Gun Hill Place

About this property

Stay in the heart of Southwold in this Grade-II listed Regency property with uninterrupted views of the sea and direct access to the sandy beach. Part of the town’s DNA, this impressive property offers the perfect base from which to explore the town itself and Suffolk’s wider heritage coastline. Perfect for families or groups of friends, enjoy the many walking opportunities nearby, including a route along the water’s edge to the village of Walberswick (1.5 miles), or along the River Blyth into the depths of the countryside.

On arrival, take in the fabulous sea views from almost every window of the property, and feel the history oozing from the walls. Walk into the social heart of the home, a spacious kitchen/diner with all you need in the kitchen, including a built-in bar, to entertain the group who can gather at the table in this room to enjoy the chef’s work. After food, retire to the lounge to unwind in the comfortable seating that beckons, the perfect spot to watch your favourite films on the Smart TV. When bedtime calls, the first of the five bedrooms comprises a suite on the ground floor with a sumptuous super-king size bed, which can be made into a twin on request, an elegant en-suite shower room and beautiful views across the marshes. The remaining four bedrooms are upstairs on the first floor and offer spectacular views of the surrounding area. There is a delightful king-size bedroom with en-suite shower room and stunning marsh views. Two further bedrooms also offer fabulous sea views, one with a super-king size zip and link bed and en-suite shower room, and the other hosting another super-king size bed with direct access to the luxury shared family bathroom with free standing bath and shower. This bathroom is shared with a bespoke bunk bedroom, offering full sized beds with reading lights and custom joinery. Each room has been lovingly designed to create a tranquil setting to rest and recharge during your stay, with luxurious beds sitting effortlessly alongside gorgeous furnishings.

Outside, unwind in the wrap-around garden and private terrace that beckon on warm evenings, the perfect spot to unwind after a day’s adventure.

Take the pathway right down to Southwold Beach (less than 100 metres) with buckets, spades and surfing equipment when the sun shines. Wandering along the coast, find the town’s iconic pier 0.5 miles away, past the historic lighthouse offering tours, and the many pubs and takeaways offering refreshments for your afternoon on the sand.
