Snaptrip says
Lavender Cottage in Southwold is frequently praised for its excellent central location, cleanliness, and the convenience of having a parking space. Guests find the property cosy and comfortable, with a well-equipped kitchen and comfortable beds. The cottage is also appreciated for being pet-friendly. While it is generally well-regarded, some guests find the cottage a bit small for four adults and a dog, and one guest suggested that the bathroom could benefit from a deeper clean.
Guests that stayed at this property said
The majority of guests have reported that the cottage is very clean and well-kept. However, one guest mentioned that the bathroom might require a deeper clean, which slightly affects the overall cleanliness score.
The cottage is consistently commended for its central location, with easy access to the beach, shops, pubs, and restaurants. The added bonus of a parking space is frequently mentioned and highly valued by guests.
Guests describe the cottage as comfortable and cosy, particularly highlighting the sitting room and beds. However, some guests note that the space can feel a bit cramped for larger groups, which slightly lowers the comfort score.
The property is considered well-equipped by most guests, but one guest felt that the equipment provided was basic and sparse. The presence of a parking space is a positive aspect of the facilities.
While guests appreciate the overall experience, there is only one mention of a lack of a 'welcome pack', which does not provide enough information to accurately score thoughtfulness. It should be noted that such gifts are not guaranteed and may vary.

A nice little cottage in a great central location. Somewhat small for four adults, but cosy and convenient.

We just had a lovely two weeks holiday during the festive season. Lavender cottage is a quirky, cosy, dogfriendly cottage in sublime Southwold. Its location is fantastic and the fact that you have your own parking space right in front of the cottage, is a welcome bonus. Greetings from Holland to Chris the friendly owner. Ton, Gina and Juulke the dog

The cottage is very well located behind the high street with a very short walk to the beaches. The property was very clean and tidy and was very well equipped. Would 100% recommend.
