Overall, a very nice and well-equipped cottage with good space on the ground floor. The rear garden was a bit overgrown, but the pretty wisteria made up for that! It is a good base to explore the coastal areas and there are some lovely footpaths on the doorstep for early dog walking. We enjoyed the surrounding areas, particularly Aldeburgh and theRead more river boat trip from Snape Maltings. Would recommend Friday Street farm shop with its wonderful fresh produce and a caf serving quality breakfasts. Everywhere we travelled to was so dog friendly which was a huge plus for us and our lovely cocker spaniel. A thoroughly enjoyable 4 day break at Wisteria Cottage. Hide

The cottage was delightful and extremely comfortable. We loved our stay. The aga was a delight to use. The garden was enclosed and secure. This was extremely important as our dog is a runner! Everywhere we went was dog friendly. There are plenty of places to eat in the area that welcomes dogs. Everyone we met was SO friendly. There are many places Read moreto visit locally and we loved Thorpeness and Arlburgh. The Friday farm shop, was amazing for fruit and veg. There were plenty of footpaths near the cottage to use for Walkies. It was an easy walk across the fields, on the marked footpaths, to Snape and then onto Snape Maltings. We had a wonderful week of exploration. Hide

Lovely; very comfortable and (with one exception) very well equipped. Set in a quiet location but very well placed for easy access to the coast and all local attractions.

Tastefully decorated and well-equipped cottage with gorgeous views from the main bedroom. Stunning kitchen, very comfortable sofas and beds, and a lovely downstairs shower room.

Getting two cars on and off the driveway is a tricky chore due to narrowness of the lane and very high verges. Hide

The cottage is comfortable and set in a quiet location. The sitting room is quite dark and needs better lighting to allow easy reading. We enjoyed the separate dining area next to the kitchen. As there was no water in the kitchen taps, we were able to use the utility room next to the dining room to wash up albeit a bit irritating!
