Situated in the historic village of Westleton, this characterful property makes a lovely holiday home for couples and smaller families looking for a relaxing getaway within easy reach of the coast. Perfect for walkers, nature lovers and history buffs exploring Suffolk’s beautiful countryside, historic sites and quaint seaside resorts, the beautifully decorated redbrick cottage has been stylishly updated and tastefully furnished throughout. Offering cosy accommodation for up to four guests, this cheerful retreat features timber beams, a welcoming wood burner, exposed brickwork and a delightful garden.

The cottage offers a wonderfully relaxing, characterful lounge with a wood burner set in an impressive brick fireplace, providing a lovely space for everyone to get together to plan the next day’s activities or sit back and watch a movie. The light, spacious kitchen/diner has stable doors, brick flooring, plenty of equipment and a sweet dining area in the corner with bench seating. You will also find the first of the cottage’s three charming, wood-beamed bedrooms on the ground floor: a pretty single room. The cottage-style stairs are a little steep and lead up to the first floor where you will find a bathroom and two bedrooms: one with a standard double bed, and one with a smaller 4’ bed, suitable for one guest. Outside, the mature lawned garden expands over one third of an acre, and features a cheerful patio area with a BBQ and outdoor furniture, making a lovely spot to sit out in the sun on a summer’s day.

Westleton has a friendly pub, tea room and a village green, with miles of rural walks for you to enjoy. The coast is within easy reach, with Dunwich, Aldeburgh and Southwold all within 9 miles.

The cottage is a very characterful and a lovely experience to stay in. The steps are steep and deep, so not suitable for anyone with infirmity. The village is only a short drive from coastal resorts which we were glad of as our week was during the hot spell of the last week in June. We also visited Sutton Hoo and Framlingham castle, both not faRead morer and lovely days out. Hide
