Number Eight is an ideal property for a holiday! It provides contemporary furnishings and is all ground floor. Number Eight offers the perfect setting for a family and their pet. There are many scenic walks right on the doorstep and RSPB Minsmere is located two and a half miles away.

Discover the Suffolk coastline from the vantage point of this exclusive property that sleeps five in comfort, embracing exciting walks across the heather-clad heathland and spending long days on the beach. Studded within the quintessential village of Westleton, you’ll soon be exploring the surrounding countryside and sampling delicious local fare at one of the many gastropubs scattered nearby in Aldeburgh (9 miles) and Southwold (9 miles). Families and friendship groups alike will be enchanted by Southwold’s colourful beach huts, traditional pier and charming harbour, but you’ll also have stunning Minsmere within 2.5 miles to soak up the stunning countryside views.

Beneath the charming exterior is a spacious abode that’s contemporary and welcoming, complete with artistic flair. The living area blends the comfort of a roaring wood burner with quirky furniture, and on warm afternoons you can open the bi-fold doors and enjoy an al-fresco vibe with your meals. Cosy film nights, extravagant feasts and family board games await after your adventures, or you can make the most of the CD and DAB radio and dance to your favourite tunes. The kitchen is fully equipped for cooking up a storm, plus there is a handy utility room to cater for any laundry needs. In terms of bathroom facilities, there is a large bathroom with a shower, luxurious bath and WC, and an additional WC to save on queuing. At bedtime, you’ll have a choice of a pretty twin room, a comfortable single, and a double bedroom that boasts French doors to the garden.

Outside, the vast expanse of lawn is ideal for children and your well-behaved dog to play, but you’ll be able to make the most of the peace and solitude with a dose of sunshine thanks to the numerous seating areas.

We enjoyed our stay at Number 8. It is in a great location, close to the village of Westleton and the coast, and is very private. Our children enjoyed playing in the large garden, and all of the accommodation being on one level was a great benefit for us. The shower was great as well, not often something found in holiday homes. There were a few issRead moreues with the cleanliness of the property - the general areas, such as kitchen and bathroom, were clean. However, there was quite a lot of dust and cobwebs in most of the rooms. Also, although we were given a bag full of goodies which was lovely, there were no bin bags and no spare toilet paper or kitchen roll (that we could find). We ended up having to buy these basics ourselves. Hide

Number 8 is fab! Very well equipped and in a perfect location for nearby beaches and attractions. The bungalow worked really well for us as a young family. Would definitely look at booking to stay there again.
