"Thank you for a lovely stay."
The house is brilliantly located with the beach, pubs and restaurants so close by. The house is very homely and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay and some self- catering. We are keen to return. Our only issue was the limited space in the main bedroom given it is small size with a king size bed. We felt that room was dusty due to my sneezing in that room - the limited space around the bed may make it hard for the cleaners to hoover underneath (which looked like it hadn’t seen a hoover for a while). Otherwise perfect stay

"Great little cottage and well equipped."
A few things I would like to mention; no hand soap in the property, downstairs bathroom, kitchen or upstairs bathroom which I would expect. There was neals yard hand lotion.
And the upstairs bathroom blind is not good for any privacy as it is see-through and a little dirty at the bottom; a solid blind would be preferable and allow complete privacy and make you feel less vulnerable!
The under lighting in the kitchen didn’t work over the cooker and patio door end and completely went off on occasions. So maybe a loose connection somewhere?
The front window blind runner came off twice and we fixed and the big left blind at the back is tricky to pull open and I worry this cord will break.
The front door knob/handle needs tightening up.
If these improvements could be done as we would like to stay again possibly next year.
Hope this is helpful.

"Lovely layout of the cottage, well thought out, lots of character."
Great fold out doors onto the sunny courtyard garden.
Situated right in the centre of town, straight out of the door and a stone's throw away from the beach. Only 30 minutes parking outside, but enough to load/unload and then free parking for the week was not far away.
Dog loved it too!

"Lovely cottage and location."
Perfect for a short stay. The cottage felt very homely and the kitchen was well equipped. Others had left behind washing up liquid and soap in the bathrooms, but we took our own anyway.
The only issue was with parking, we had to park half a mile away and getting everything to the cottage was hard work and when we went out of Southwold finding a space when we got back took time.
Southwold beach is beautiful and the sunrise was worth the early start!

"Another wonderful week at Dolphin."
The cottage has had some great updates in the kitchen and bathroom which gave it a fresh feel. The garden was lovely - it’s the first time we have been in the summer and hadn’t realised the garden got sun all day. We loved the fact there were bird feeders and food provided - it was lovely to top them up each day then sit and watch the birds. The kitchen is really well equipped and comes with a generous supply of cleaning products as well as a lovely welcoming bottle of wine and cookies! A great cottage in a wonderful location.

"Lovely cottage had a great week
Very petty I know but having spent £1000 on rental you provide 1 toilet roll for the week !"
,,,
We are very happy to hear that you loved you holiday at Dolphin Cottage, and thank you for rating it so highly for comfort! We will flag the toilet rolls with the housekeeper to ensure more are left for our guests. Best of Suffolk are always on hand to help during your stay should you need anything, and Dolphin Cottage is a few steps away from Southwolds main shops if you require any extras.

"Dolphin Cottage was well maintained, very clean, and in a great location 60yds from beach, 40 yds from pub."
It had everything we required and a bit more. The only criticism was the bunk beds were very hard and really unsuitable for an adult. However would definitely recommend

Alot of care has gone into ensuring the property is well maintained, as well as being in the perfect location to enjoy Southwold and the sandy beaches, and hope we are welcoming you back again soon!

"Nice welcoming pack, generously equipped and carefully furnished."
Would have liked a guide to help with how things worked but we are resourceful (eg wi-fi password found on back of router). Position of bins is a bit of a nightmare. Fortunately, I have a reputation for being incredibly skinny.
Thanks to the accommodation we had a fantastic reunion with our children and grandchildren, who also rented houses in the area.
Thank you for this lovely review. It is wonderful to hear how much you and your family enjoyed both staying at Dolphin Cottage and having a family reunion in Southwold! We hope to welcome you back again soon.

"Well equipped property, very clean and tidy."
We did have a minor issue with the dishwasher on the last evening, as the quick wash didn’t seem to run the programme.
Thank you for your kind feedback. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed your time at Dolphin Cottage, and that everything was very clean and comfortable for you.
We appreciate you flagging the issue with the dishwasher with us, and can assure you that we have had an engineer attend and the dishwasher is back up running and fully functional.
