Guests say
Twitten Cottage is a charming and cosy property in Southwold, highly praised for its superb location near the beach and shops. Guests have found it to be clean, comfortable, and well-equipped for a pleasant stay. While it is ideal for smaller parties, it offers a warm welcome with thoughtful touches, contributing to a delightful holiday experience.
The cottage is consistently described as clean, with one detailed review noting it as spotless. The presence of leaves and debris at the entrance in one review slightly impacts the score.
The location is repeatedly commended for being close to the beach and town, making it an excellent spot for guests.
The cottage is generally considered comfortable, though some guests note that it may be more suited for smaller groups due to its size.
Facilities are adequate, with all cooking equipment to hand. However, suggestions for improvement in maintenance and the need for a more practical kitchen setup for larger groups affect the score.
Guests have mentioned a welcome tray and a bag of goodies, indicating thoughtfulness. However, as these gifts are not guaranteed for every stay, they are a delightful bonus rather than a standard provision.

Ms Doubleday
A little cottage which was fine for us two fit people (steep narrow stairs). All very pleasant and tucked away near Adnams’ and the lighthouse. Conveniently situated and very nice for a last minute three night getaway. A pleasing and charming place.

Miss Evans
Excellent location for town and beach. Cottage small and though it can sleep4, would be better suited to 2 and a child.Impossible to sit 4 round kitchen table without a lot of removal constantly. Stairs are narrow and steep, so need to be sure footed . Otherwise clean and comfortable.

Ideal location for two people, would be a tight squeeze for four.
