  • "Loved our stay at the property."

    Excellent location in the town and close to everything. Our Whippet loved it too and thanks very much for the welcome pack of goodies. Only minor feedback would be that it would be nice to have shower gel or shampoo provided in the bathroom. We hope to return soon!

    Hi We are so glad you liked the stay. I will be in touch with the housekeepers as there should have been a small sachet of shower gel and one of shampoo provided for each guest! I can only apologise for the hiccup to the expected service. Kind regards Neil. Property Owner

  • "We had a lovely stay at Alinka."

    It’s a perfect location for the beach and the high street. The bed is very comfortable and the kitchen had everything we could need. The only slight downside were the bins from the restaurant next door were slightly smelly and didn’t create the best first impression. Appreciate this can’t be changed but it does impact the experience of the visit. Overall, the little cottage was great for our short stay.

    Thank you so much for your kind feed back. We are glad the cottage worked for you. (Beach and high street access etc). We are of course not pleased to read of the issue with neighbouring restaurant bins. We have been in touch with the Restaurant Group, Regional and onsite management teams regarding this issue and they have assured us they are working hard to resolve the situation, not least by arranging for more frequent bin collections, but also staff training regarding the handling of waste and ensure the bins are closed completely. We are seeing an improvement. Once again thanks for your feed back and we hope you will come back again in the near future. N Property Owner

  • "This was our second stay and we love the cottage."

    A little repaint would be advised in the next few months internally. Apart from that it is great.

    Thank you for your kind feed back. The interior of the property was given a repaint in January with the kitchen and sitting room and stairwell all getting a freshen up. We are in the envious situation that available time between guest is limited all year, however we took this note to heart and closed up for two weeks to get the cottage back to a tip top condition. Thank you for being a repeat visitor and please do come again. N Property Owner

  • "We really enjoyed our stay."

    A smart TV with WiFi would be perfect for people from other countries- a newer one.

    So glad you enjoyed your stay. Your feed back on the TV is noted and when the present TV is replaced we will look to include your suggestion. One option which we use ourselves, is to travel with an HDMI cable. This allows a Lap top or similar to be used in connection with the Wifi-Internet to watch online content and feed it to the big screen. Once again, thank yo for your feed back and suggestion N Property Owner

  • "A charming cute comfortable cottage in excellent location for access to beach, shops, restaurants and walks."

    We had fantastic few days with great weather so no need to venture too far! Cottage very well equipped and decorated. Would highly recommend for short stay although the daybed in second bedroom fine for a younger child but not quite so comfy for adults!

    Thank you for your kind comments. We are pleased when the cottage is used by three adult guests as it provides a great value for money proposition in the location. However, it was set up as a 'sleeps 2 (double) plus 1 (for baby or child). A full size bed in the smaller room would make it a very cramped space. We will continue to review the options as new furniture designs come onto the market and keep an open mind with regard to making a change. Once again thank you for your kind comments and feed back.

  • "A beautiful cottage that was clean and very close to the beach and high street."

    We did very much enjoy our stay. The only downside was the house is nestled between Prezzo and a local bar & resturant. Generally it’s fine but some nights there was a lot of noise coming from the Prezzo staff on cigarette breaks, which was quite disruptive. Otherwise, a very lovely house and the owners were accommodating and let us arrive a few hours early.

    Dear Sir thank you for your kind words. I am sorry that the Prezzo staff impacted your stay. I have been in touch with the regional manager to ask the restaurant team to have greater consideration for their neighbours. Being located in the middle of town and near the facilities and beach does come with the issue of potential noise from visitors, but this should not come from the restaurants, especially not late at night. I thank you for the alert and I am sure the Prezzo team will respond positively going forward. Kind regards N Property Owner

  • "A wonderful and charming cottage in the heart of Aldeburgh, so close to the sea."

    All the amenities you need and more. We had a fab time, and our dog Charlie also had the best time, entrance via a back gate makes it easy to clean off paws before entering the house. Would highly recommend. Note stairs are typical of older cottages so small and tight and steep, so take care going up and down.

  • "We had a wonderful stay at Alinka, everything was very clean, the beds were comfortable and we had everything we needed."

    The cottage is very quaint and cosy, with the beach a short walk from the doorstep, the town of Aldeburgh has a host of interesting shops and wonderful fish and chips to take away and eat by the sea shore. We loved everything about our short break and we would definately return in the future.

  • "Lovely property in an ideal location."

    Despite being small (as described), the cottage had everything we needed for a short stay, with high quality appliances and fittings. We loved being able to walk so quickly to the seafront.

  • "The property was expensive for the standard offered, however overall acceptable, outside the front very poor all the large rubbish bins from next door with the lids open so the pigeons are accessing and the rood and pavements covered with cigarette ends."

    We have pictures' if you reply with an email we can reply to.

    Thank you for your feedback. I was very sorry to read of the appearance at the front. I have been in direct touch with Prezzo regional management, the restaurant next door, to call them out on the bins and cigarette ends. They advise that they have been working extra hard to keep the location tidy but I am not sure the head office message is reaching the local management team! Thank you for the offer to send pictures this will help to get the restaurant management team's attention once again. I hope you had a good time and the weather was agreeable. Property Owner
