This is a great rental. The location is excellent as you are in the centre of this delightful small town with all the facilities within a few minutes stroll. There is parking available within 200 metres of the apartment. The decor is lovely and the host is charming. The ‘Two Magpies’ bakery is 2 minutes away and has an excellent breakfast menu.

What great accommodation in a great location! The flat was ideal for two couples. We liked the little courtyard with table and chairs to enjoy the sunshine. It is above a bookshop with really friendly, welcoming staff. Woodbridge is great to base yourself for an exploration of Suffolk. The estuary walks are great for dogs and it's only half an hour's drive from Aldeburgh, Dedham Vale and Lavenham. We want to return in the winter as there are indoor experiences to explore and that wood burning stove to try out!
