The Haven in Snape is a charming and deceptively spacious detached bungalow with a modern coastal feel.  Located within the extremely popular village of Snape, this is close to Aldeburgh and the beautiful Suffolk Coast making it a wonderful place to stay for families and friends.

The kitchen is stylish and modern providing everything a guest could ask for.  The sitting room is large and bright with seating in abundance so that so that no one feels left out. A smart television prides itself in the room where you can cosy up on those cooler evenings with a good film and glass of wine or curl up under a blanket to read or listen to music. The sitting room opens into a Mediterranean style garden room/conservatory where you can enjoy meals around the dining table.  However, the property is situated in the heart of this idyllic village with 3 pubs just a short stroll away, so why not treat yourself to a night off cooking and venture out for some local cuisine!

The secluded garden and patio are delightful and the perfect place to relax after a long day exploring the stunning nearby beaches or the beautiful countryside walks of the Suffolk Heritage Coast.

With accommodation set out on one floor this is ideal for families.  There is a twin bedroom at the back of the property and a double bedroom at the front, both sharing the family bathroom.

 

Why we love this property: - Stylish modern and practical. Ideal for families looking for a holiday in central Snape close to the Snape Maltings and only a short drive to the beaches in Thorpness and Aldeburgh.

Snape is best known as the venue for the Aldeburgh Festival and for other events throughout the year held in the Maltings Concert Hall. However, the pretty village, at the head of the tidal estuary, is a popular holiday venue in its own right and central for exploring the unique area of the Suffolk Heritage Coast - the tidal estuary and network of footpaths are one of the most interesting areas of Suffolk for exploring on foot. There is easy access to the fascinating coastal town of Aldeburgh, plus castles and much more to explore at Framlingham and Orford. The burial treasures at Sutton Hoo, near Woodbridge, should not be missed also.

Property generally comfortable and well equipped. Heating is good, we had some cool mornings and evenings and the heating soon warmed the bungalow. Large enclosed garden which our dog loved.
