About this property

Offering guests the best of both worlds: a tranquil setting with plenty of outside space and yet within a short distance of the vibrant seaside town of Aldeburgh in Suffolk, Woodland Lodge promises guests a holiday to remember. Ideal for a family or group of family and friends together, the holiday cottage is superbly presented and a particular feature is the extensive gardens which are really unusual in a property so close to the centre of town. As well as a large patio area at the front, there are secluded, fully enclosed gardens to the rear which are perfect for any little guests to run around safely and securely while the grown-ups can relax and enjoy chilled out time drinking and dining alfresco. You can imagine spending many hours out here really getting into the holiday vibe. The interior of the property isn’t too shabby either, with a bright and airy open-plan layout, helping to create a real feeling of light and space. Whether you want to enjoy each other’s company and curl up in the ample seating area in front of the attractive woodburning stove, or if you’d rather tune in and zone out watching some fantastic TV or films, Woodland Lodge has got it covered. If you’re feeling hungry then the fully fitted kitchen awaits which has everything needed to create hearty food for the family and with stunning bi-folding doors opening onto the patio next to do the indoor dining area, you can take your pick whether you want to dine inside or outside. Both lend themselves to long, lazy meals together enjoying catching up on holiday tales, so the choice is yours! When it’s time for bed, guests can decide between the fabulous master bedroom or two equally well-presented bedrooms, either a double or a twin. All the bedrooms offer a calm and relaxing space which is perfect for resting weary heads after a tiring day of getting out and about exploring. Talking of getting out, there is so much to see and do in the area, it’s hard to know where to begin. Take a stroll into Aldeburgh which has a great selection of shops and amenities as well as a pebbly beach and what it’s best known for – its range of brightly-coloured beach huts. Aldeburgh Golf Club is nearby if you fancy getting into the swing of a game and the picturesque village of Thorpeness is also close, which is well worth a visit. Jump in the car for attractions such as Snape Maltings, Glemham Hall, Framlingham Castle, Oasis Camel Park and Somerleyton Hall. If it’s all about the beach for you, then grab a bucket and spade and head to Southwold, Dunwich, Walberswick or Thorpeness. For a truly relaxing family holiday close to Aldeburgh, book a visit to Woodland Lodge.

The popular, vibrant seaside town of Aldeburgh is famous for its culture, traditional feel and one of the best fish and chip shops in the country! Aldeburgh and Snape Maltings are home to one of the world’s greatest music festivals and has been named as one of the top 50 places to live in Britain. Crag Path runs along the seafront dividing the beautiful pebbly beach from the unspoilt pastel-coloured seafront properties and the town. The beach is a popular place for groups and couples to enjoy the wonderful fish and chips throughout the summer months. The town is steeped in history and has become a wonderful town for shopping with a good mixture of independent and chain stores to enjoy. The town also offers a good selection of pubs and restaurants or why not buy some freshly caught fish from the huts on the seafront and cook up your own feast at home. For those wishing for a more action-packed holiday there is excellent walking, cycling, sailing and golf at Aldeburgh. Growing in popularity you will want to return to Aldeburgh again and again!

    We took our elderly parents and aunt ,who could move around the lodge with ease. Even bath mats were provided so no slipping in the shower.. Sink in the main bathroom needs some attention as plug not working..would we come back definitely and bring the grandchildren.

    Top quality furnishings within the property. Constant minor improvements, every-time we visit , which demonstrates superb thoughtfulness. Always a nice welcome package, wine & nibbles, with fresh flowers Ideal location for us. Already booked for 2024. Thank you

    We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The only downside was the front door, which is in need of serious attention (previously mentioned in feedback posted in June 2023 & surely the cleaners should have reported this to the owners?). But, we used the french doors in the living room instead. Aldeburgh is a lovely place, and we hope to return to this property next year.
