Just two miles north of Aldeburgh this fascinating seaside village was built in the 1920s by Glencairn Stuart Ogilvie, an architect, barrister and playwright. This magnificent building is now the hallmark of Thorpeness.  Amenities include the Dolphin Inn pub; The Kitchen Cafe; Thorpeness Hotel and Country Club with tennis courts; a superb 18-hole golf course, extensive sports field and the Meare - a large shallow boating lake with tearooms nearby. There are miles of mainly sandy beaches to explore, as well as a myriad of gorgeous footpaths through forests, fields and across the heath.

Reviews

Fantastic location, great space but be prepared for bad mattresses and being awakened at dawn by the light.

Mrs D,

This is a wow property, the upstairs is fabulous, great for a group of friends, very close to a good pub and beach and lots to do in the area. We loved it and would come back.

Mrs G,

The Courthouse has a lovely, spacious living / dining area which is perfect for an extended family gathering following a day on the beach or out walking, with a large dining table, separate breakfast bar, not to mention a hideaway mezzanine level perfect for children. As well as this, the house is perfectly positioned in Thorpeness, over the road from the lovely Dolphin pub and only a quick stroll from the golf club. Would definitely recommend this for larger groups, but also, as it has been for us, an opportunity for a small party to enjoy a lot of space, I'd challenge anyone to find a property with more available in Aldeburgh or Thorpeness!

Mr S,
