Discover the allure of this charming terraced cottage that’s perfect for a family getaway to the popular seaside town of Southwold. With a cosy living room featuring an electric fire and a suntrap courtyard garden, this welcome home is ready and waiting, whatever the weather or time of the year.

Step inside and sink into the comfort of the sitting room, where comfortable sofas await, complemented by the electric fire to provide extra warmth during winter evenings. Unleash your culinary skills in the well-appointed kitchen, then gather around the farmhouse-style table to enjoy a delightful meal together. There’s also a convenient ground-floor cloakroom. On the first floor, you’ll find three inviting bedrooms. Two of the bedrooms feature king-size beds, while the third bedroom is a fun-filled bunk room that children will adore. The stylish family bathroom completes the internal layout. Outside, unwind in the enclosed patio garden, furnished with a table and chairs, creating a lovely space to enjoy a morning coffee as you plan your day's adventures.

Located close to Southwold Common and the vibrant heart of town, immerse yourself in the local charm as you explore the range of retail offerings, cafes, pubs and restaurants. The Grade II-listed lighthouse stands nearby, and the promenade beckons, inviting you to take leisurely strolls along the beachfront. Follow the nearby footpath leading down to the picturesque harbour, where you can embark on a summer foot ferry journey to the neighbouring village of Walberswick, cherished by many for its fun-filled crabbing opportunities and pristine beaches. Further afield, Benacre National Nature Reserve (5.5 miles) and the RSPB’s Minsmere Reserve (11.5 miles) are a haven for birds and wildlife enthusiasts alike.

Sandpiper is an excellent family sized property in the heart of the village, within an easy walk of the beach and amenities, we come back each year just for those reasons.

This is the third time that we have booked the same property. It is spacious and in a great location - we love it. The team at Suffolk Secrets are wonderful and even helped us out when we left a bag behind in the property!

No real complaint on cleanliness other than a lot of the crockery was not as clean as Id expect, perhaps the dish washer needs an overhaul? Well be back Im sure, always a great stay at Sandpiper

Really lovely stay, but my sister rented the property opposite for less money, which actually seemed nicer. However, ours did have 3 bedrooms and hers 2. We did generally have a lovely stay. The location was perfect.
