  • "Lovely cottage with everything we needed!"

    Beds and bedrooms very comfortable as well as the lounge room. Equipment in the shed for crabbing very helpful. Summer room lovely for children, and a very nice welcome with soft toys in the bedroom. Lego under the stairs was also fab! A new potato peeler would be welcome… Thank you very much for a fantastic week!

  • "We enjoyed much of the stay and found the cottage generally spacious and comfortable, however there were a few issues worth mentioning."

    The main kitchen table and chairs are not very well matched; we were 6 normal sized adults and all found it hard to sit and eat with sufficient legroom under the edge of the table. Either the chairs need to be lower or the table higher! One of the bath towels had several bleach stains on it - that's definitely not the standard we expect from Sykes. The kitchen area had two spotlights blown when we arrived (we informed Sykes and the owner); we were surprised to find only one spare bulb in the utility cupboard. Given the flow of traffic outside the front gate we wondered whether it might be safer to trim back the immediate shrubbery - to allow clearer visibility? Hope you find these points constructive...and we loved the village, its surrounds and the walking opportunities.

  • "Had a lovely time, in fact so good that we've booked again for 2024."

    Owner was very prompt in responding to an issue with the hot water - thank you.

  • "It was very clean and well-kept with fresh and pleasant decor."

    Particularly liked the bath with a view! One of the two paving stones by the front gate tips underfoot, which could do with fixing for safety given that the road is right in front. Didn't notice the arrival of the oil refill people as warned by email, but the timing of the gardener's visit on the first morning of the stay was unexpected and a little obtrusive, although he tried to be as discreet as possible.

    Lots of sea swimming, crabbing, trips to Southwold and relaxing at the house. Look forward to returning soon :)

  • "The cottage felt like a home away from home."

    Very peaceful and relaxing. We have been spoilt with the sunshine so we made the most of the outdoor space. Thank you.
