  Really enjoyed our stay.

  Welcome wine and cake were appreciated. House was pretty clean (just bedding could have been a little cleaner, specially duvets/mattresses when saw them when removing sheets). Well equipped kitchen and good kitchenware. Could have just used a small baking tray. Bathrooms had good functioning showers etc too. We enjoyed the open plan area and everyone could find a comfy place to sit. Beds were nice and soft and all slept well. We found the front bedroom would get a bit chilly and the rear bedroom quite warm, due to position of the sun, even with one radiator off and the other on max. Just minor points to mention as we had a great stay and can see us hopefully returning in the future. Worked well for 3 generations ranging in age from 7 months to 70 years. Lovely location and handy for exploring the local area.

  Lovely cottage and perfect location (Thorpeness is lovely) - near nearby Aldeburgh, the beach and the local pub and dog walking ideal.

  Facilities on the whole very good but the "open fire" on one listing wasnt there - disappointing. The snug where the only TV (very small) is located is probably the sleeping for the 6th person? - not possible for 4 of us adults & dog to sit and watch tv - I know if you are on holiday you are out most of the time but at night (winter) when temperatures drop it would be nice to watch together some Christmas stuff/movie but impossible. The large dining/seating/Christmas tree area would have been so much more appropriate and comfortable and obvious with a more appropriate sized TV??? The heating was a little hit and miss and didn't come on when the temperature dropped. Didnt try to mess with that!

  An Ideal Holiday Stay for an Extended Family ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ An excellent property which was ideal for our party of 9 including a 1 year old and 4 year old. The large living area gave the children plenty of space to play. The dining area again was ideal to seat everyone comfortably around the table . The kitchen was well fitted out with everything that we needed. The bedrooms were spacious, bright and clean. The three showers / baths meant there was little queuing in the mornings. The secluded and well kept garden gave a safe and welcoming space to be outside. The house is ideally situated within easy reach of the sea, shop, pub and boating lake.

  5 The Bays is a great property for group or family stays offering fantastic views of the Meare. The beds are all comfortable and the rooms well equipped with plenty of storeage space. The large kitchen diner is a perfect sociable space with ample refrigeration space. The lounge is incredibly comfortable and putdoor seating is also available. Thorpeness is a small but pretty village with an amazing boating lake (The Meare) and a variety of places to eat. Aldeburgh is an easy walk away along the beach. We had an issue with the door alarm while we were there and this was dealt with on the same day, very efficiently.

  This is our favourite rental property in Thorpeness. The house is a perfect layout and superb location. Suffolk Secrets are a helpful company. I always need to go and buy big pans and bowls as the ones in the property are not big enough for our hungry family, especially not if we have visitors for supper. The previous guests had clearly had a strong smelling dog, one of the sofas was really pongey. I would offer a premium to anyone at Suffolk Secrets if they could hire this property or any other of this standard for the week leading into August Bank Holiday next year.
