Property code: OC-DRIFT

Escape to this delightfully renovated 1920s cottage right in the heart of the village of Walberswick. Right from the doorstep, outdoor enthusiasts will relish in the endless trails and walking spots to be sniffed out with their four-legged friends.

This period property offers spacious living with a cosy ambience. Sitting proudly as the centrepiece of the room, curl up in front of the intricate wood burner and let furry tummies soak up the warmth. With snuggly sofas in tow, chat to your loved one’s way into the night or hunker down with a good book in the snug room, complete with a sofa bed and TV. The kitchen is ideal for rustling up some family favourites or experimenting with new exotic flavours, before serving up in the large dining space with French doors opening to the garden. When it''s time to lay your head, wander through to the double room on the ground floor or head upstairs, where three tastefully decorated rooms invite you to hit the hay. Make a fresh pot of tea and let the dogs out for a stretch while enjoying the sun trap of the south-facing enclosed garden.

Pull on your walking boots and amble along the local footpaths to lose yourself in the stunning landscape and scenic coastline. For topping up the pantry, shop for locally caught seafood from the fishmongers or dine alfresco at one of many tearooms and harbourside eateries in Walberswick. Hop aboard the ferry to the traditional seaside resort of Southwold, home to a 250m pier and colourful beach huts, perfect for taking some snaps. Also home to a sand and shingle beach, your hound will adore having a paddle at this classic coastal retreat.

Lovely well equipped cottage in a fantastic setting, nice large private garden. Easy walk to the village. We all (large family group) thoroughly enjoyed the long weekend, great sociable space in a terrific location. Booking process was clear and well managed. Would definitely stay here again and would also book other locations with Original CottageRead mores. Hide

Perfect location with good access to walks and beach. Cottage suited our needs and was well fitted out. Could do with more instructions for hot water and appliances.
