Southwold is a beautiful place and The Mews is situated in a great spot. The overall size of the apartment is adequate and we found it clean and tidy. However this appartment was far from a comfortable stay. It's furniture was not only tired looking it was uncomfortable from the sofa, mattress, the bed frame, tv, towels, the shower not consistent tRead moreemp, it all needs replacing. No WiFi, unable to even accept or make telephone calls.We left a day sooner than we paid for (even though weather was great) as we had, had enough. Hide

Its a very nice place, but was let down for us unfortunately by the very poor WIFI. We do like to use the internet in the evenings. I ran a speed test when I was there which gave a reading of about 0.1 MBPS. This is about 400 times slower than we get at home. With only one device attached it was just about possible to read emails and that was it. WRead moree ended up very quickly using up the monthly data allowances on both our phones. Hide

Great location - very central, well equipped and ideal for a short break but a little tired.
