This is a lovely cottage, in a perfect location. It is central but also in a quiet corner of Southwold. It could do with some more equipment such as travel cot and high chair.

This cottage is generally nicely appointed and in a great location. However, the bathrooms are very cramped and the heating system struggled to bring the house up to temperature, even though it was relatively mild outside for early November.

Overall the cottage was comfortable with nice beds and a comfy lounge. Some of the kitchen equipment is getting very tired. But above all the garden was a disgrace, completely unkempt with weeds all over the patches of lawn. And the garden table was completely unacceptable. During our stay we would have liked to eat outside at breakfast and lunch oRead moreccasionally while it was shady but the table had clearly not been cleaned for months and was caked in bird droppings etc. Yes I could have scrubbed it clean but this was an expensive rental cottage and this chore should have been done already.

A very lovely and well equipped property in an excellent location. There is a play area nearby which was fantastic for the kids and is easy walking distance to all the main sights of Southwold. I wouldnt recommend to parents of young children though as there are no child locks or window restrictors, unless these have been fitted since our stay (worRead moreth checking). Hide
