Fantastic cottage location with the added bonus of parking. Good size for 2 adults and 2 children. Well equipped kitchen, plenty of storage in bedrooms. 2 minute walk to town centre, shops and beach. Many great pubs to eat and drink at. Booking in advance is recommended. Would recommend.

Lavender Cottage is a comfortable , well thought out property, in a great location, close to all the shops and only a few minutes walk to the beach. Parking was a real bonus, but be aware space is tight if the other properties are all occupied

We had a very enjoyable last minute weekend stay at Lavender Cottage at the beginning of February 2025. The cottage is central to the town making it easy to get out and explore Southwold, which we did despite the awful weather! The car parking space was much appreciated and the cottage was comfortable and well equipped for two (it might be a bit tiRead moreght for four people). I would just like to mention that the stairs are steep and the steps very narrow which could be an issue for someone with mobility issues. Hide

The location of this cottage could not be beaten. It is fairly basic but we enjoyed our week. The hosts responded very quickly to a query about turning off the heated towel rail. Overall a lovely holiday.

This is a lovely quaint cottage. Tucked away but brilliant position close to the high Street, beach etc. Small courtyard but catches the sun and we enjoyed our morning coffee out there. Stairs are beautifully carpeted but fairly steep. There is a hand rail on both sides which is good. Beds were great! Really comfortable! Would definitely stay againRead more. Hide

When we arrived the cottage was in the middle of being decorated. All furniture in the middle of the floor no bedclothes or towels and smelling of paint. Evidently this was an error on the dates by the owner. We had to stay in a hotel at considerably higher cost. We would like a full refund as we were not able to stay at the property.
