Alpha is an excellent place to stay. We were very comfortable. It is very conveniently positioned for both the beach and the town. We booked Alpha for a holiday for 5 of us, My wife & I, our daughter and her 2vchildren aged 12 & 14. We had one of the nicest holidays I have ever had.

We found Alpha very comfortable and loved that it was only five minutes' walk from the beach. We were also able to walk to Walberswick from Alpha, via Blyth Road, Palmers Lane and the footbridge - took about 40 minutes. Enjoyed seeing birds and wildflowers along the way. We've really enjoyed our holiday in Southwold and found everyone in the town friendly and helpful. A lovely atmosphere.
