Perfect location only marred by the weddings. If youre early to bed people this is probably not the best accommodation but we were aware before we booked.

Great location opposite the beach and walkable to the Dolphin pub and Thorpeness Kitchen. The house is really comfortable for 2 adults and 2 teenagers plus a Labrador! It was a bit cold over Easter but the heaters did the job keeping the property warm, and the sun streams through the windows to the sea views. Kitchen was well equipped and applianceRead mores easy to use, beds are comfy & the shower nice & hot. We had a lovely long weekend and would certainly stay again. Hide

2 Truman Lodge is a very nice, comfortable apartment in a good location but if you are looking for a quiet retreat this property may not be suitable. It is attached to the Country Club which holds functions (even in the winter) which can include loud music until late as we experienced in January.

The accommodation is tucked away in a beautiful part of coastal Suffolk. There is an excellent pub and cafe within walking distance or you have all the facilities to hand to cook - we saw the local supermarket delivery truck arriving a few times. Highly recommend.
