The Summer House is ideally situated for getting into Southwold (only short drive away) for all the amenities/seafront and plenty of other places of interest to visit not too far. Very handy to have a couple shops for essentials nearby. Lovely, peaceful area to relax in.

Great Location for visiting many of suffolks attractions. Plenty of space for our party of Grandma, Mum and 2 kids (2 and 4 yrs) good safe and enclosed garden for the kids to play in. Local shop just 5mins walk down the road had everything (and more) that you could possibly need. Although only a short distance from Southwold the property is locatedRead more well set back on a non-busy road which made it very peaceful. Hide
