What our customers say about their holidays

• Mr King - Verified booking

  We've just returned from a really enjoyable, multi-generational family holiday to include 5 adults, 3 children and a toddler. This venue is ideal and plenty big enough to allow the littlies to run and play inside, during inclement weather! The location is beautiful - on a working arable farm with a racing horse stable - so plenty of activity which fascinated all of us. The Barn is very well appointed with two separate 'wings' either side of the central lounge area and a mezzanine suite - so ideal for separate 'families'. The owners are charming and very accommodating; seeing to any requests promptly. The tennis court is such a boon and we played daily. The small pond enabled pond-dipping and the surrounding hay meadow for bike riding etc. Be mindful that the outdoor swimming pool is only available during the summer months. An ideal 'central location', not far from lovely country pubs, Lidl and Co-op stores, the seaside, pretty villages and child-friendly activities. Check 'Whats on in Suffolk' website. We would recommend this venue and are likely to return.

• Michael - Verified booking

  We liked the property and enjoyed our stay.

  Two disappointments: 1. Advertised charging facility required an access code. We could not find . this. As a result we: - Rang your contact number and were promised someone would get back to us. This never happened. - Would have expected someone to ring and say sorry we can't contact owner to find out code and offer compensation as we then had to charge up on the way home. 2. The wifi code in the handbook was wrong. It showed a capital N where it should have been lower case. Fortunately after a day without service I discovered that the purple scrap of paper advising that there was an additional fridge had the wifi code written correctly. We moved this note into the file at the appropriate point but did not have a pen suitable to write on the laminated page. Other Comments: - we found 2 chipped plates and one cracked glass on arrival - we broke 2 wine glasses So, good stay, but could do better. Mike England

• B Deakins - Verified booking

  A large group of 12 (11 adults aged 27-33, and 1 child aged 5) stayed at Becks Green Barn for the long weekend over New Year and had a wonderful time. The Barn itself as beautiful with wooden beams, wood fire, antique furniture (but all the contemporary fittings you need), and a large dining table and sitting area which meant we all had plenty of room to sit together. The owner is wonderful, and even arranged for the child's first horse ride around the stable - the barn is situated on a working farm, which was a great change from our city lives. They have a lovely, kind natured dog which we all loved saying hello to each day. We made use of the tennis court, but would love to return in the summer to make use of the pool too! Fabulous time, and would certainly book again.

• Mrs Coleman - Verified booking

  Our family of five adults and three children had a very enjoyable weekend at Swallows. Excellent location for the beach and the town. Parking for one car at the property and parking for extra car close by. Downstairs, the entrance hall is large with large walk-in cupboard, the sitting room/kitchen was open plan yet very cosy and comfy. The kitchen is very extremely well equipped. Upstairs, the four bedrooms were a good size with large built in wardrobes with plenty of hanging space plus chest of drawers for more storage. All bedrooms had en-suite shower or bathrooms. Both upstairs and downstairs is very tastefully furnished. All in all, we loved Swallows and wouldn’t hesitate to stay there again if we visit Southwold in the future.

• Mrs Atkin - Verified booking

  Having stayed many times in Southwold both in cottages and at the swan and The Crown inns, this property was up there with the best of them. Spotlessly clean and well appointed , the cottage was very well situated a stones throw away from shops, pubs and the beach and comfortably slept 6 (4 adults and two children who loved their special attic room on the top floor revealed through a hidden door and ‘secret’ staircase). We enjoyed dining al fresco on the sunny terrace and found back gate access useful. All in all a very enjoyable and successful multi generational stay. Parking was easier than expected - we left the car all week in Chester Road opposite the Sole Bay Inn after unloading outside the cottage on arrival.
