    “We have never stayed anywhere where you dont even get a few teabags or sugar so that was a shock!”

    The general cleanliness was disappointing as I spotted stains on all furniture and furnishings as soon as we got there which made me feel uncomfortable and there were cobwebs, dead flies and woodlouse scattered about. The shower squigie broke (v.rusty) in my husbands hand on our second from last day. The rugs need non slip backing. It is a lovely house but the furniture is not practical and needs a deep clean.

    The general cleanliness was disappointing as I spotted stains on all furniture and furnishings as soon as we got there which made me feel uncomfortable and there were cobwebs, dead flies and woodlouse scattered about. The shower squigie broke (v.rusty) in my husbands hand on our second from last day. The rugs need non slip backing. It is a lovely house but the furniture is not practical and needs a deep clean. Despite sounding so negative we had a nice holiday and it's a lovely property and fairly quiet and excellent location, a fab shower but it just needs a deep clean.

    - Elizabeth, September 2024

    Thank you for your feedback, we are sorry you found some issues with cleanliness which we have addressed. In the last year we have undertaken significant refurbishment at the house and aim to offer a high standard of presentation. However, after a very busy season of welcoming lots of families, there have been some marks to the furniture and there has just not been the opportunity to get these sorted so we do apologise for this. We now have additional for the soft furnishings. We were not aware the squeegee was broken - it has now been replaced. We do have slip backing on most of the rugs but will have a look at this again. Guidance is for us to provide wine and biscuits for guests on arrival. We are pleased you still enjoyed yourself and do hope to welcome you back in the future. Property Owner

The property

The garden path leads you to the front door opening into the wonderful living space; cleverly designed with a modern kitchen flowing through to the dining room and sitting area, great at any time of the year as it opens onto the secluded patio and has a wood burner; plus a snug TV area with a second wood burner to take the chill off in the winter! All three bedrooms are bright and colourful and the ground floor bathroom with underfloor heating is accessible from the corridor as well as the bedroom. Parking for this semi-detached cottage is down a track, taking you well away from the road, with space for two cars and a path, bordered by grass and flower beds, leads to both the front door and double doors to the kitchen. Ground Floor The front door opens into the light and airy open-plan living area, with doors to the cloakroom, utility room and back of the cottage, leading to the master bedroom, en suite and stairs to the first floor. There are double doors in the living area to both the back and front, as well as doors from the master bedroom to the patio. Beautiful oak flooring runs through the majority of the ground floor, with tiles in the en suite. Open Plan Living Space Fabulous open plan room, ideal for socialising at any time of the year, with light streaming in through skylights and double doors to the front garden and patio at the back for indoor/outdoor living in the summer, and two wood burners to take the chill off in the winter. To the right is a well-equipped kitchen with central island housing two Bosch under-counter fridges and a breakfast bar with two stools. The Rangemaster double oven with separate grill and five burners is great for catering at home. Built-in units have an integrated Bosch dishwasher and there’s a free-standing microwave. The dining and relaxed sitting area sits between the kitchen, with double doors opening to the patio. An extendable table can seat six or, if you have friends visiting, extended to seat ten, with six chairs (additional in the under stairs cupboard if needs be). A comfy sofa and couple of chairs sit around the wood burner and doors to the patio – the perfect place to relax at any time of the year! To the left of the entrance is a comfortable TV area with a generous corner sofa, TV with DVD player, and wood burner set in the brick fireplace.

About the location

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!
