The beauty of the cottage’s location is you are within walking distance of both the shops and the beach, so head out for the day with a picnic basket and a bucket and spade and you’re good to go. If you want to get active, then there are loads of opportunities for sailing, cycling, walking and golf with Aldeburgh Marshes, a fantastic destination for a scenic hike. Jump in the car for days out to attractions such as Snape Maltings, Framlingham Castle, Sutton Hoo, RSPB Minsmere and Yoxford Antiques Centre and Gardens.

The popular, vibrant seaside town of Aldeburgh is famous for its culture, traditional feel and one of the best fish and chip shops in the country! Aldeburgh and Snape Maltings are home to one of the world’s greatest music festivals and has been named as one of the top 50 places to live in Britain. Crag Path runs along the seafront dividing the beautiful pebbly beach from the unspoilt pastel-coloured seafront properties and the town. The beach is a popular place for groups and couples to enjoy the wonderful fish and chips throughout the summer months. The town is steeped in history and has become a wonderful town for shopping with a good mixture of independent and chain stores to enjoy. The town also offers a good selection of pubs and restaurants or why not buy some freshly caught fish from the huts on the seafront and cook up your own feast at home. For those wishing for a more action-packed holiday there is excellent walking, cycling, sailing and golf at Aldeburgh. Growing in popularity you will want to return to Aldeburgh again and again!

John
The machine was filthy and the detergent draw didn't pull out so the powder I'd bought came home with me unopened and had to go and buy tablets. The tumble dryer took hours to dry laundry and made a horrendous noise - way above the TV. The TV had a vertical black line down the screen. There are no wardrobes in the bedrooms. The toilet flush in the en-suite is very hard to work, as is the one in the full bathroom, also the toilet seat moves from side to side in here too. I have let the owner know privately. It's a shame about the lack of cleanliness and repairs needed that should have been reported by the cleaner and repaired. Such a lovely little cottage. The ensuite is way too small for a couple with no storage space

Both times it was attended to but a new lock is in hand I believe to be replaced. Also there was no welcome letter left and the WiFi pass in the best of Suffolk folder isn't recognised. We had to use the password on the router in the small bedroom.

Lively welcome wine, biscuits and milk as well as tea and coffee. Bed very comfortable with good quality linen and pillows.Could have done with a standard light in the living room or table light as not good enough fir me to sew! But thatâs just me. Terrace was wonderful.
