Overview
Property code: OC-AATHEH

This lovely home is perfect for a family of four or a group of friends looking for a peaceful break exploring the Suffolk coast. Fabulous open-plan living provides an ideal space to socialise together, and a quaint patio garden is a fabulous spot to enjoy a morning coffee.

Heading inside, you will find yourself in the wonderful and welcoming lounge/diner/kitchen. Rustle up tasty meals in the well-equipped kitchen, enjoy eating together around the dining table, before settling down on the sofas and getting cosy for an evening in front of the TV. The first of the two bedrooms is situated on the ground floor; it has twin beds and its own seating area with TV, and an en-suite shower room. Upstairs is the second bedroom containing a double bed, and a stylish family bathroom. There is also a study space on the landing with a desk and storage space should you need to get stuck into some work on your stay. Outside are two patio spaces with garden furniture, a handy drying room with changing facilities, and space to store bikes or water sports gear.

The pretty village of Reydon is situated just 1.5 miles from the bustling seaside town of Southwold, though you will find a useful shop 500 metres away to pick up any bits you need. Southwold has a range of eateries, as well as a fabulous pier brimming with food outlets, shop, and attractions. Spend days sunning yourself on the sandy Southwold Beach (2 miles) and take to the water on surfboards or paddleboards.

I would highly recommend a stay at the Headmasters House. The accommodation is both spacious and compact making for a very comfortable stay and it is very well equipped. The cottage is ideally located for walking into Southwold or just to the Randolph for a drink or Sunday lunch. Being able to park right outside the cottage is very handy. HaviRead moreng a separate bathroom for each bedroom is fantastic. Altogether a perfect base for exploring this part of Suffolk. Hide

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the cottage. It was comfortable and very welcoming, as well as being well equipped. We particularly enjoyed being able to sit outside in the evening, but felt the garden, while beautiful, was a tad overgrown and needed a bit if a trim.

A well thought out and comfortable cottage. We very much enjoyed our stay. Easy walk to a local shop and a short drive to the delights of Southwold. Close to the A12 for ease of access to other popular locations. The cottage is very well equipped and we found the layout perfect for our needs.

The cottage needs an overhaul and requires urgent updating. The photos are a misrepresentation of the actual state of the cottage. Its grubby, tired and needs to have a pairing down of furniture, its cramped and the space hasnt been well utilised.We were supposed to have 2 car parking spaces but others parked in them sometimes right it front of ourRead more gate. The location of the cottage is good. Hide

Very warm, well equipped bungalow. Was surprised it was on a modern estate & not the cottage we expected. Bed was extremely hard. Nice little enclosed garden for the dog & very quiet area.

Well laid ouRead moret inside & two bathrooms always nice. Hide
