  • "We returned to Seal Cove after staying there the previous year."

    It is such a lovely light space to relax in. But also so comfortable, well equipped and a well organised space so a pleasure to stay in. The location is also great. Thank you.

  • "Very conveniently situated and well furnished and equipped and presented holiday home."

    The 20 or so steps to to the property should be mentioned in the particulars.

  • "While the property itself was nice and clean, I was very disappointed to find stains on pillow protectors and on the duvet."

    The property including the communal staircase is ready for redecoration. The property is well placed and nice and modern.

  • "The bedroom curtains are not sufficient, we had to hang blankets and ultimately buy eye masks!"

    Black out blinds required. Otherwise wonderful apartment in a perfect location.

  • "We have stayed in this property before but have always found the beds too hard and the quilts too heavy."

    The toilet in the en-suite doesn’t flush well and the shower is very slow in draining the water so the shower tray fills up very quickly. Otherwise a very comfortable bright and cheerful accommodation and nicely furnished.

  • "Just a perfect property that works so well for a holiday and has a perfect location to the town and the surrounding town and facilities ie shops, sea, walks etc."

    a good level and standard of equipment . Shall be back again as such an easy, enjoyable and relaxing holiday and place to stay.

  • "Delightful property (we've stayed here before) badly let down by very poor customer service."

    Advertised as having Wifi (important to me, as I needed to complete some work on-line), but Wifi not working when we arrived (booked to stay 8th - 12th May). We had not been advised of this problem, so had to contact Admin, & was told the router had developed a fault the previous day (Bank Holiday w/e) and we'd been sent an email advising this (we never received one!), but a new router should arrive next day (Tues) or Wed at the latest. Received an email on Tuesday to say there was a "delay in transit" & the router should be installed by Wed or Thurs at the latest. No further comms from Sykes, router still not appeared by the time we left on Friday! I can't understand why a router could not have been sourced within a day or so (I could have got one myself from Amazon with next day delivery), and there can be no excuse for lack of information from the management team. All in all, a very poor experience from property management, which caused significant inconvenience and marred our stay.

The property

Offering a chic hideaway in the heart of Southwold in Suffolk, Seal Cove is the perfect holiday destination for couples or small families.

A particular feature of the property is its stunning roof terrace, which enables holiday makers to enjoy plenty of time alfresco whilst still being within walking distance of the bustling seaside town of Southwold.

Stepping inside from the roof terrace on the second-floor, you find yourself in a fabulous open-plan living space where there is a superb fully fitted kitchen, which houses everything you could possibly need to rustle up fantastic food for the rest of the party.

The elegantly presented dining table is the perfect place to pull up a chair and sit down to eat together and really get into the holiday spirit.

To relax and chill out, there is a generous seating area complete with a comfy sofa, TV for entertainment and views out onto the roof terrace and beyond.

When it’s time for bed, it’s not far to go to find either a sumptuous king-size or the stylish twin; both are equally well presented and offer a relaxing sanctuary of calm after a tiring day.

In the morning, grab a quick bath or shower and enjoy a coffee on the terrace before heading out for the day.

Stroll into Southwold and discover its magnificent beach and pier plus it has some great shops and eateries to explore and is home to the famous Adnams Brewery.

Within walking distance is the picture-postcard village of Walberswick which has a couple of popular traditional pubs and great crabbing opportunities along its sandy beach.

You can even buy fresh fish from any of the fish huts along the harbour.

For a scenic drive to some nearby attractions, check out Framlingham Castle, Halesworth Museum, Adventure Island Play Park, Easton Farm Park, Africa Alive and Oasis Camel Park.

The whole area is a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, so there are loads of great walks, hikes and cycle rides to undertake as well as golfing and sailing opportunities too.

Grab a picnic and head to beaches at Aldeburgh, Dunwich, Kessingland and Thorpeness.

Offering a stunning getaway in the heart of Southwold, Seal Cove offers a truly memorable holiday.
