Overview
Property code: OC-16AFAW

For a family trip or a getaway with a group of friends, look no further than this beautiful home in Aldeburgh. You’ll be close to the sea, able to explore the town and enjoy the incredible surrounding countryside. So pack your people – and a pet! – and start your holiday.

As you enter the property you’ll find a large kitchen/lounge, perfect for socialising before your day begins. Treat yourself to a delicious coffee from the machine and nibble breakfast on the island unit. Return from adventures to curl up on the sofas, have a chat, watch a film or play a game. For formal dinners, try the dining nook. It’s flooded with natural light from lots of windows and is a great spot for enjoying your food. Head upstairs to find the bedrooms. This property has three, and they’re all comfortable, beautiful and restful. First, there’s a double bedroom with a window seat where you can take a beat with your partner. Next there’s a single room, and finally there’s another double with an en-suite and views to the sea. The garden is paved and has a dining area for sunny evenings, completed by flower beds for a pop of colour.

You’ll be in the centre of Aldeburgh, about 300 metres from the beach. The town is lovely, and you’ll find plenty of places to eat, drink or learn about the local heritage. You can take days out to Snape Marshes (5.5 miles), which is packed with incredible wildlife, or make a picnic and explore Suffolk Coast and Heaths Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (13 miles). Finish your holiday by visiting Leiston Abbey (5.5 miles), a beautiful ruin.

A very clean, comfortable and well equipped cottage in a perfect location. Very easy access to the sea, shops and wonderful cafes and restaurants. Thank you for the welcome pack and for including coffee pods, dishwasher tablets, shampoo etc, which made our arrival so pleasant. The detailed arrival instructions and travel directions made getting intRead moreo the cottage very straightforward. We had lovely walks along to Thorpeness and the Martello Tower, and an excellent meal at Suffolk Sur Mer. We would heartily recommend this property and will definitely be returning. Hide

This house is in a great location (especially for the Cross Keys and chip shop!) and the parking space is a great stress reducer! We stayed for Christmas and had plenty of room for our family of four and a dog. The garden must be an added bonus in sunnier months.

Beautiful house and tastefully furnished. Parking off road was great. Just a short walk to all facilities

There were no forks in the house but you got some to us in just over an hour. The property could have been cleaner. It was quite dusty and some parts were a bit grubby. A 46 double bed is also a bit uncomfortable for two people and a 5 bed could have easily fitted in the rooms. Apart from that, we thought it was a great place to stay.

A modern property with an attractive original frontage, in an excellent location just a few minutes walk from the High St. It has a much sought after parking space on the drive and we noticed an electric car charger ( although we had no need to use this ourselves) as an added bonus. An inviting rear patio area with raised beds and garden furnituRead morere off the lounge would be great to use in warmer weather. Hide

Aldeburgh is a fabulous little seaside town, and Midsomer House was the perfect place to stay to explore it and the surrounding area. Modern, fresh and well equipped, but done with style with nice fabrics and pictures and a lovely little garden at the back to eat in.
