  • "Lovely cottage in excellent location for town and beach."

    Short 5 mins walk through the church at the top of the road to centre of southwold highstreet. Easy free parking right outside cottage. Tastefully decorated throughout and central heating very good and warm for whole stay. Lovely and clean. Downsides would be there are no wardrobes for hanging clothes, just 6 hangers and a small free standing rack in main bedroom and only hooks on the wall with coat hangers in other 2 bedrooms. The shower cubicle in the bathroom is very small for manouvering round inside. Fortunately, we aren't very big so was ok, but it might be an issue for a bigger person! Lovely, bright and light, well equiped kitchen, plenty of everything you need but the fridge which is so tiny and the smallest we've seen outside of a caravan! There is also a wine fridge though in the dining area which we used as back up to the small frigde!. The TV is very small but we weren't away to watch TV all the time so it was fine for a few days. The welcome pack of wine, biscuits, crisps and milk is a lovely gesture and most welcome. Thank you. Would recommend the coastal walk to Walberswick. Southwold is a lovely town and a great base.

  • "Very happy stay in Southwold."

    Easy walk to the seafront, the pier and the town centre. Cottage is lovely, really well equipped with useful essentials like tea, coffee, salt, pepper, dishwasher tablets etc. as well as books and games. Comfy and homely. Special big thank you to Ben at Sykes who went the extra mile to help us get booked, after we left it much later than we should have. Much appreciated thank you.

  • "Close to shops and beach."

    Small (circa 1909) terraced cottage with partial ground floor refurbishment. Disturbed at night by noisy neighbours Defective and temperamental front door lock, which posed a security risk. House/Garden boundaries offered no privacy. Over priced and disappointing.

    Thank you for your feedback. I am sorry that you felt the property to be disappointing. Whilst there is very little we can do about neighbours noise, we understand how this can impact your holiday and are very sorry about this, the neighbours have since moved away. The front door lock is not defective as we have checked this and would not risk the security of our guests or the house. Naturally being in a terraced house, the gardens are unable to be completely secluded and private but the garden is seperated by hedges and shrubs. I am sorry you did not enjoy your time at Sea Mouse Cottage but do hope you would come back in the future to try again. Property Owner

  • "Really pleased with the property and can’t fault in any way."

    Has clearly been recently decorated to a high standard. It was a lovely touch to arrive and find the welcoming wine and snacks.
