This gorgeous period cottage is located in the pretty market town of Beccles, offering a homely and cosy base from which to explore this scenic part of Suffolk. It’s a lovely terraced house in a central location, with pubs, shops and the local train station all within 0.5 miles. Fans of water-based activities will love the close proximity to Beccles Lido and River Waveney (both 150 metres). With space in its two bedrooms, this quaint accommodation is ideal for a family or small group keen for a relaxing holiday with up to one dog.
Enter the front door directly into an open-plan living area with stunning exposed beams and a quality wooden floor. A super-comfy sofa sits opposite a brickwork fireplace housing a cosy electric wood burner for those chilly nights. Tuck into leisurely meals at the dining table, positioned below a mullioned sash window providing another rustic touch. The small-but-perfectly-formed kitchen is located towards the back of the house, and there’s a sweet courtyard outside where you can sip morning coffee in the fresh air. There’s also a small outdoor space out the front equipped with a bistro set.
Beccles is a medieval town on the Suffolk/Norfolk border with a rich history and a vibrant atmosphere – while away a morning wandering around its independent shops before heading for a coffee in one of many cafes. The town is a gateway to the Broads National Park, with excellent walks leaving straight from your front door (the dog’ll certainly be happy!) and boating opportunities on the river. For a change of scenery, head east to the Suffolk Heritage Coast where you’ll find a splendid coastline peppered with pristine beaches and quaint villages to explore.
