  • "Enjoyed a wonderful week here."

    Fantastic location, beautiful beach. Our 3 year old loved the beach and amusements... as did we! Highly recommend the Well Well Well - the tapas is lovely and in walking distance. Southwold is a lovely place, highly recommend! And if you visit Beccles, would recommend Twyfords Cafe, had a great meal! Thank you for a wonderful stay x

  • "We've had a brilliant week."

    Great location close to beach, we recommend 'Sunrise at Zak's' beachfront café and 'The Jolly Sailors' (make sure you book as it gets very busy). Thanks for a great stay!

    The house is lovely, plenty of room for all of us and close to the beach. Very comfy beds, nice bathrooms - all well equipped. The light fittings are impressive!

  • "We have had a lovely long weekend."

    House perfect for our needs and close to the beach was very handy with a little one, what with the good weather as well, we couldn't have asked for anything more. Only thing was there seems to be no blue recycling bin. P.S found the blue bin down the road :)
