You’d be barking mad to miss out on a stay in this luxurious townhouse, situated on a quiet street in the seaside town of Southwold. This impressive property has undergone a complete transformation, adding a contemporary twist to an elegant Edwardian home. Explore the villages, culture and cuisine of the Suffolk Heritage Coast, run wild on windswept beaches, or simply put your paws up in this sublime home from home. It’s ideal for family gatherings or special occasions, complete with your four-legged friend.

Set over three floors, this magnificent coastal abode oozes contemporary chic, its neutral colour scheme enhanced with colourful prints, bold patterns, and high-end fixtures and fittings. The heart of this home is a spacious and open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, which spans the length of the entire ground floor. Get comfy post-adventures in the elegant lounge, your pup snoozing in front of the wood burner. Cook up a storm in the exquisite kitchen, then gather around the dining table or throw open the bi-fold doors to dine alfresco on the decking. Alternatively, make use of the outdoor kitchen and BBQ to create magical memories with your pack. When bedtime calls, leave Fido snoozing downstairs in his bed and head upstairs to four generous bedrooms, divided between the first and second floors. With a super-king-size bed, his and hers dressing rooms, seating, a desk for remote working and an en-suite shower room, the master suite on the top floor is the perfect retreat.

Grab a ball and let your pup lead the way to Southwold Beach, just 0.5 miles from this gorgeous home. While seasonal restrictions are in place, you can still amble past colourful beach huts and the quaint pier on a lead, before reaching Denes Beach where your pup can run free. This dog-friendly town welcomes well-behaved pups in many of its shops and eateries, including the Adnams Brewery.

Our holiday at Olive Tree House was lovely. We were here for a birthday celebration with our children and their partners. The open plan kitchen diner lounge is a great social and comfy area for a large group as well as the outside space. The master bedroom is huge and bed very comfy. We had a great night dancing to a tribute disco band at the liRead morettle theatre (by the church) It was Jazz the night before. A walk (or ferry) over to Walberswick is a great day out. There are so many lovely pubs and shops in Southwold and Walberswick and the brilliant beach of course. Although only living in Norfolk we never tire of coming here. Would recommend staying at Olive Tree House and would return. Hide

A nice house. Lots of things that could be improved on mirrors near sockets. Better instructions for using the induction hob and better service from managed services when things went wrong. An expensive house stayed in we have stayed in much better I dont think we would stay there again. Response from holidaycottages.co.uk: Thank you for yRead moreour review.

A perfect location for our family holiday! There were 7 of us, aged between 5 and nearly 75. The location was ideal, and the kitchen was fantastically well-equipped. I hope we can come again another year.

Beautiful house, very well equipped and furnished. The house was spotlessly clean on arrival and there are many lovely furnishings in the house which really make it a home from home. Everything in the house you would need for a holiday and close to the town centre and beach. We would most certainly recommend this property to our friends and family.Read more Hide
