Just 5 miles from Suffolk’s magnificent heritage coast, this elegant maisonette makes a fabulous base for a small family keen to combine nature walks with seaside adventures. It’s set in the peaceful grounds of the Blyth View development on the edge of Blythburgh village and surrounded by glorious countryside. When you’re not out exploring, make the most of your downtime at the on-site leisure complex shared with other residents. Take a dip in the heated indoor pool, enjoy a gentle gym workout or play table tennis in the games room.
Spread across three floors, the property blends timeless architecture with contemporary comfort and sumptuous accessories. The main living area is on the first floor, upstairs from the entrance hall, with a soothing neutral colour palette setting the tone. In the lounge/diner, beautiful sash windows, original beams and high ceilings create a wonderfully calming ambience for relaxation. After scenic walks from your doorstep, cosy up in front of the fire to watch the Smart TV or gather round the dining table for a holiday feast prepared in the contemporary country cottage-style kitchen. Up on the second floor, you’ll find a bright family bathroom and two bedrooms, one offering countryside views through the dormer window.
Boasting colourful beach huts and a grand Victorian pier, Southwold (5.5 miles) is a top spot to while away a sunny afternoon. Those who love life on the water can enjoy a peaceful river cruise along the banks of the River Blyth, followed by a coastal voyage around Sole Bay from Southwold Harbour. If there are any budding wildlife photographers in your group, don’t miss RSPB Minsmere, 8 miles from the property. It offers scenic trails brimming with wildlife, from avocets to water voles. What’s more, entry is free for visitors aged between 16 and 24.
