Contemporary, cool and canine-approved, this stylish holiday home invites groups with pets to explore Southwold. Located at the top of the High Street, this bijou abode is perfectly positioned for discovering this much-loved Suffolk town on foot (or on four paws). Let Rover lead the way down to the coast or along to the fishing village of Walberswick (1 mile), picking up some fresh fish and chips – and a treat for your pooch – to enjoy while sitting by the sea. Back at home, this cosy cottage hosts three or four guests (using an optional trundle bed in the single room) and one dog, making it an ideal choice for small families or couples.
Despite its traditional exterior, complete with pretty flowers climbing the stone walls, the interior of this property has been thoroughly modernised to create a comfortable and stylish base. Put your best paw forward and step inside to find a warm, welcoming lounge with a Scandi-style wood burner, perfect for keeping toes and paws toasty after a long walk by the sea. Next door, a dine-in kitchen provides a comfortable space for mealtimes. Let your dog rest peacefully downstairs as you head up to the first floor, where a king-size and a single bedroom await. Both are served by a refreshing family bathroom, also on this level.
Owing to its central location, there’s no private outdoor space, but with the beach less than half a mile away, you won’t need it. Spend time on Southwold’s attractive shoreline, strolling up to the pier and the model boat pond (both 0.5 miles) with Fido at your heel. In summer, some beach sections have dog restrictions, but Denes Beach (1 mile) welcomes pups all year round. Alternatively, enjoy a scenic hike along the River Blyth and into the beautiful Suffolk countryside.
