Property code: OC-5RIVER

This fabulous property, situated in pretty market town Halesworth, is perfect for family or friends’ reunions. Sleeping eight across four peaceful bedrooms, this stylish property has everything you need to enjoy a relaxing stay with your loved ones close to the Suffolk coast. Spend sunny evenings sitting around the tables in either the front or rear courtyard, sipping an alfresco drink and taking in your surroundings after spending the day in town (350 metres) exploring the art centre, shops and restaurants.

The property, which sits on a row of terraces, has been decorated in a bright and airy contemporary style. Shaker units and beautiful wooden shelving and beams in the kitchen diner make it a pleasure to cook up tasty meals in, while calming neutrals and comfortable seating in the lounge invite you to curl up with a good book or your favourite show on TV. At bedtime, if you’re lucky enough to have the second-floor bedroom, take a refreshing rainfall shower in the en-suite among peaceful blue tones and stylish tiles. Then snuggle into bed – whichever room you choose, you’ll have a great night’s sleep thanks to contemporary fixtures and soft, pastel tones.

Head to Southwold (9 miles) where the stunning Denes Beach is perfect for sandcastles. There are plenty of shops to look around along with popular restaurants and pubs, and the Under the Pier Attraction will fascinate kids and grown-ups alike! For a more peaceful beach walk, head to wildlife-rich Dunwich Heath (11.5 miles) or neighbouring RSPB Minsmere (11 miles). Camel Park Oasis (6 miles) offers a great family day out where you can take camel rides and go on llama walks, while Saxtead Green Post Mill (14 miles) offers a more sedate afternoon out that you can pair with a trip to Framlingham Castle (13.5 miles).

The cottage was excellent - clean and well equipped. The attic bedroom was especially attractive and had a large ensuite. The kitchen had everything we needed and lounge was comfortable and accommodated the six of us easily. All in all, it was a very pleasant stay.

Im originally from Halesworth so it was the location for our family. The cottage was like a home away from home. We will return here in the future.

In Halesworth for a Christmas reunion with extended family from far and wide, we had a fantastic time with our three adult children, a partner and 8 month old granddaughter. All home comforts provided in this cosy, beautifully decorated and well-equipped cottage - the Christmas decorations and welcome gifts were much appreciated too! Thank you.
