Fabulous cottage, photos dont do it justice. Have stayed in other locations around Southwold but this was both central and quiet. Loved that we could lock the TV away. The second bedroom, double has limited head height, our teen bumped his head numerous times, could be more of an issue if two people in the room. Great having an ensuite and downstaiRead morers toilet. Rayburn took a bit of getting used to cooking on but instructions were clear and helpful and it was great! Overall great cottage and would stay again. Hide

Accommodation was lovely and the property was a short walk to the beach. Stairs quite steep so downstairs toilet appreciated. Would stay there again. Very cosy and comfortable. The welcome pack was a pleasant surprise.
