Built in 1795, Apple Cottage is Grade II listed. Just a 10-minute walk to Southwold beach, this two-hundred-year-old cottage has been stylishly renovated, with a grey and white colour scheme. It has a beautiful, secluded and sheltered south west facing garden which is a real asset to this property. The ground floor comprises an open plan living area including a Swedish wood burning stove, a dining area, a well-equipped galley kitchen, and a separate adjoining shower room.
The kitchen, whilst compact, has been cleverly designed and fitted with all appliances and equipment you will need to make your self-catering break a true home from home. The wooden flooring throughout the ground floor makes this an ideal property to bring a dog along to, if you wish. White Company linen and towels are provided for your stay.
Upstairs, there are two double bedrooms, one with an ensuite bathroom including a roll-top bath. Whilst downstairs, there is a shower room with WC.
Apple Cottage boasts a beautiful walled, south-facing, private garden for alfresco dining and sunbathing!
There are ample hiking guides and maps provided to help you pack your stay full of activities.

Southwold Central - The properties located in central Southwold are all within minutes of the marketplace, with the elegant Swan Hotel, an excellent range of small shops including greengrocers with fresh local produce, family butcher and delicatessen. The upper promenade is ideal for a peaceful stroll at any time of the year and provides quick access to the beach and of course, the lighthouse in the town is a good landmark.
