Overview
Property code: OC-CLOU

This single-level holiday home is ideally located to explore the Suffolk Coast, with Dunwich Heath and Beach less than 3 miles away boasting an array of rare plant and wildlife, backed by dramatic cliffs. At the end of a day exploring the landscapes, the pretty garden and cosy interiors offer a great place to unwind and spend quality time with your loved ones.

Welcoming you into the property is the open-plan living space where two comfortable sofas offer a place to rest your legs to watch a film on the TV, share stories from the day or sit and read a book. On the other side of the room is a dining table seating six, allowing ample space for the family to gather together to enjoy a home cooked family feast. The kitchen is spacious, with neutral decor and everything you could need to get cooking. Next door is a handy utility room furnished with a washer/dryer if needed. Continuing through the property you’ll find the master bedroom, featuring a sumptuous double bed, calming pastel decor and an en-suite wet room. In addition, there are two charming single bedrooms, suitable for both adults and children. The relaxing bathroom completes the property where you can truly relax in the bathtub.

Dunwich itself offers an abundance of interesting activities, from walks in the forest (5 miles), and a visit to RSPB Minsmere (3 miles), to a look back in time at the local museum (3 miles) where you can learn of stories of ‘the city lost to sea’. Those in search of adventure can make for the coast to walk a stretch of the Suffolk Coast Path and you will not be disappointed. Take the route from Dunwich Beach (3 miles) to Southwold (8 miles) where you can experience the charm of this quintessential British seaside town with its beautiful beach huts and picturesque pier.

We had a wonderful week, the weather was good and we walked for miles over Westleton Common and Heath as well as all around RSPB Minsmere and Dunwich Heath - no need to go anywhere else apart from Saxmundham for supplies. As in previous visits we were warm and comfortable in the cottage, which is spacious. It's a pity more guests don't fill the bRead moreird feeders as there weren't many visits from birds or the squirrels. Hoping to come again next year. Hide

We are seasoned holiday cottage renters (some 30+ years' worth) and so we found the cottage is functional but we had the impression that the owner/agent were not going the extra mile to make it comfortable rather than just functional eg poor TV set up on a table that was perilously unstable, a mish mash of kitchen crockery etc etc. A little bit moRead morere effort and it would have been much better. All really summed up by the "Guests comment book" ie bog standard notebook - and with no entries for several months. Hide

A comfortable, quiet and generally well equipped bungalow in a lovely location with fantastic walks from the door. The garden was lovely - well tended at the front and attractively natural at the back.

This was our third visit to this lovely cottage with its unusual and interesting garden, although the first time at this time of year. It did not disappoint and we feel it was one of the best holidays we've had - lots of walking on Westleton Heath, Dunwich Heath and RSPB Minsmere. The weather was kind and we were very comfortable at the cottage. Read more Despite the bird feeders in the garden it seems that not many visitors bother to fill the feeders as we didn't see as many birds on the feeders as we expected. Interesting to see a muntjac deer in the garden more than once. We'll be back - thank you for letting us stay here. Hide

Peaceful location just outside a pretty village, but good road connections to many places of interest. Comfortable beds and other furniture, well-equipped kitchen. Surrounded by a large garden with good furniture.

Generally very good. Spacious and light, comfortable beds, good location. Wet room badly designed - whole floor becomes wet -> have to mop & dry floor before you can use the toilet or washbasin. House cold and feeling damp when we arrived, but warmed up by next day after heating came on. Poor selection of crockery, random mix of bowls. No sign on Read morehouse to say no. 1 or White Clouds - need to update directions. Hide

The welcome basket was much appreciated. The beds and sofas were very comfortable and the kitchen was well equipped but the bathroom and wetroom were awful. They look very good but they do not work. Not having a shower over the bath meant that everyone had to use the en suite to shower. The water in the shower in the wetroom had to be run for aboutRead more 5 minutes to get any hot water. That is an awful waste of drinking water. Then the flow was just a trickle. It made washing your hair quite difficult. After using the shower it left the wetroom unusable as it took more than 6 hours to dry out. The TV is from a different era and needs to be updated. Hide
