Property code: OC-HHIGH

Beautiful, spacious holiday home in the heart of Southwold and moments from the seaside. Sleeping nine guests, this property provides plenty of social space for sharing special memories, plus having the bonus of the beach, harbour, shops and restaurants all within 0.5 miles.

Enter this airy property, and you will be greeted with a relaxed, seaside-inspired theme throughout. Take a seat in the ground-floor lounge in front of the TV, and admire gorgeous seaside views across the garden to Southwold Pier. When you're ready to tear yourself away from the sights, head to the fully equipped kitchen to plate up bountiful feasts for all the family. Take a seat at the breakfast bar or enjoy a meal at the nine-seater table or on the decking. After dinner, head up the open-tread spiral staircase to the second lounge, with polished wooden floorboards, leather sofas and a wood burner that is sure to warm those toes after a blustery day on the beach. At bedtime, choose from four beautifully appointed rooms. On the ground floor is a single with an adjustable Volker bed and a Felgains Invacare Ceiling Hoist (looped version) with tracking to the shower room. Also on the ground floor is an en-suite family room hosting a double bed and adult bunk beds. On the first floor are a king-size with en-suite bathroom, and a twin (latter accessed via three steps down from living area). Start your day with a caffeine fix in the garden, best enjoyed with the papers and your feet up.

Relive traditional seaside days out in the lively town of Southwold. Go crabbing from the pier, sunbathe on its endless stretch of coast, or enjoy some healthy competition at the amusements. The town has bars, excellent restaurants and fish and chip shops if you wish to eat out. For a change of scenery, experience Suffolk's natural beauty by walking through the birdwatching paradise of Dunwich Heath, a precious landscape dotted with purple heather and rustic woodland. Tee off at Southwold Golf Club (1 mile) or have a day out at Southwold Maize Maze (2 miles) to fly through the air on a zip wire.

Excellent provision for wheelchair user and also for family holiday. Excellent location near the pier. It was a bit frustrating that the wheelchair user couldn't go upstairs, but we'd like to book next summer.

The cottage was light, spacious and better equipped than anywhere I have ever been. The location is excellent with the beach and pier virtually on our doorstep. We were an extended family with a disabled family member and we all felt we had plenty of space when we wanted to be self-contained as well as excellent communal areas for when we wanted toRead more play games together. Have already booked again for next year! Hide

This property was the only one we could go to in the area as it was the only one which provided a fully adjustable electric bed and chair for my dad. What a holiday home it is! It's an absolutely fabulous place to stay, really was a home from home with all the accessories and things you would need and right by the pier with excellent views! We wereRead more able to come and go as needed and there was everything you would need for a baby/ toddler too! 100% would stay again. Thank you! Hide

We love it here, excellent facilities and best location right in front of the pier. Its our sixth visit and we absolutely adore Southwold. We will be back! Its a shame though that prices have to skyrocket during peak seasons, especially as accessible properties are hard enough to find as it is.
