Holiday cottages in Shingle Street
Browse our Shingle Street cottages and start planning your Suffolk getaway. Located on a remote stretch of Suffolk coastline, Shingle Street sits at the mouth of the River Alde and is dominated by its big Martello Tower that was built for defence during the Napoleonic Wars. Once a thriving home to fishermen and river pilots, Shingle Street is now a popular destination for swimmers, bird watchers and ramblers due to its unspoiled natural beauty and designated Site of Special Scientific Interest. Incredibly peaceful and windswept, Shingle Street is perfect for families seeking a quiet holiday of paddling in the sea or seal spotting on the coastline. Shingle Street cottages also give you the option to venture further along the Suffolk coast before coming home to picturesque gardens and modern facilities.
Another draw for visitors in this pretty part of the UK is the vast amount of award-winning shorelines available for families. Discover Aldeburgh, Felixstowe and Thorpeness beaches for afternoons of sandcastle building, all within 25 miles. Join the Suffolk Coastal Path from Shingle Street and discover hidden gems and wildlife from the trail. It's stunning, whatever the weather! Shop for delicious produce to use in your self-catering holiday cottage when you visit the town of Ipswich (18 miles). This lively waterfront location has plenty to see and do, including independent shopping, relaxing pubs and a collection of internationally recognised arts venues. And if you want a bit of history and you'd like to see one of only two working tide mills left in the UK, visit Woodbridge.
