A trip to the Vintage House situated just a short walk from Aldeburgh in Suffolk has to be seen to be believed and is the perfect venue for a family holiday or two couples on holiday together.
From the minute you step into the perfectly curated property, you are transported back to the 1920s with authentic furniture and fixtures and fittings but with all the creature comforts you would expect from a holiday home.
The sitting room is warm and welcoming and has an inviting open fire as a focal point, making it the perfect spot to curl up together and get warm in front of the fire while planning your holiday activities.
The stylish kitchen has an original ornamental range cooker as well as a functional cooker and fridge so you can prepare and serve up food for the whole party.
When it’s time to eat, take a seat in the elegant dining room which comes complete with an open fire and is just made for gathering together for long, lazy meals.
Continuing the 1920s and 1930s theme, there is even a room upstairs dedicated to telling the story of the house with memorabilia and photos for guests to look at, helping to give a fascinating insight into the house and its history.
The gardens are a particular feature with ample lawns to the front and rear and a patio area with table and chairs in the south-facing front garden, perfect for alfresco entertaining.
When it’s time for bed, take your pick from the two authentically presented bedrooms, a double and a twin, with a delightful bathroom which boasts a feature roll-top bath; make sure you get to have a long soak in it during your holiday!
After a quick coffee in the morning, it's time to head out and explore.
The vibrant town of Aldeburgh is just a short walk and has plenty to offer visitors from shops, pubs, cafes, boutiques and restaurants.
Snape Maltings is a must-visit while you’re in the area with the concert hall the venue for the famous Aldeburgh Music Festival and next to it a carefully curated collection of boutiques and galleries worth a browse.
Other seaside towns worth a visit include Southwold, Thorpeness, Dunwich and Great Yarmouth.
Walks, hikes and cycle rides anywhere within the Suffolk Coast and Heaths Area of Natural Outstanding Beauty promise to be rewarded with fantastic photo opportunities and if you like to get close to nature then there’s also RSPB Minsmere.
Take a trip back in time with a visit to The Vintage House which promises a holiday to be remembered for all the right reasons.
