The Nutshell is a characterful semi-detached holiday home tucked away in the heart of Aldeburgh, one of Suffolk’s most loved seaside towns.
Ideal for families and groups, this pet-friendly bolt hole offers a relaxed base just moments from the coast, blending traditional charm with all the essentials for an easy, comfortable stay.
Inside, the house has a warm, lived-in feel that suits slow mornings and unhurried evenings.
The kitchen is well set up for self-catering, whether you’re preparing a hearty breakfast before a beach walk or a simple supper using fresh local produce.
Meals are best enjoyed in the dining room, a welcoming space for lingering conversations and planning the next day’s adventures.
When it’s time to wind down, the sitting room invites you to put your feet up beside the woodburning stove, a lovely spot to relax after a day out exploring the coast.
Upstairs and down, the bedrooms are thoughtfully arranged to suit different party make-ups.
The ground-floor king-size bedroom benefits from its own en-suite shower room, offering extra privacy and convenience, while the double room on the first floor is ideal for children or friends.
Also on the first floor there is a study area with a desk.
On the second floor there is a super-king-size bed.
A family bathroom completes the layout, making the house practical as well as comfortable.
Outside, the enclosed patio provides a quiet place to enjoy a morning coffee or an evening glass of wine, with the added bonus of being secure for four-legged guests.
Step beyond the front door and you’ll find Aldeburgh’s independent shops, galleries and well-regarded eateries all within walking distance, along with the famous shingle beach and scenic coastal paths.
Both the village pub and the fish and chip shop are just a short stroll from the property.
The surrounding area is a joy to explore.
Thorpeness is easily reached for waterside walks around the Meare, while Saxmundham offers a traditional market-town feel and good rail links for car-free days out.
Nature lovers will enjoy the nearby RSPB reserves, where birdwatching is particularly rewarding throughout the year.
The Nutshell is a relaxed coastal retreat, perfectly placed for enjoying the simple pleasures of Suffolk’s shoreline.
