  • A characterful, double-fronted cottage with its traditional flint facade
  • Make family memories in the fabulously large (and very rare for the location) garden and patio screened by hedges and trees for privacy
  • Relax with a book or dine in the conservatory. Explore all Aldeburgh has to offer right on the doorstep
Property code: OC-AL123

The cottage boasts a fantastic location at the far end of Aldeburgh’s high street, giving you easy access to shops and eateries, whilst enjoying the peaceful surroundings of this quiet corner of town. There are some lovely coastal walks from the town to explore with the hounds, taking you to nearby Thorpeness (2 miles). The cottage’s piece de resistance is its gorgeous garden, which is fully enclosed for your canine chums.

The traditional flint property is warm and inviting, with homely accessories and pretty soft furnishings. The lounge is a sociable space, with a choice of comfortable seating to relax on. French doors open into the light-filled conservatory, where you’ll find more comfortable seating, as well as a dining table to seat everyone. Doors lead from here to the garden, making it a great place for the woofers to set up camp. Completing the ground floor is a large dining room, kitchen, and shower room. The four tastefully decorated bedrooms are upstairs (one of which is accessed via its own staircase), along with the family bathroom. The mature, enclosed garden has a large lawn for Rover and Fido to play on, as well as a patio and BBQ for al fresco dining.

You’ll find plenty for you and your hairy sidekicks to see and do in Aldeburgh. The town has a fantastic collection of independent shops and galleries – many of which welcome four-legged visitors – and an excellent range of eateries. You must also make sure you sample the town’s iconic fish and chips! The main beach has a seasonal dog restriction, but just 0.5 miles along the coast is a peaceful shingle beach which welcomes hounds all year. From Aldeburgh, enjoy doggy days out to the unique village at Thorpeness (2 miles) and the seaside resort of Southwold (18.5 miles).

Excellent position, an easy walk to the shops, costal and marsh walks and just over the road from the beach access. There was a large attractive garden and a long washing line for drying swim stuff.We could usually park outside on the road

This is the second time we have stayed at Flint Cottage and we will hopefully be returning again so that in itself is a good recommendation for this property. Popular with us because we like the quirky layout of the cottage and love the big garden which we have always found to be a valuable asset. Also good to know is the on street parking at this Read moreend of the town is very reliable, even though it isn't a bespoke parking place we have never had a problem parking right outside. Not to mention it is only a short walk away from our favourite fish and chip shop and very close to the beach, what more could you ask for?! Hide

The cottage is fabulous and clean ..no cobwebs ...brilliant..just be aware the garden looked huge ? That's the estate agents photos..we thought it was bigger .. maybe put the dimensions of the garden ...other than that perfect location for the dogs as near the marsh walk ..warm and cosy and will definitely be back .

A very lovely place to stay, with everything we need in a wonderful location. Glorious to have the garden on a sunny day, snug in the house when it 's less clement.
