A well appointed and comfortable flat. Everything we needed was there. A fabulous view, Southwold never fails on that score. Shower very good and a good mattress on the bed. The lack of Internet access has been an issue for many, ourselves included. Southwold free WiFi availability was poor and obviously not secure.

We found the cottage to be clean and comfortable and a perfect base for walking in the Southwold Area. The lack of internet was mentioned by several previous guests but was not that important to us. Also the scaffolding for repairing the balcony of the apartment above but that really can't be helped. We have booked to come again.

We stayed 3 nights in 12 Craigside, the location was excellent. The view from our lounge and bedroom overlooked the sea, the beach was just across the road. There was scaffolding out side our bedroom window due to the fact the balcony for the upstairs flat had been removed and we assumed being replaced. The kitchen was lovely and a good size and haRead mored everything required for self catering. Hide

Great location and size for 1 bed property but even with last minute discount this was still felt very expensive for what it was. The flat didnt feel thoroughly clean and we had lots of little issues (no plug for kitchen sink, fridge freezer switched off upon arrival, leaking shower screen which soaked the bathroom floor to name a few). A shame aRead mores the place has such potential but needs some TLC. Hide

Fantastic location across the road from the beach and in between the pier and high street area; parking was pretty busy on the beach road but we always managed to find somewhere close. We had seen a number of comments about the scaffolding outside of the apartment blocking the view but not sure what view it was blocking aside from a small restrictRead moreion out of one of the bedroom windows, so we were happy that we had took a chance and ignored this as we didn't consider this to be a problem at all. Inside the apartment was a great size, particularly the living room and kitchen / dinning area - very light and airy. This was our first time visiting Southwold and the Suffolk coast area and would not hesitate in staying here again, particularly if we get the same weather!!! Hide

Nice flat, good sea view from all but the bedroom window due to scaffolding which is not being moved anytime soon. It also blocks off the outside seating area. Kitchen well equipped. Comfy bed. Bathroom smells damp due to a leaky shower screen.

As the flat was ground floor and the pavements outside were very close it felt a bit goldfish bowl.

Great position once the scaffolding has been removed . The sea view as promised on the website has been completely obscured by scaffolding and we were not advised of this or offered an alternative accomodation. Basic cottage , no dishwasher , no washing up liquid. Could do with a good clean throughout and up dating . Rusty fridge . Outdoor furniturRead moree ie camp chairs hardly usable . Hide

Scaffolding does need to come down.Maybe 25% is a better compensation.

The flat was in an excellent location, a direct walk across the road to the beach, a pub around the corner and quick access into town. We mostly cooked in the flat using the local products from the town butcher, fish quay and bakers as well as my own line caught sea bass.
