  • "Lovely property, tucked away, but still central."

    We enjoyed our stay very much.

  • "The property description clearly describes a washer dryer but there is in fact just a washing machine with no drying function."

    Slightly annoying when the family packed thinking we could easily wash & dry a change of clothes. Raised with Best Of Suffolk during our stay and no reply.

  • "Thanks for the welcome pack."

    We could not find the visitors book. We had dinner each of our 3 night in the local restaurants recommended in the information folder. The Swan and Crown were very good for food, service and all round hospitality. The Sutherland was very disappointing. The food was not freshly cooked, service very quick, giving the sense that it was organised to suit the staff and not the customer. The bathroom light may need to be replaced as it was constantly flickering. We really enjoyed our stay in Sweet Pea and plan to return. Southwold is a lovely place to visit and explore.

  • "Lovely cottage in a central location, but tucked away from the main routes."

    Lovely front and back garden but in need of some cleaning and maintenance to gardens. Possibly a bistro table in front to catch that evening sun would be good! Beds very comfy, kitchen has everything one needs and plastic stuff for children was amazing to find. Main bathroom, side of bath panel has water damage and is warped, around window tiles could do with some cleaning of general black mould but appreciate it’s been a damp summer. It would also be an idea to trim the Laurels at the side and clean it up so one could sit on the bench - possible some wasps nest in these which was a small issue. Despite this very small things, it was a wonderful holiday and we would absolutely return without hesitation.

  • "We had a lovely stay at Sweet Pea."

    The property was light and airy, tastefully decorated and very comfortable. It had all the equipment we needed for our stay. The location was excellent and very handy for getting to the High Street and local beaches which was good for us since we arrived by public transport. The welcome basket was a lovely touch and much appreciated.

    Nice to stay in a well designed modern development.

  • "Property was clean and had all amenities and a great location."

    That said the listing cited the property as dog friendly when it is not - low open shelves containing plates, bowls, no garden for dog to toilet - we didn't think that would be a problem as the description states that it is next to a large green, which it is. It fails to mention that dogs are banned from the grass. Also parking was an absolute nightmare. It states plenty of street parking - there is not. Each day we had to search for ages for a parking space and ended up a 15 min walk away - we were told that is normal for Southwold, but as this was our first visit it was a shock

  • "The house is great and centrally located."

    The rooms are well equipped and comfortable Only thing missing in kitchen was a toaster (unless it was hidden!!). Welcome gift was a very lovely touch too.

  • "Very comfortable stay in Sweet Pea."

    Really good location. A few practical suggestions. We arrived after dark and struggled to locate the property initially. A torch is essential after dark. Also already mentioned in visitors book we had difficulty locating the cutlery drawer. Overall we really enjoyed our stay.

The property

Occupying a sought-after location in the heart of the delightful coastal town of Southwold in Suffolk, Sweet Pea offers immaculately presented accommodation, ideal for a family or couples travelling together.

The open-plan layout lends itself to a truly sociable space and is just perfect for the family to gather and enjoy lots of quality holiday time together.

There is an inviting seating area, an elegant dining area with an attractive rustic dining table designed for sociable family meals together and a fully fitted kitchen equipped with everything that is needed to create some delicious food for the whole family.

A patio door leads outside onto the south-facing terrace where you can enjoy time drinking and dining alfresco on the outdoor table and benches.

A highly convenient playground runs alongside the property and is ideal for tiring out the little ones in the family!

Hopefully all that fresh air will have tired everyone out, so guests can choose from a sumptuously appointed king-size bedroom or a stylish twin.

A family bathroom completes the accommodation.

Waking up in the morning is a joy at Sweet Pea, so after breakfast or a quick coffee on the patio, it’s time to pack a bag and head out for the day.

There is so much to see and do in around the house, it can be hard to know where to begin.

Take a stroll into Southwold which has a good selection of shops and amenities as well as a pier and a lighthouse, and also within walking distance is the charming village of Walberswick, which has a couple of lovely traditional pubs.

A little further away are attractions such as RSPB Minsmere, Snape Maltings, home to Aldeburgh Music Festival, Halesworth Museum, Adnams Brewery, Melford Hall and Go Ape Thetford.

Sweet Pea has all the ingredients for a delightful family holiday.
