Close to the heart of Southwold, this sympathetically updated cottage is a lovely hideaway for larger families and groups of friends looking for a quiet retreat close to the beach. Offering spacious accommodation for up to ten guests, the cottage has views out towards the lighthouse, and a range of original features including exposed brickwork, a charming window seat and roll-top bath. This tastefully decorated, beautifully furnished cottage has a long history – with spells as a barber’s shop and stationery store – and now makes a fabulous holiday getaway for walkers, nature lovers and beach fans discovering the Suffolk coast and countryside.
Stepping into the cottage, the bright and colourful lounge has a Smart TV, plenty of seating and a wood burner effect electric fire set in a brick surround. The stylish dining room is ideal for enjoying all your family dishes and celebratory meals which you can prepare in the elegant galley-style kitchen. Two shallow steps from the hall lead into the ground-floor double bedroom which has an en-suite shower room. Upstairs, there’s an elegant Jack and Jill bathroom alongside four delightful bedrooms: two twins, a king-size room and an en-suite double. All the bedrooms have Smart TVs. From the kitchen and the ground-floor bedroom, doors lead out into a sweet courtyard garden with outdoor furniture, offering a cheerful spot to sit back, dine alfresco or enjoy a quiet breakfast first thing.
The beach is just 200 metres away, with the pier and model boat pond just a short stroll north along the parade. Southwold has plenty of great pubs, restaurants, shops and galleries along with a historic lighthouse and vintage cinema. Also nearby are a range of popular attractions for all the family, including the Southwold Maize Maze, Benacre National Nature Reserve and Leiston Abbey, all within 13 miles.
