  • "Lovely property in a great location, short stroll to the beach and a very good pub with delicious food just round the corner."

    Property has a gorgeous garden. The layout down stairs is good but the television is in a small room with uncomfortable soft, not great if the weather is poor. The second king size room needs a new mattress the springs can be felt and I didn't sleep well during our stay.

    Thanks for the feedback. Most guests have commented on the comfort of the beds so we will check this out urgently, I’m sorry you didn’t sleep well. Property Owner

  • "When you arrive and see the front door you will panic a little and wonder what you have paid for but once opened and you go in it's like the TARDIS from Doctor Who with lovely sized rooms and garden, all tastefully decked out."

    The only minor gripe was the 2nd bedroom where you had to be careful not to bend your head (huge beds though ;0) but all in all would definitely recommend it.

  • "We had an excellent holiday- Corner Cottage is very comfortable and well equipped, and it was a pleasure to relax in the lovely garden after a day out or long walk."

    We were very lucky with the weather and the garden offers shade or sun all day long. The Dolphin and Kitchen being so close an added bonus. Looking forward to returning.

    I’m so glad you had a good time. Thanks for the lovely feedback! Property Owner

  • "Corner Cottage is in a most convenient location and we particularly appreciated the very well maintained garden with plenty of furniture and BBQ on sunny days."

    The property was quite spacious with comfy beds, good quality linen/towels and excellent kitchen. Given the weather in our 1st week was cold and wet we would have appreciated a TV in the lounge, rather than the snug, as the settee in the snug in not that comfortable. However, that would not put us off from a return visit.

  • "Pleasant house with many good features- lovely thick towels; heated towel rails; good showers; good quality bedding."

    Well equipped kitchen. quiet location. Nice to come back to. Lovely garden. The upholstery needed a shampoo as smelt very slightly unfresh. Cushion covers on the sofas needed washing. Residue of food on one One or 2 minor repairs needed- knob on a chest of drawers; soap dispenser. But enjoyed our week very much

    Thanks for your feedback - all rectified. Glad you had a good week - do come back! Property Owner

  • "Lovely cottage and perfect location (Thorpeness is lovely) - near nearby Aldeburgh, the beach and the local pub and dog walking ideal."

    Facilities on the whole very good but the "open fire" on one listing wasnt there - disappointing. The snug where the only TV (very small) is located is probably the sleeping for the 6th person? - not possible for 4 of us adults & dog to sit and watch tv - I know if you are on holiday you are out most of the time but at night (winter) when temperatures drop it would be nice to watch together some Christmas stuff/movie but impossible. The large dining/seating/Christmas tree area would have been so much more appropriate and comfortable and obvious with a more appropriate sized TV??? The heating was a little hit and miss and didn't come on when the temperature dropped. Didnt try to mess with that!

    Thanks for your feedback. The TV is small, I agree; the listing does mention the size. Along with Best of Suffolk, we will check out other listings and see where the reference to the 'open fire' comes from. The smaller bedroom upstairs has an additional truckle bed but it wasn't up when you stayed as it wasn't required. Apologies about the heating; it is on a timer but it is possible to override it. I will ensure there are clear instructions as to how to do so. I hope you found it well equipped and enjoyed your stay. Property Owner

  • "My husband and I found the property to be very well appointed."

    We took a friend with us who was staying from Toronto Canada, she was well impressed with the house and all the kitchen equipment, and the garden with all the various grasses, nothing of the like to be found in her country, Many thanks for a special memorable few days. Connie Barker.

    So glad you enjoyed it - please do come back! Property Owner

  • "A well equipt house,very comfortable."

    While we were there we had a 3 hour Power Cut over meal time. The property handbook stated there was a torch,but no details where it was located. We never did find it? We did find 3 and a half candles,but nothing to put them in. Fortunately we did have a gas hob, but very tricky to use it. This situation needsto be improved. Overall we we enjoyed our stay at Corner Cottage very much, but the poor weather meant we were not able tosit in the lovely garden, Derek Miles

    We are sorry you had a power cut. There should have been a torch and batteries in the dresser drawer in the sitting room. We will make sure the location is indicated in the welcome folder, and also buy a couple more, including putting one upstairs. We removed candles when we did our last fire risk assessment. Apart from the weather, we are glad you enjoyed your stay. Property Owner

    It contained everything we needed and was a very attractive, spacious and comfortable place to stay. We found it very useful having the separate TV room. The back garden with paved area, plenty of seating, and attractive planting, was stunning.

    I'm glad you enjoyed your visit and the garden - it's lovely at this time of year. Please come back! Property Owner

  • "Lovely comfortable cottage, well equipped and spacious."

    Great quiet location, but close to beach - great for walking. Would thoroughly recommend. Only a minor issue - having asked for 1*double /2*twins, we turned up to 2doubles - but found sheets / duvets to do it ourselves!

    We do apologise for any mix-up with the beds. Our Housekeeper is usually meticulous about checking these things; apologies if your request slipped through the system. I am glad you enjoyed the location and lovely walks, please come again! Property Owner

  • "It wasn’t quite the week we had planned as we all had covid so our movements were v restricted and we were in the house far more than we expected."

    Our only negative was the Television- usually this wouldn’t have featured as we don’t go away to watch TV! On this occasion we would have welcomed a TV that was larger. The variety of games was brilliant. We stay in Suffolk twice a year and truly love Aldeburgh & Thorpeness. Unfortunately no visits to Southwold or The Lighthouse this time.

    Sorry to hear about your Covid! Agreed, it's not a big TV as we also think there is far too much else to do on holiday in Suffolk but glad you enjoyed the games. Please come again! Property Owner
