Overview
Property code: OC-TOMILL

Take your favourite four-legged friend to this impressive property located near the picturesque seaside town of Southwold, on the Suffolk coastline, and find a property perfect for a family or friends’ getaway. Southwold is famous for its iconic beach huts and towering lighthouse. The sandy beach at Southwold has restrictions in place for your pup between 1 April to 30 September, but Denes Beach (0.5 miles) welcomes your hound all year round.

This is a beautiful, contemporary property set out over three floors with soft, calming tones and bright pops of colour in the furnishings in the lounge. The lovely open-plan kitchen/diner has a glass roof which floods the space with natural light and is probably the place your pup will find a favourite spot to call home. The kitchen area has a large central island and plenty of workspaces, making it a delight to cook in. Walk through an archway to access the spacious dining area where you can linger over celebratory meals. The lovely, large sitting room with a wood burner and ample comfortable seating is the heart of the house and perfect for socialising. Or, for quieter moments, there is also a separate drawing room. A games room with Smart TV, table football and a pool table is available for some competitive fun. A twin room and a separate shower room complete the ground floor. On the first floor, there are three bedrooms - two super-king-size and one king-size. All three bedrooms have either an en-suite bath or shower. On the second floor, there is a king-size bedroom and a bathroom. Outside, enjoy the walled garden to the rear with furniture and a BBQ. At the front, there is a smaller garden with lovely views across Southwold Common.

Top dogs will love a day on the beach at Walberswick (1 mile), where you can enjoy kite-flying and surfing. Or walkers can head to the village of Reydon (1.5 miles) and enjoy the scenery and nature on a walk by the River Blyth estuary. Alternatively, the seaside town of Aldeburgh (18.5 miles) offers independent boutiques, galleries, iconic sculptures and eateries selling freshly caught seafood.

We love this property for our extended family of 9 (4x households). The luxury of a bathroom/en-suite each and spaciousness of reception rooms is a great feature (especially as this year we didnt use outside the back because of the changeable weather) meant sociable and quiet times are achievable for everyone. We managed to park our four cars as weRead morell, quite a feat in Southwolds busy holiday streets. Hide

Lovely property in a perfect location. As we were a large group the several en suites were much appreciated. Lovely peaceful walled garden. The downstairs bedroom could have benefitted from a wardrobe or hanging space. Although dog friendly, our pet was limited to two rooms only which was not ideal. Apart from that we had a wonderful week and hope Read moreto visit again. Thank you . Hide
