Southwold is a quintessentially British seaside town located on the stunning Suffolk coastline; famous for its iconic beach huts, towering lighthouse and Adnams brewery. The town is surrounded by water making it almost an island, with one road in and out; it is joined to Walberswick only by an old railway bridge, suitable for walkers and cyclists, which adds to the charm of this historic fishing town. There is a thriving community which keeps the town running; there are markets, craft fairs, street fairs and carnivals held throughout the year, celebrating both the history of the town and the local spirit. The 1600s were a historic era for Southwold; in 1634 the butchers, which still trades today, first opened its doors; in 1659 was the great fire of Southwold which saw much of the town burn to the ground and is the reason the town has its famous ‘Greens’; and 1672 saw the Battle of Solebay, in which both the English and Dutch claimed victory and is celebrated through local anniversary ales and spirits. With dog friendly pubs, footpaths to neighbouring villages, sandy beach, fish and chip shops, three convenience stores, fresh fish from the harbour, crazy golf, an array of restaurants, a brewery and a distillery, you will have plenty to enjoy when you visit this exciting and famous seaside town; just watch out for the seagulls pinching your chips!

Southwold Pier Area - It is often said that nothing changes in Southwold. However, the much-acclaimed pier was rebuilt in 2001 and was the first to be constructed in England in over fifty years. It now fits in well with the painted beach huts, promenade and colourful flowerbeds. There is a shop, cafes and an alternative amusement arcade there. The selection of properties' hereabouts makes it an ideal location to stay in Southwold if you require quiet accommodation that is also close to the beach, town centre and the many footpaths across the marshes leading you to the less explored areas of the town.

Thank you Sandra for providing such wonderful holiday accommodation. So comfortable and clean with easy access to both beach and the lovely little town of Southwold. The welcome pack was much appreciated too. Despite very erratic weather, we managed to enjoy some time in the garden with our 1 and 3 year olds. Our first, but hopefully not our last, visit to Southwold and wonderful coast/countryside and would definitely stay at Bon Amis again. (The dressing gowns were a wonderful, luxury touch).

Thank you for having such a gorgeous home in Southwold for us to stay in! Superb in every way. Perfect for our girls week away plus dogs - all four of us have had a special week. The house is the Best!! Highlights were - walk to Walberswick and The Anchor & Bell for lunches and in reverse The Harbour Inn. Basically, we have walked and eaten our way around this gorgeous town! Back soon for sure!!!
