Martley Hall is a world-class equestrian estate combining heritage, luxury and privacy—137 acres of Suffolk parkland, outstanding facilities, and a beautifully restored moated country house.



About this house
A Magnificent 137-Acre Equestrian Estate steeped in history and set within rolling parkland, Martley Hall is an elegant country estate with world-class equestrian facilities. Dating back to the Domesday Book, its moated setting and Arts & Crafts grandeur create an atmosphere of timeless beauty seamlessly blended with modern luxury. Beyond the moat, the estate unfolds with immaculate gardens, rolling paddocks, and beautifully designed outdoor spaces. A crinkle-crankle wall, an architectural rarity, winds its way around the grounds—a striking feature that adds both charm and a sense of history.

At the heart of the estate lies Martley Hall Stud, a renowned family-run equestrian facility offering exceptional training and breeding amenities. The centrepiece is an Olympic-sized indoor arena, measuring 62m A x 24m with an Equestrian Surface, designed for year-round. The facilities also include 31 boxes, an outdoor arena, a covered horse walker, and all-weather turnout paddocks.

Designed with professional equestrianism in mind, the yard features heated foaling boxes with CCTV, a veterinary suite, a stallion pen, and grooms’ accommodation. A spacious entertaining suite with a viewing gallery, offices, and a commercial kitchen provides a professional setting for events.

The gardens and landscaping, designed by Luke Haydon Gardens, are another highlight of the estate. The Walled Garden has been meticulously restored to create a private sanctuary while also being an exceptional space for entertaining. It features pétanque courts, a croquet lawn, and an indoor pool complex with a bar, sauna, steam room, and treatment suite. Each year, the pétanque courts come alive with a spirited competition among family and friends, making the garden as much a place for fun as it is for retreat.

The estate also offers four separate en-suite guest rooms, beautifully arranged around an Italian-style courtyard, providing a peaceful retreat for visitors. Additionally, four charming cottages, ranging from one to two bedrooms, offer further accommodation—ideal for extended family, guests, or staff.

Approached via a bridge over the moat, the six-bedroom main house is a masterpiece of craftsmanship, where period charm meets modern convenience. Leaded windows, limestone floors, and exposed oak beams sit alongside smart home technology and a climate-controlled
wine cellar, seamlessly blending history with contemporary comfort. Adding to its rich heritage, artefacts from the demolished Easton Park mansion (1924) were relocated to Martley Hall, including the fire surround in the dining room, preserving a tangible link to the past.

Grand reception rooms flow effortlessly into a bespoke kitchen with views over the moat and beyond, while the boot room, gym, and conservatory ensure effortless country living. A rare fusion of heritage, luxury and equestrian excellence, Martley Hall stands as one of the finest country estates in the South East of England. Here, history, craftsmanship, and world-class facilities come together in perfect harmony.
