Get ready for a family holiday in Aldeburgh. This 18th-century property would suit a small group and their dog as a lovely base from which to enjoy the numerous activities offered by the town and surrounding area.

Upon entering the cottage, you’ll find a lounge with a coal-effect gas fire for those nippy evenings when you need a cosy place to relax. Enjoy your meals in the dining room, and notice the exposed beams, a relic of the building’s past. The kitchen, with its rustic flagstone floor, is ideally sized for your group and has everything you need for cooking up feasts or organising picnics. Head up the curved cottage-style staircase to find the bedrooms and a family bathroom. There’s a twin and a double, both comfortable and perfect for a good night’s rest. On sunny days, relax in the front garden sitting at the bistro set of garden furniture, or in the courtyard with the garden furniture and relaxers provided. You’ll have a gas BBQ for tasty treats, too.

Aldeburgh is a lovely spot for a holiday. The beach is about 200 metres away, and you can amble along it to spot the giant scallop sculpture. There are plenty of places selling fresh fish and chips, so you can take food to nibble on while you sit on the sand. You’ll see boutiques and art galleries around the town to explore. Thorpeness is 2 miles away and also worth a visit, plus you can walk along the beach to arrive. Alternatively, try the opposite direction to find the Snape Footpath (0.5 miles) which has gorgeous views and offers a wonderful walking tour of the region.

  • 2 bedrooms – 1 double, 1 twin
  • 1 bathroom with shower over the bath
  • Electric hob and oven, fridge/freezer, microwave, dishwasher, and washing machine
  • Open fire in lounge

We had the most wonderful holiday at Dart Cottage. It is in a fabulous location, with wonderful restaurants within minutes of the front door and the beach 5 minutes stroll away. The cottage has everything you need for a comfortable stay and felt the cottage was the perfect size for a couple with 2 labradors.

Stayed at this property last year and was impressed enough to return this year. Location on the High Street is excellent and the refurbishment of the gas fire has added the final touch.

This is a fantastic location and the ability to park 3 cars in the drive is a huge bonus. It has great access to the beach and everything Aldeburgh has to offer. Like other properties in the centre of Aldeburgh we found it to be very warm at night, with little air circulation. Fans are provided to help with this.

We had a very enjoyable stay and the cottage was very comfortable as indicated in my scores. A couple of issues however being ithat the gas fire in the sitting room could'nt be lit and the kitchen window could "use" a blind for privacy as it was somewhat disconcerting to find people staring in both in the daytime and at night. This was due to the pRead moreroximity of the cottage to the town steps. Hide

A simply lovely comfortable cottage in the heart of Aldeburgh. The cottage is surprisingly large and comes with the bonus of off street parking. Everything you could want for a home away from home.
