A gorgeous Victorian terrace home, nestled within the centre of Southwold and only a 5-minute walk to the hustle and bustle of the high street or sandy shores of the beach.

Beautifully presented throughout, 5 Salisbury Road offers guests a gorgeous family home to enjoy and explore this charming coastal town. Unwind in the cosy living room after a day chasing the waves and in the chillier months, snuggle up in front of the roaring log burner. The kitchen is fully equipped with all you could need during your stay but if you do fancy indulging in a seaside favourite, The Little Fish & Chip Shop is just a short stroll away. For those who need a space to work whist away or want to enjoy a good novel then the snug makes for an excellent quiet place to do just that.

Three lovely bedrooms boast a king, double or bunk bed so there is plenty of space for all the family. Even your four-legged friend can join in the fun!

Great location for beach, pubs and shops. Only one bathroom, we were only 3 so was OK more folk would be possibly challenging. WWW at times not consistent.

5 Salisbury Rd is a very comfortable and well-appointed house. It is very spacious and has a great garden and outside sitting area. The location is perfect. A short walk to the beach one way and to the shops the other. We would certainly book this cottage again.

Lovely house that catered to all we needed. Very comfortable beds, always a bonus. Well situated for the beach, St Edmunds Green and the great shopping in the high street. Peaceful and relaxing. Teddy the dog loved it too.

Our 2nd visit to 5 Salisbury Road for a February holiday. A lovely spacious house with good amenities in a central location in town. Very nice lounge with wood burner and separate study. We didn't use the outside area but it looks well equipped for the summer months. We plan to return in future.

A beautiful house in an amazing location in Southwold near to the pier, beach and high street. This is our 4th different house we have stayed in here, and our favourite so far.
