A traditional cottage in the heart of one of the most popular towns in the Suffolk Coast & Heath AONB. Well-suited to families or a small group of friends, the cottage features an open-plan living area, inviting bedrooms, an enclosed garden and easy access to the Victorian pier that juts out from the sand and shingle beach.

Just 150 metres from Southwold’s bustling high street, this homely cottage offers large, welcoming rooms across its two storeys. Original features such as an inglenook fireplace, exposed ceiling beams and timber frames are found throughout, along with views of the garden. Snuggle up around the wood burner in the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, which is also a place to create and enjoy memorable meals using locally-sourced ingredients. A family shower room stands nearby. Climb steep stairs to reach the first floor, home to a double bedroom and a twin bedroom that both feature striking timber frames and plenty of storage space. Sip morning coffees or pour over a good book surrounded by mature borders in the enclosed garden.

The cottage lies 150 metres from Southwold’s bustling high street, home to numerous family-friendly shops, cafes and pubs. The town’s sand and shingle beach is split by its famous Victorian pier, with rows of colourful beach huts on both sides. Numerous footpaths and trails lead in and out of the town, with the quaint village of Walberswick and Suffolk Coast National Nature Reserve both within 7 miles of the cottage.

Lovely little cottage, great location, nicely decorated with lots of interesting pictures and objects everywhere. Well-kitted out with everything we needed, a lovely welcome pack, two spacious downstairs rooms, good size TV (for Wimbledon catch-up in the evening!) and a pretty back garden. The downstairs loo was a night-time challenge due to the (aRead mores advertised) tiny steep staircase and the shower was just too tiny for our comfort but might be fine for smaller guests or shorter stays. A straightforward booking experience from start to finish - thank you. Hide
