Aldeburgh Dawn is a beautifully situated second-floor apartment in the heart of the town. Simply and tastefully furnished, it feels more like a home than a holiday let. From the large, airy living room you can gaze over the rooftops to the ever-changing colours of the sea - the dawns are often spectacular. Two balconies, from the kitchen and bedroom, offer far-reaching views towards the houses and gardens of The Terrace. The ancient Cross Keys Pub and the High Street shops (including a superb butcher's and the famous Lawson's deli) and restaurants are a stone's throw. A perfect holiday idyll. Shop: 50 yards Pub: 50 yards.

Aldeburgh and the surrounding area has inspired many authors and poets in the past but the most famous son of the town is Benjamin Britten who founded the Aldeburgh Music Festival which now has worldwide acclaim and is held every year in June at Snape Maltings. Fishermen still pull their colourful boats up on the shingle beach and sell fresh fish from the picturesque huts. The wide, mainly Georgian high street has many attractive buildings whilst the seafront properties all have commanding views of the beach and the North Sea. Boating is popular on the nearby Alde estuary where a large variety of yachts can be seen at summer weekends.

Well situated with a decent view and a pleasant place to stay, stairs a bit of a faff when unloading and leaving, otherwise it was fine. The car parking space is helpful but is a bit tight spacewise when other vehicles are parked in there, not a lot of room for manouvre when reversing out.

The flat is 2 flights of stairs up, hard work with cases, so you need to be reasonably fit. Lovely sunny main room, lots of windows for the sea view.

I had a lovely solo weekend stay here. The location was absolutely the best thing for me - loved being able to look out at the moon coming up over the sea in the evening. And then being able to step outside directly onto the High Street for a stroll along the beach or a browse through the shops was excellent. I hope to be able to visit again. I'll Read moreremember my beach shoes next time! Hide

Its a great location with plenty of natural light. The property was quite cobwebby, however. I also wouldve expected some toiletries beyond a more than half-used bottle of Radox. I had to ask maintenance to visit as the cistern in the en suite gurgled for about 14 hours straight, keeping me awake. I was told someone would call me to arrange a conveRead morenient time to look at it but instead someone just turned up whilst I was having a nap. Hide

The apartment is very well and tastefully equipped and we found it very comfortable. There are two flights of stairs up to the flat, which means good exercise with your luggage!
