A really spacious, comfortable cottage, with a fabulously equipped kitchen. We all had a lovely holiday. What a wonderful treat to buy fresh fish from the shores of Aldeburgh and cook up a feast...ate the best mackerel and kippers! Would highly recommend. Thanks!

Generally speaking the bungalow was ideal with plenty of equipment, although only supplying one toilet roll per bathroom for a week was a bit annoying. The loft hatch opening on its own in the middle of the night was dangerous and did damage the wall, but the staff dealt with the problem immediately and courteously.

A lovely property in a good location to visit the surrounding area A few issues - dust in many areas of the property, and a very strong smell of sewage from the bathroom areas. This was helped by opening the windows but 3 did not have windows
