About this property

This quirky coastal home, which looks out over the North Sea, has direct access to Aldeburgh seafront and high street and is both well-presented and fully equipped. This self-catering cottage is several hundred years old with nooks and crannies adding to its seaside charm and the French windows in the sitting room providing a view across the beach to the sea.

The location is key at this traditional seaside cottage. Simply open the front door and breathe in the fresh seaside air and look across to the sea. Inside, the cottage is furnished with antiques, artworks and oriental rugs providing this holiday home with a traditional look and style. On the ground floor, you’ll find a spacious kitchen and dining area with plenty of equipment to whip up culinary delights and a dining table comfortably seating all your guests. The twin bedroom is on this floor as well, which features a door to a small courtyard. Next to this room is a stylish wet room with a shower, basin and WC. Head up to the first floor where you’ll discover the colourful living room with wonderful sea views through the French windows.

King Street and Crag Path, are very quiet areas of the town with very little traffic, providing guests with the tranquillity they may be seeking on their Suffolk break. But one of the main draws of this cottage is its proximity to local amenities including pubs and shops – 200 metres and 150 metres respectively – as well as the beach, which is less than 100 metres away, making this cottage a very desirable option for those looking for a holiday on the Suffolk coast. The town focuses on locally sourced produce and fishermen still pull their colourful boats up on the shingle beach and sell fresh fish from their picturesque huts. You can buy it fresh to cook in your kitchen or you can visit the many renowned eateries dotted about town. Aldeburgh and the surrounding area have inspired many authors and poets, one of the most famous being Benjamin Britten, who founded the Aldeburgh Music Festival. This festival enjoys worldwide acclaim and is held every year in June at Snape Maltings.
