Dakings is a fantastic hidden gem tucked away in a quiet cul de sac location with the main market town of Halesworth only a short walk away. A little oasis close to the coast. The very popular Italian restaurant, Cleone's is a stones throw away, serving delicious pasta, pizza, fish, meat and vegetarian dishes.  Dakings has been tastefully renovated to a high standard and presents beautifully. An idyllic self-catering holiday home with ground floor accommodation. From the front door you walk into a light, welcoming hallway with storage for shoes and coats. The sitting/dining area has been furnished to a very high standard with two sofas and a smart TV in the sitting area and a large family table sitting up to six guests in the dining area. Perfect to enjoy family meals at. The beautiful design of this property flows through into the kitchen which is very well equipped with everything you would require for your self catering holiday and more. Dakings offers two comfortable bedrooms with pristine white sheets and carpet underfoot. The first with a king sized bed the second with a zip and link super king sized bed. This allows flexibility for both families and couples to holiday together. This property has the added bonus of private parking for three cars along with an outside area with outdoor furniture. Just opposite the bungalow across from the drive there is also a large grassed area which is also for guests use. Shop: 0.2 miles. Pub: 0.2 miles. 

Why we love this property: This stylishly furnished bungalow offers flexibility for both a couples retreat or a family getaway and with neighboring property Church Farm why not book the both for your big family gatherings.

We really enjoyed our stay and this very large cottage in a quiet area. The beds were very comfortable, the TV and WiFi worked very well. The large and sunny garden was very useful and the garden chairs comfortable. There are plenty of things to see and do in the area. Southwold is a great place to visit.

Extremely clean, spacious, stylish, well-equipped and, apart from the sofas, comfortable in a quiet and convenient location. We found the sofas extremely difficult to get onto and off, and only the creative use of a (fortunately) large number of cushions allowed us to sit, albeit in not the most comfortable of positions.

This is my second stay in this property following a very pleasant stay last year. It is a well appointed property very close to the centre of Halesworth which has a newly renovated Co-op, a selection of independent shops, several cafes and some good pubs and restaurants. It is close to many lovely places to visit including Southwold and Aldeburgh.

A very comfortable and tasteful interior design to this bungalow. Situated in very convenient location to centre of market town, pubs and restaurants. We particularly liked The Angel/Cleone's where we had drinks and lovely meals - great chef and staff. Handy too for visiting other places. Thoroughly enjoyed our break and would recommend.
