Everything. Never been greeted by the host offering and making me a cup of tea before. AND cake too. Love that there was only two bunks in the room when 4 would have been possible but overcrowded

    “How modern but also rustic it is. Perfect amount of space. The area the property is in also ties in as it’s very quiet so if you want a nice quiet place to stay for a night or two this is the place.”

    “Andrew's communication was excellent. I was arriving later than expected and nothing was too much trouble for him. My stay was pleasant, straightforward and stress-free. I'd definitely return!”

Hikers & Bikers Refuge offers the only dorm accommodation in Ipswich. We offer friendly, basic & clean place to stay where you can expect to meet like minded travellers. Our dorm room sleeps a maximum of 4 guests, with the use of a shared bathroom (bath and shower) & kitchen. Self serve continental breakfast is included so help yourself at your convenience. A cooked breakfast is available by request for an extra tenner. The room has a TV & each bed has an allocated locker, please remember a padlock if you wish to lock your valuables up. We run this along side our private rooms at East of Ipswich Bed & Breakfast.
Hi I’m Andrew, I like to welcome & enjoy meeting new people. I open my home to travellers as a refuge during cycle & walking expeditions, I hope you feel right at home. I live in a separate self contained flat at the property with my partner Araya, you may see us about the property and garden. I try to be there to welcome you, but if for some reason I can't I will send you instructions to help with checking in & finding your bed.
We are in between Ipswich & Woodbridge in the parish to Rushmere St. Andrew. We are just 2 miles from the A14 and the bus stop is opposite us with access to the main towns & train station on Route 66. Close by we have a couple of take away shops, golf course, hospital and a little further away the beautiful River Deben and market town of Woodbridge. We are in a great location to explore Suffolk's coast & countryside.
