Property code: OC-PIL

Located on the stunning coast of Suffolk, this pastel-coloured chocolate-box cottage is perfect for those looking to escape to the seaside. Along with your furry companion, stroll along the shoreline or go mutts for al fresco dining by packing up a picnic for the family to enjoy. At the end of the day, chase sticks in the enclosed courtyard garden or pop to the shops to fill up on film-night snacks.

This charming cottage provides a relaxing stay for humans and pooches, who are more than welcome to make themselves at home too. Cosy up with your canine companion in front of the large bay window and watch the world go by or curl up with a good book in front of the roaring wood burner-effect gas fire. When furry tummies are rumbling, rustle up some memorable eats in the compact country-style kitchen, where dogs can roam the adjoining courtyard garden through the French doors. Wash off the day''s sandy feet and paws in the downstairs walk-in shower, whilst upstairs, two guest bedrooms boast a good night’s sleep. From the master bedroom, glorious views overlooking the sea are bound to provide you with the get-up-and-go needed for your morning dog walk, or wake up little ones in the twin room and head out for breakfast on the move.

Right from your doorstep, this cottage provides easy exploration of the colourful seaside town of Aldeburgh. Walk 100 metres from your base to discover the shoreline of Aldeburgh Beach, a sandy and shingle stretch where hounds are welcome outside of the summer months. Sample the local seafood by dining in one of the many award-winning fish and chip restaurants – but don’t forget a chip or two for man’s best friend!

A lovely cottage on the High Street, very close to restaurants, pubs, shops and only a few minutes walk to the beach. Very quiet, despite being on the High Street. We will be staying here again.

Good location,clean and cosy cottage,the welcome pack was very nice. Toilet downstairs should be advised about as difficult for older or less able people.The electrics tripped twice,the toaster is partially broken and the bedroom door only shuts after pulling hard due to sticking on carpet.and the tv upstairs has no signal so redundant,I have notedRead more these in the maintenance book.Without these faults I would have given top marks.

Grubby, poorly equipped, very tired property. Obvious lack of investment with oven not working, window blinds broken and general air of neglect. Even the milk provided in the welcome pack was a week past BBE date. Not impressed.
