Discover abundant space and stylish décor in this contemporary cottage – a pet-friendly haven for you and your dogs. You’ll find this canine-compatible abode in the beautiful seaside town of Southwold, a beloved holiday destination on Suffolk’s stunning coastline. Just a tennis ball’s throw from the beach (500 metres) and the town’s pier, you’ll enjoy by-the-sea attractions and scenic views as you stroll with your four-pawed pal. The property offers comfort and cosiness for two guests and two furry friends, making it an ideal choice for dog-loving couples. Sun-soaked and scenic, this two-storey property is a joy to unwind in. Step into the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner where you can put your feet (and paws!) up on a slow morning or restful evening. A beautifully tiled kitchen is ready for you to cook up a storm – why not pick up some local produce from town, and a treat or two for Rover while you’re at it? Take meals outside through the French doors and dine in the secure, enclosed patio space while your pups explore safely. Also outside, you'll find a private parking space for one car. Back indoors, the first floor features a double bedroom, a separate dressing room, and two bathrooms – one with a shower and one with a bath. Each morning, walk the short 0.5-mile route into the heart of town and soak up Southwold’s charm. Enjoy an early morning treat from one of the local bakeries or cafés, and admire the iconic lighthouse by the water’s edge. For a longer walk, take Fido to the neighbouring village of Walberswick (2 miles), crossing the river via the passenger ferry in summer. This traditional fishing village boasts a sand and shingle beach that’s completely pet-friendly, allowing your dog to splash in the sea to their heart’s content.

A lovely property, well furnished and everything provided, big comfortable bed and great shower. Location near beach with a view of the sea. Parking off-street right outside the front door which in Southwold is a bonus.

Perfect location - literally yards from the beach and promenade and a very easy walk into town for the shops and restaurants.

This is a lovely house for a couple to stay in with an unenclosed patio so not suitable if you have a dog. The fixtures and fittings are lovely and a lot of care has obviously been taken to make it a great place to stay. Upstairs is lovely with two bathrooms and a dressing room.
