This charming property, situated just 150 metres from Southwold’s beach, is the perfect coastal hideaway for four. Suitable for couples, families or friends, this two-bedroom holiday home gives you the opportunity to explore the bustling shopping area of the town (150 metres) and spend days out along the Suffolk Coast AONB. Head down to pretty Thorpeness (17 miles) or Aldeburgh (18 miles) for a change of scenery and to make the most of this superb part of East Anglia.
The cottage, which sits on a row of pretty terraces, is cosy and welcoming. The galley kitchen has bold decor with glossy units and contemporary appliances; dine at the table in the conservatory or sizzle up a BBQ out in the courtyard in the summer months. Neutral interiors and a wooden beam across the fireplace beckon you to snuggle up on the sofa in front of the wood burner with a good book or your favourite show on TV. At bedtime, head up to the tranquil bedrooms; both benefit from the peaceful blue tones of the sea and pretty coastal touches to encourage a good night’s sleep.
Children and adults alike will revel in the arcade machines at the Under the Pier Show (0.5 miles), but there’s a traditional arcade at the top of the pier if you want to spend your change! If you need an adrenaline rush, take a speed boat trip on the Coastal Voyager (500 metres) out to sea where you may spot herons, gulls and osprey. For a bracing walk, head to Dunwich Heath (11 miles) or RSPB Minsmere (11.5 miles) where you can also do a spot of birdwatching. And for a wonderful family day out, head to Camel Park Oasis (15 miles) where you can go out on camel rides and llama walks.
