Our original booking was for an alternative property so this was an eleventh hour substitute but proved very comfy and an excellent location in the town.

We had a great time at this house the house was comfortable and we liked the style with patchwork and pictures and interesting books. The bath and shower were excellent and it was good to have storage and washing machine in the garage. The location is ideal as you can easily walk to town and the beach.

Not cheap but worth the money for its location, two vehicle parking and excellent long single room first floor. First class.

A perfect location - convenient for the shops, the seafront and walks across the common, but extremely quiet and with its own parking. We enjoyed the upside-down layout, which made the lounge lighter and sunnier. The beds were comfortable, and we had everything we needed for an out-of-season break.

This a lovely little house, and we were delighted to return having previously stayed there two years before. The location is great and the property is a really good size. It is generally well equipped and feels like a nice home from home for us as regular visitors to Southwold. Very much recommended

Hidden away, and so quiet but just steps away from the bustling high street and a short walk to the seafront. The house is so comfortable, love the upstairs living room and it feels like home.
