  • A delightful redbrick family holiday home with comfortable furnishings
  • Large kitchen/diner for sociable cooking and dining
  • Lovely sunny patio with a summerhouse for relaxing alfresco

Property code: OC-SL178

This charming property, situated just 350 metres from Southwold’s North Beach, is the perfect hideaway for anyone looking for a peaceful holiday by the sea. Sleeping six over three tranquil bedrooms with space for a dog, this end-terrace cottage is ideal for families or groups of friends that won’t leave anyone behind. Spend sunny days out on the patio, dining alfresco and retiring to the pretty summerhouse when it gets a little chilly.

The holiday home, which is just 500 metres from the centre of Southwold, is spacious and cosy. The stylish kitchen diner has everything you need to cook up a storm, with a fabulous Range-style oven and colourful splashback. Dine at the table in the middle, chatting about your plans for tomorrow. Move through to the lounge where earthy tones and comfortable sofas make it a wonderful spot to wind down in before heading to bed. Each bedroom has calming, neutral decor to help you get a good night’s sleep. There’s a shower room and a family bathroom, so no need to worry about queues in the morning!

After a day at the beach, visit the bizarre arcade machines at the Under the Pier Show (500 metres) or spend your change at the traditional arcade at the top of the pier. Take a family walk down to Walberswick (2 miles) across the River Blyth on the foot ferry; there are plenty of cafes and pubs to rest at and the beach is much quieter than Southwold’s. Southwold has plenty of boutique shops but if you want to browse more antique shops and quirky stalls, visit Snape Maltings (19 miles) for the day; you could take a stroll on Aldeburgh Beach (18 miles) before you head home.

A lovely place to stay, really well positioned for the sea front and centre of southwold. Very clean & comfortable beds and lots of space to sit in the kitchen and chat sat around the table. Ground floor amenities ideal for someone with limited mobility too, would highly recommend poppy corner for anyone to stay in this lovely part of England.

The house is in a great location, we know Southwold and Suffolk well, it makes a great base for a holiday. It's comfortable enough, heating quickly warms up the house, and the room downstairs is a welcome addition if travelling with a family member with mobility issues. But the house feels tired, some furniture is dated and the floors are very noiRead moresy. The kitchen has an unpractical layout, having to travel with pans to the cooker and back to the sink, the cutlery at the other end of the room. A minor and down to personal taste - the red 'poppy' theme (fake flowers et all) throughout, is rather off putting. Hide

Poppy's Corner was spectacular. The location was excellent-easily within walking distance to High St. and the pier. The layout of the house worked perfectly for us- one bedroom and bath downstairs which eliminated logistical challenges for a mobility impaired guest. The kitchen was a dream. Huge oven with all the necessary equipment to produce a loRead morevely family meal. Poppy's Corner was absolutely wonderful. Hide

Poppy corner is a delightful house situated in a peaceful cul de sac perfectly located for all the amenities Southwold has to offer. The annexe is a bonus.
