Guests appreciate its proximity to the town centre, beach, and local amenities, all within walking distance. The well-equipped property boasts lovely gardens and is perfect for family stays, though the low ceilings in bedrooms may require caution for taller individuals.

The property is consistently described as very clean, with multiple reviews highlighting its spotless condition, contributing to a high level of guest satisfaction.

Location

About this property

This spacious, detached family home provides an ideal getaway for up to six guests, offering ample social space for a group gathering. It is surrounded by a lush private garden in the popular Suffolk resort town of Aldeburgh.

The large living room serves as the hub of the home, featuring comfortable sofas, a Smart TV, and a reading nook with armchairs overlooking the garden and distant marshes. The contemporary kitchen is fully equipped for culinary creativity, and adjacent to the kitchen, the dining area boasts a large wooden table with seating for six. There’s also a delightful sunroom with two rattan sofas — the perfect spot for morning coffee. A utility room and a cloakroom complete the ground floor. Upstairs, the master bedroom features a super-king-size bed (convertible into twin beds upon request) and an en-suite shower room. The second bedroom offers a king-size bed with garden views, while the third bedroom is another spacious, super-king-size room, also convertible into twin beds. Both of these bedrooms share a family bathroom along with a separate WC. Outside, the surrounding gardens are mainly laid to lawn, with the rear garden boasting two beautiful oak trees, and a patio with a dining table and chairs.

Discover the charm of Aldeburgh and take a leisurely stroll along the pebble beach, or explore the town's quaint streets filled with boutique shops, art galleries, and cosy cafes. Don't miss a visit to the renowned Aldeburgh fish and chip shop, a local culinary institution. For a cultural experience, venture to the nearby Snape Maltings (4.5 miles), hosting concerts, art exhibitions, and unique shopping experiences. Nature enthusiasts can explore the stunning rspb Minsmere Reserve (8 miles) or the nearby Aldeburgh Marshes (1.5 miles). A mile away, the neighbouring holiday village of Thorpeness offers a traditional seaside retreat with boat hire on the Meare and a long sandy beach to enjoy.
