The Lodge is a beautiful home that provides ideal accommodation for a multi-generational group. It was our first stay in Walberswick and we loved every moment. The children (big and small!) and dogs were so happy playing in the garden. The house is brilliantly equipped and has so many beautiful features. We very much hope to stay again.

This is our second visit. We would visit again as the house is well located and suits our needs with extended family. It is a very private and quiet area which also suits us and the walks for dogs are excellent. The weather contributed to an overall very pleasant stay.

The Lodge is a wonderful venue for a family get together. We were a group of 8 adults, 2 children, 2 babies, plus dog. Note that you need to bring the usual equipment for babies (cot, highchair etc) as none is provided but we knew this in advance. Otherwise the house is well equipped and very comfortable. It was great to be so near to the beach, puRead morebs, Co-op, deli and seafood eateries. We made good use of our bikes too, cycling to Southwold and Dunwich. The garden was appreciated by all. Overall, a very enjoyable week in a wonderful house. Hide

The Lodge was perfect for our multi generational family; grandparents, parents and 4 children ages 2, 3 & 7. It provided a wonderful base for exploring Walberswick and the surrounding area. Near to The Anchor pub the Black Dog Deli, small Co-op, tea rooms, gift shops, village green, car parks and ferry. It is tucked away down a small lane so very pRead moreeaceful. Although the garden is advertised as not being secure we couldnt find any means for our little ones to escape and the large garden was perfect for them to play in while we watched on from the large well furnished patio. The house with its amazingly large kitchen overlooking the garden and patio is well stocked with everything you might need. There is plenty of parking space, probably could accommodate 5 or 6 cars if needed. We had a magical holiday here, would highly recommend The Lodge and happily return. Hide

Beautiful home, well appointed with more than enough space inside and out for the group size. The kitchen and ground floor dining/drawing room/utility room having a flat floor makes it a treat to use and enjoy. The garden is a wonderful space and the neighbourhood is quiet.
