  • "We have nothing to add which is different to other guest reviews - it is centrally located, we liked it was set back from the High Street, it is well equipped, like a home from home and it was a lovely cottage."

    We loved the velum window so we could hear the ocean (and seagulls) and we certainly felt that we deserved some great food from the very good dining options, after going up and down the stairs!

    Dear Jane, thank you for taking the time to write such a lovely review. Kind Regards, Ian and Fiona Property Owner

  • "This is literally home from home!"

    It had absolutely everything that we needed. And on top of this, this was an extremely cosy pad to spend a few days in. The extra bonus was the position of this property. We enjoyed walking down to the shops without having needed to take the car. Would love to return. Thank you for the wine and biscuits, which we appreciated.

    Dear Naomi, thank you very much for your lovely review. We do hope you will return at some point. Regards Ian and Fiona Property Owner

  • "Really lovely cottage, well laid out."

    Tasteful and well appointed with top quality equipment and comfy beds. Everything you could possibly need. Friendly and helpful owner, and also housekeeper. Good communication. Great central location on a quiet street just off the High Street. No problem parking. Nice to look over the rooftops and see the sea from the top floor. We've just come back from a super fortnight and didn't want to leave. Usually feel a little homesick by the end, but not here!

    Dear Howard, thank you for your review. We are very pleased you had a great stay. Thank you for your kind words. Ian & Fiona Property Owner

  • "Cottage comfy, clean and bright."

    Very well equipped kitchen which leads out to sheltered decking area. Cottage in great location for high street and beach and we didn't have a problem parking. Owner welcoming and easy to communicate with. We would recommend a stay here!

  • "This was a wonderful cottage which had everything we needed."

    The host was proactive with communication and ensured that our stay was a memorable one. The location of the cottage is excellent and I would thoroughly recommend it to anyone wishing to stay in the Aldeburgh area.

  • "The cottage is in an ideal location just round the corner from the High Street and beach, but is tucked away on a quiet road."

    We loved being able to walk everywhere and to be so close to the sea. The sound of the waves and the sea views from our bedroom were so relaxing. The cottage was immaculately clean and was so cosy, well planned and welcoming. We’ve returned home with lots of very happy memories from our stay at 6 Coastguard Cottages.

  • "We had an enjoyable stay."

    It was comfortable, clean and convenient for the high street and beach. There are three flights of quite steep stairs between the kitchen and master bedroom that may be a challenge for those with mobility issues.

  • "Dishwasher was patchy."

    Salt and rinse aid were ok. No dishwasher cleaner. So we washed by hand a lot. Not a big issue Low on places to hang wet washing as there is no tumble dryer. Don’t get me wrong not a complaint - observation. Lovely property had a great time

    So sorry to hear about the dishwasher. We really care about our cottage and that our guests have a lovely holiday and we are always on hand to help. As mentioned in our welcome text we are happy to be contacted if there are any questions or issues. We would have loved the opportunity to get the dishwasher fixed for you during your stay. We have now requested a local company to either repair or replace the dishwasher. Whilst we supply a clothes horse we accept that it is difficult to dry a lot of wet items during the colder months, I hope this wasn't too much of a problem. Thank you for your feedback, it really helps. Property Owner

  • "Great house, fantastic location."

    Well decorated, good facilities. All the shops and restaurants are just around the corner, a 2 minute walk at most, but because the house is set back it is very quiet and peaceful. close to the beach, parking wasn't a problem, although I imagine in summer there is a bit more competition for that. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend booking this property.
