Southwold Pier Area - It is often said that nothing changes in Southwold. However, the much-acclaimed pier was rebuilt in 2001 and was the first to be constructed in England in over fifty years. It now fits in well with the painted beach huts, promenade and colourful flowerbeds. There is a shop, cafes and an alternative amusement arcade there. The selection of properties' hereabouts makes it an ideal location to stay in Southwold if you require quiet accommodation that is also close to the beach, town centre and the many footpaths across the marshes leading you to the less explored areas of the town.

13 of us had a nice stay at the end of February. The house was big enough and had everything that we needed. Plus the location is great. As others have said, the house could do with redecoration in places, and a lot of the furniture is old. But it didnt stop us having a nice stay. The two bedrooms on the top floor are very cold.

Location is perfect and check in very easy. Overall the house is okay but we found ourselves without heating in a bathroom and bedroom as heaters provided did not work and we felt the furniture and kitchen supplies needed some tlc. Also a word of warning to people bringing pets, the garden is fenced but there must be a hole somewhere as our dog madRead moree his way to the street. Hide

Marram House is great for large families to holiday in, close to the pier, and not too far from the town and beach. Parking is not an issue. The house though and contents are looking old and worn. We stayed here a few years ago and much of the same fixtures and fittings are still there. The house needs a good make over if the same costs are to Read morebe charged. Hide

We really enjoyed our week at Marram House with ample space a family gathering. Conveniently close to the beach and the town centre. There is ample parking in the autumn. If there was a downside, the decor is beginning to become a bit tired which could easily be remedied.

Superb property and we ate outdoors most of the time. Ideally situated for both beach and town. Parking was occasionally difficult but parking in the driveway of Marram House meant allowed meant that one family member could park across the drive.

Great sized holiday home, perfect location for the pier and beach and only a 10 minute walk to the town . Wonderful holiday home for sharing with friends or extended family, beautiful views. Just in need of some TLC and finishing touches

A great house for an extended family weekend - with a large dining kitchen where we could all sit down together. It has a ideal location - within walking distance of both the pier and the sandy beach.

We stayed at the same property last year and are pleased with the space and there is enough room to get away if needed. It is very convenient for both the beach and the town. The beds were very comfortable and there were plenty of towels for each room.

We have visited Marram House with friends & family for many years and enjoy the spacious rooms, particularly the kitchen with its large table. When we are not out walking we tend to spend most of our time around that table! We were disappointed this year that the aga was not working - hopefully it will be replaced before we come again.
