Mrs Harris
We were six friends visiting the house for a couple of days. All of us agreed that the house is spacious, comfortable and well situated. We enjoyed a day exploring Southwold and the beach. All of us agreed that we would like to visit again, for a longer stay; and we would recommend to family and friends. Thank you. C. Harris Hertfordshire.

Inspite of above comments we found the house a perfect place to celebrate a 70 th birthday with the family We were a family of mixed ages and a great time was had by all. The bedrooms provided plenty of space for our group of 10 with very good bathroom facilities as well. The kitchen and lounge were both great for a large group with lots of equipment provided Would highly recommend the house and lovely location.
