About this property

Located in the centre of popular Southwold in Suffolk, Mycroft is a well-presented holiday which is just perfect for a small family. The property benefits from off-road parking and a courtyard garden and yet is just a few minutes from the beating heart of vibrant Southwold. The open-plan living space is a delight with a comfy seating area providing an attractive focal point to the room. The fully equipped kitchen is well fitted with everything that is needed to rustle up healthy food for the whole family and the elegant dining area is all set up ready for you to enjoy sociable meals together. Should the weather allow it, then there is a barbecue and patio table and chairs in the courtyard ready for you to make the most of any sunshine. After a quick soak in the bath or a refreshing shower, you’re ready to get out and about exploring. Southwold is just a short walk with a good selection of shops and eateries as well as a sandy beach, a lighthouse, a pier and what it’s best known for – its collection of brightly coloured beach huts.
