Set on the unspoilt Suffolk coast, Walberswick is a nostalgic English dream. The picturesque village enjoys a long sand and shingle beach backed by grassy dunes and is surrounded by marsh and heathland which is protected as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Walberswick is popular with walkers, birdwatchers, cyclists and children, who love to crab from Walberswick’s wooden footbridges. Even in the height of summer, it is still possible to find solitude and an empty stretch of beach just a short walk across the fields from Troy. The village has two excellent pubs, The Anchor and The Bell. There are many fantastic walks from Walberswick including the Suffolk Coast Path leading to the historic village of Dunwich. Other attractions nearby include the seaside town of Southwold, which can be accessed via the small foot ferry (summer season only) or by taking a gentle stroll along the old railway path. RSPB Minsmere Reserve is only a short drive away.

This is a really lovely house for a larger family group located well for access to the Suffolk coast and some beautiful walks. The dog welcome pack was thoughtful.

Troy is a lovely house, very well proportioned and laid out for a large family or group of friends.

Wonderful location, great house, plenty of room to all be together or find some quiet space. The swimming pool is great, the children loved it. Very good for children and adults alike. Nice coffee and tea shops and two very good pubs.

Troy is a lovely, spacious house in a delightful area. The downstairs rooms are very large and easily accommodate a large family group. It is very well-equipped and has a plethora of books and games to enjoy. The pool is a bonus: although not heated , it was enjoyed by young and old and there are inflatables and outdoor games as well. (And very smaRead morert outdoor furniture.) There is a convenient, small Co-op a few minutes walk away for basic provisions and good takeaway pizzas available from the village. Communication with the owners was straightforward and an issue with the pool was swiftly dealt with. The garden is not completely dog -proof so care needed when dogs loose in the garden. There are many lovely walks from the house, though some footpaths are rather overgrown in the summer. Walberswick is a delightful village and very popular. The walk to the beach is hazardous with small children due to the traffic so the car had to be used, but there is plenty of reasonably-priced parking at the end of the road. Though new to crabbing we became instantly hooked and quite successful, then delighted in watching them scuttle back to the water. Troy pleased all the family and made the holiday a most memorable occasion. Hide
