Sitting 500 metres from Southwold’s iconic pier, this contemporarily-styled bungalow is perfect for families that love life by the sea. Located in the heart of the Suffolk Coast & Heaths AONB, it features a large sitting room, three versatile bedrooms, a wraparound garden and near-instant access range of attractions.

Contemporary furniture and soothing tones fill every room of this single-storey gem, which is set well off one of the main B roads running towards the seafront. Modern creature comforts can be found throughout, helping to foster a homely atmosphere whatever the time of year. Gather together as a family in the sitting room to watch films, play games or plan your next adventure. Foodies will be in heavenly surroundings in the kitchen, and the alluring aromas from the stove won’t have to travel far to reach the neighbouring dining room. You can be assured of a good night’s sleep in either the en-suite king-size bedroom, twin bedroom or single bedroom nearby, with the opportunity for an indulgent soak in the neighbouring bathroom at a time of your choosing. The wraparound garden offers secluded seating for some quiet time while the children play on the vast lawn. If your family creates a lot of laundry, the utility room in the garage is your new best friend.

There’s so much for all the family to enjoy in Southwold, from its Victorian pier (500 metres) to its bustling marketplace lined with shops, cafes and pubs serving a range of local fare. The sand and shingle beach, bordered by colourful beach huts, is great for a stroll, as are Southwold Common and Walberswick village (both within 1 mile).

As usual we had a wonderful few days in Southwold. Perfect location and property for my father who has mobility issues. Enjoyed having coffee in the morning in the garden and watching the rabbits. Very quiet and easy access to the sea front. Lovley break for three generations!

Woodpeckers is well equipped and comfortably furnished. There is parking for probably 3 cars. It is conveniently located for shops, playground, church and, of course, beach and pier. We enjoyed watching the rabbits in the garden.

House is in very a quiet neighbourhood but only minutes from the beach and High St. Very well equipped with all you need for a home from home break, beds and sofas comfortable as is the garden furniture. Garden gets sun for most of the day and very private. Highly recommend for a peaceful holiday

Woodpeckers is the perfect holiday home; it is very well -equipped, comfortable, warm and quiet and spotlessly clean. From the moment you open the front door you know that an excellent stay awaits. It is two minutes walk to the sea and the pier, and only ten minutes to the High Street, and an added bonus is private parking. We've stayed four timesRead more now and hope to be back. Hide
