A charming stay awaits at this delightful Victorian cottage in pretty Southwold, a sought-after coastal town with a traditional pier and colourful beach huts. It’s located on the edge of a pretty green, right next to the promenade, with the beach just 200 metres away. The accommodation has got space for six humans and one pet, so is excellently suited to a family holiday or restorative break among friends.

With its homely rural decor and intimate dimensions, this comfortable and stylish property is sure to impress guests. Look out for inspiring touches like seaside-themed artwork on the walls, floral curtains, quaint mullioned windows and full bookshelves where you’re free to help yourself to a good read. The well-equipped kitchen is sure to motivate keen chefs, with late breakfasts and hearty dinners to be savoured in the light-filled dining room. In the lounge, a Smart TV stands ready to entertain in the evenings, while a cosy wood burner is on hand to keep you warm during the cooler months. You’ll have access to a small courtyard at the rear, which is handy for keeping bikes and beach equipment during your seaside stay.

In the streets surrounding your holiday dwelling, you can visit pubs, cafes and independent shops to explore. There’s lots to do nearby without taking the car, whether that’s tucking into a salty bag of chips as you watch the sunset or absorbing outstanding sea views from the top of Southwold Lighthouse (300 metres). Craving a tranquil setting? Head to one of the villages nearby such as Walberswick (1.5 miles), known for its scenic nature walks and rich wildlife of seabirds, deer and seals.
