    "We had a very nice stay at Mariners Cottage."

    The Cottage has everything you need to enjoy a self catering holiday. The accommodation was clean and fresh on arrival. It is in a very good location for all the local amenities. Our negatives would be that the Shower/toilet is extremely compact and does not lend itself well for anyone who is tall but is manageable. The shower cubicle itself is large enough once you are in it. You have to be mindful that there is no bannister on the steep staircase so care is of the essence when going up or down. The outside courtyard is in dire need of a good clean up to rid the area of weeds, cobwebs etc - this could be a very pleasant area to sit in nice weather but not as it is at present. All in all a good holiday Cottage which we enjoyed.

    "A cosy cottage in a great location."

    Generally well equipped although I don’t think the second bedroom would be suitable for two. We had a lovely weekend. Our only complaints were that the single bed was not made up on our arrival and the outdoor courtyard, which could be a delightful communal space, was not well maintained and not very inviting. The shower room was fine for us but would be a problem for some as it is so confined.

    "Cozy cottage perfect for couples for a short stay."

    Clean and within easy distance of main high street. Bathroom extremely small which was a struggle for my husband who is tall. Would definitely visit again for a long weekend.

    "So , lovely small cottage , very clean, well equipt ."

    Ideal for short stay, shower small for tall men ! Gubbins under tv , various bits could be tidied up . Lovely little shared courtyard , needed tiding , weeding would make it much more inviting for alfresco dining . The childrens bunk beds, although nicely finished are badly designed , unsafe for young children .

    "Mariners Cottage was a wonderful holiday home, beautifully furnished, stylish and extremely comfortable."

    Enjoyed using the courtyard for outside eating (and meeting the lovely neighbours!). One of the best cottages ever stayed in. Only 5 minutes from the shore, so easy to enjoy 'living' in Aldeburgh and also to walk along the coast in both directions. And a great base for exploring further afield. Loved it! Highly recommended.

ALDEBURGH

Thorpeness 2.1 miles; Saxmundham 7.2 miles.

The popular, vibrant seaside town of Aldeburgh is famous for its culture, traditional feel and one of the best fish and chip shops in the country! Aldeburgh and Snape Maltings are home to one of the world’s greatest music festivals and has been named as one of the top 50 places to live in Britain. Crag Path runs along the seafront dividing the beautiful pebbly beach from the unspoilt pastel-coloured seafront properties and the town. The beach is a popular place for groups and couples to enjoy the wonderful fish and chips throughout the summer months. The town is steeped in history and has become a wonderful town for shopping with a good mixture of independent and chain stores to enjoy. The town also offers a good selection of pubs and restaurants or why not buy some freshly caught fish from the huts on the seafront and cook up your own feast at home. For those wishing for a more action-packed holiday there is excellent walking, cycling, sailing and golf at Aldeburgh. Growing in popularity you will want to return to Aldeburgh again and again!
