4 Bed Cottage in Aldeburgh

About this property

Sleeping eight guests across four restful bedrooms, this double-fronted home is a spacious retreat, perfect for group getaways. It is conveniently situated in Aldeburgh's High Street, only a 200-metre stroll from the beach. When you return from a day on the sand, you can chill out in the sunny conservatory or make the most of the large garden with its sweeping lawn and handy BBQ.

Upon entry, guests are welcomed into the cosy lounge with comfortable seating and French doors leading to a light-filled conservatory with a table for eight. Prepare a feast in the sizeable kitchen and enjoy a meal in the atmospheric dining room with its wood flooring and period doors or dine al fresco on the garden patio. There is also a shower room on the ground floor. When night falls, take the stairs to the four bedrooms located upstairs: two doubles and two twins. With light decor, sloping ceilings, and stylish furniture, each bedroom is incredibly inviting – and one of the twins is accessed via a separate set of stairs. They share an additional bathroom with a bath, separate shower and WC. When the sun is shining, enjoy some downtime on the patio outside, complete with garden furniture and a BBQ or take a wander around the large, lawned garden.

Within half a mile of the house, you can explore the independent shops and galleries of Aldeburgh and visit the Moot Hall. Built in the 16th century, the Moot Hall now houses Aldeburgh's Museum. Take a stroll down the shingle beach, admiring Sir Benjamin Britten’s Scallop Sculpture, dedicated in 2003. Delicious fish and chips can be enjoyed in town, too. If you're looking to explore further afield, the House in the Clouds in Thorpeness is 2.5 miles away, and both the Parham Airfield Museum and the Bentwaters Cold War Museum are just 11 miles away.
