drive. Listed below are just a few, however a more detailed list can be found in the welcome pack in the lodge. The Owl Sanctuary operates a comprehensive facility for the care and rehabilitation of owls from the region, and the promotion of Owl conservation throughout the UK and beyond.
Ideally situated in mid suffolk along the A1120 Tourist Route, most of Suffolks attractions are within an hours drive of the Lodge. Leave the A14 at junction 51. At the roundabout take the 3rd exit onto the A140 signposted Norwich. Turn right on to the A1120 to Stonham Aspal. Continue for about 1/4 of a mile after you have left the village turning right onto the drive.

We had a wonderful stay at Kaya Lodge. It really is an amazing place, so much more than glamping! The location is lovely, picturesque and peaceful, the tent itself has everything you need for a relaxing stay, especially loved the log burner in the evenings. We are hoping to return, minus the children next time! Thankyou 🙂

We enjoyed our stay at kaya lodge. The bathroom and toilet were amazing for a safari tent. My daughter especially loved the cabin bed which was also great as it dampened out the sound meaning she slept a bit better then the average safari tent. The beds were extremely comfortable and we all slept well. My husband is south african so the little African touches throughout were very welcomed. It was immaculately clean when we arrived and the hosts have done a great job. We would visit again and definitely recommend to others.

We are really enjoying our time at the glamping tent. The kids are loving it and I am sat listening to all the birds singing.
Well we are now home after a lovely couple of days at Kaya Lodge. It was fantastic, we had cold weather but we got a tub of wood for the wood burner that was in the tent, which made it so toastie.
I really can not recommend this glamping tent enough. Julie and Mat are fantastic hosts. If you are reading this then you are interested in booking, you should do it as I don't think there are many free dates.

Group of friends had an amazing weekend getaway trip at this lodge. The place had a lot of space for us to run around as we are an active group. The accommodation was excellent and well equipped for the purpose with beautiful comfortable beds and sufficient cooking equipment and utensils available for us to use during our stay there. Fire pit, bbq grill and a picnic bench made our evenings even more enjoyable. The lodge certainly exceeded our expectation. The host Julie was wonderful, very helpful and accommodating towards requests you may have given that it is reasonable and possible. We will

I cannot praise Twiga at Kaya Lodge and the owners Julie and Matt enough! The lodge's interior was spacious, clean and fully furnished! The fire pit and barbecue in the open greenery outside, were lovely additions to the lodge. As my group were there to celebrate a friend's birthday, I enquired whether they could decorate the lodge a little to make it extra special. Response was quick and very accommodating! They made sure to find out exactly what I had in mind and also even offered to bake a cake! The outcome far exceeded my expectations 🙌🏽. Cannot recommend the beautiful Kaya Lodge Glamping

We had an absolutely amazing weekend at Kaya Logde! It was super relaxing. The owners were extremely kind and helpful. The lodge itself was clean and tidy, we were asked to strip all bedding at the end for the safety of the next residents which was really good considering the coronavirus situation. We were BBQ-ing everyday! We made smores in the wood burning oven. I would seriously recommend this place for a peaceful getaway!

We stayed at Kaya Lodge with our 3yo and 8m and it was a perfect way to 'camp' with young children. Loads of space for them to run/crawl around, fire pit to toast marshmallows and lots of nature to explore- but comfy beds, fridge and hot shower made it feel like a home from home. Baby even slept better than usual! The beach was only a 30 min drive away and definitely worth a visit, but we spent most of our time in the meadow, especially enjoying a drink on the deck in the evening. Julie was really helpful to with lots of advice and answers to our questions. We will definitely return.

We returned home on Sunday from a truely wonderful weekend staying at Kaya Lodge, a luxurious canvas home from home in the most idyllic location. Spacious and quirky Kaya lodge offers such a fun staycation for all the family, we have a 1, 3 and 12 year old and everyone had fun ambling about the meadow, exploring the countryside and then slept amazingly in their luxurious beds (how I'll ever take the little ones camping for real I dont know!!!). With the wonderful hosts and a really reasonable price, I cannot recommend this place enough!!

Thank you for such a wonderful experience. We enjoyed so much family time at Kaya Lodge without interruption of televisions, iPads, etc and got back to the basics of playing games and chatting to each other.… The views from the lodge are stunning and there is so much outside space that was all ours. The lodge itself is really big with 3 separate bedrooms, bathroom, toilet, kitchen/diner and lounge area. Camping done properly we think! The log burner was also a really nice touch for when the sun had gone down and kept the chill out of the air. We made the most of the bbq and fire pit both

This is such a beautiful, peaceful place and really magical for children. Julie, who runs it, has young children herself and knows exactly what you need to make this type of holiday work while keeping it back to basics and simple. The photos on the website really don’t do the tent or location justice, we were really impressed when arrived. We also loved Suffolk and as long as you’re happy to do some driving and exploring there’s a massive range of things to do.

We loved every second of our stay at Kaya Lodge. The beds are amazing and this is totally 5*. The shower (I didn't want to get out of it) and the surrounding area was great for exploring. A BBQ in the evening and a bottle of wine under the sunset was perfect.
Julie and her family are hugely 'family friendly' therefore nothing is too much trouble. The children loved it here and we have already booked our next stay. A little hidden gem in Suffolk - you HAVE to visit!
