This fabulous property, situated in the historic fishing village of Walberswick, is perfect for your entire family – including your four-legged friend. Sleeping four across two stylish bedrooms, this single-level property is an opportunity to get away from the stresses of busy life and enjoy some time near the coast. Take a walk across the River Blyth, over the bridge or using the foot ferry, to stunning Southwold (2 miles), where boutique shops, popular restaurants and the fantastic Denes Beach await.

The property, which has a shared garden with a patio area that’s ideal for al fresco drinks, is bright and airy with thoughtfully-selected furnishings and artwork. The contemporary kitchen has fresh neutrals and clean lines blended with pops of colour, while soft pastels in the open-plan living area make it a pleasure to curl up on the sofas in the evenings with your fellow guests. Both the en-suite and main bathrooms have a sleek, spa-like atmosphere that will leave you feeling refreshed and ready for a good night’s sleep; head to bed in either of the comfortable bedrooms where you’ll find plenty of storage space and pretty finishing touches.

If you’re here for beautiful walks, head to Dunwich Heath (6 miles) where you can take a serene walk through heathland with the opportunity to see special species of birds. You’ll also see them at RSPB Minsmere (8.5 miles) where there are play areas and a minibeasts safari for the kids. Aldeburgh (15 miles) has a lovely beach and lots of cafes and pubs; you can also go on the self-guided Aldeburgh Treasure Trail that starts on the seafront to keep the children busy. Inland, Framlingham Castle (17.5 miles) has wonderful grounds to enjoy a picnic on, and you can learn about the monarchs and lords of Framlingham in the museum.

This was our second stay in this accommodation and we had an equally pleasant stay as last year. The apartment is set in a very tranquil location in the lovely village of Walberswick, which is ideally situated for exploring the attractions of this part of Suffolk, such as the RSPB reserve at Minsmere and the nearby seaside town of Southwold.

Absolutely wonderful well equipped property, great location to get to Southwold or just wander round Walberswick, lovely walk along to Dunwich. Southwold Lighthouse well worth a visit as is The Black Dog Deli and Anchor pub. A delicious cherry and almond cake was left for us which we thoroughly enjoyed. Would definitely visit again.

This cottage is in a lovely, quiet part of Walberswick, and its possible to walk to the beach. Good sized accommodation, which is all bright and modern. Lots of kitchen equipment should you want to cook. I would note: the bed in bedroom one is two singles zipped up, not a king size bed and the sofas in the living room are quite low, not that easy tRead moreo get up from. Theres a lovely big shared garden. We also had use of the parking permit which was very handy. Wed recommend The Tea Shed in the village for breakfast and cakes; and The Bell Inn for a welcoming pub meal. It was our first visit to Walberswick and well be back. Hide
