Property code: OC-ASHT

Pack your bags and escape to Suffolk’s unspoiled seaside town of Southwold with your canine friend in tow. Bring along five humans for the ride, and enjoy iconic sandy beaches before heading home to an enticing modern abode with high-quality interiors and a garden for your pooch to stretch out in the sunshine.

The property, which boasts underfloor heating, crisp decor and splashes of colour, is warm and welcoming from the moment you step inside. Enjoy group meals at the table set in front of the bi-folding doors to the garden, before getting cosy in the stylish lounge, with the pup curled at your feet. There’s even a window seat and plenty of books to choose from if you fancy some quiet time. When you’re ready for some shuteye, choose from the three modern bedrooms on the first floor, including a twin, a single and a super-king-size with a Smart TV and en-suite shower room. Spend mornings playing with the dog on the lawn of the beautiful garden or tucking into fresh pastries and orange juice at the outdoor table.

Pop on the lead and head out the door and find yourselves in the heart of Southwold, with shops, restaurants and beaches at your disposal. Experience a typical day of bucket-and-spade fun on Southwold’s beach, just 500m away, or simply walk the length of it with your pup, enjoying every sandy-pawed step (seasonal restrictions apply). The town’s famous cannons and lighthouse are a must (1 mile). There are many walking trails nearby too, as well as the Suffolk Coast Path, while further beaches to explore include Walberswick, Dunwich and Covehithe (all within 9 miles).

This is a lovely cottage, in a perfect location. It is central but also in a quiet corner of Southwold. It could do with some more equipment such as travel cot and high chair.

This cottage is generally nicely appointed and in a great location. However, the bathrooms are very cramped and the heating system struggled to bring the house up to temperature, even though it was relatively mild outside for early November.

Overall the cottage was comfortable with nice beds and a comfy lounge. Some of the kitchen equipment is getting very tired. But above all the garden was a disgrace, completely unkempt with weeds all over the patches of lawn. And the garden table was completely unacceptable.

A very lovely and well equipped property in an excellent location. There is a play area nearby which was fantastic for the kids and is easy walking distance to all the main sights of Southwold. I wouldnt recommend to parents of young children though as there are no child locks or window restrictors, unless these have been fitted since our stay (worRead moreth checking). Hide
