Mrs Jones
We loved staying in Westleton, it's a great location for seeing the Suffolk coast and all it has to offer. We really enjoyed staying in White Clouds and were very comfortable there. There is plenty of equipment in the kitchen, comfortable beds and lovely garden to sit out in. The only shower is in the ensuite wet room which might be inconvenient for some, but otherwise we enjoyed staying at this property. It was our first visit to Suffolk and we loved it!

We are seasoned holiday cottage renters (some 30+ years' worth) and so we found the cottage is functional but we had the impression that the owner/agent were not going the extra mile to make it comfortable rather than just functional eg poor TV set up on a table that was perilously unstable, a mish mash of kitchen crockery etc etc. A little bit more effort and it would have been much better. All really summed up by the "Guests comment book" ie bog standard notebook - and with no entries for several months.

A comfortable, quiet and generally well equipped bungalow in a lovely location with fantastic walks from the door. The garden was lovely - well tended at the front and attractively natural at the back.
