    “Met with a huge cobweb across the door knob which was the least of our problem, arrived at 17.”

    30pm and decided to try the much rated chip shop which we brought back to the cottage to eat we sat at the dining table and I went to the utensil draw for some cutlery only to find there was 1 fork available, I looked further and found 2 knives, 2 forks and 2 mugs in the dishwasher which on inspection hadn't been cleaned, the cups had coffee and tea stains/residue and the cutlery still had food on them which was disgusting and not what you expected to find when you pay good money. the sofa and ...

    30pm and decided to try the much rated chip shop which we brought back to the cottage to eat we sat at the dining table and I went to the utensil draw for some cutlery only to find there was 1 fork available, I looked further and found 2 knives, 2 forks and 2 mugs in the dishwasher which on inspection hadn't been cleaned, the cups had coffee and tea stains/residue and the cutlery still had food on them which was disgusting and not what you expected to find when you pay good money. the sofa and bed were so uncomfortable, the bed was far too hard and left us with aching backs so much so we were looking for another place to stay by Tuesday morning. we went on to Sykes website where it gives you the opportunity to contact them but the button that you need to report on a existing rental was disabled, I emailed them about this but as yet still have no response as to why you can discuss a new booking, a old booking but not a current booking whilst you have current issues, we left the cottage on Thursday morning and drove home, we couldn't stand another 4/5 days with bad backs I don't wish for the feedback to be published nationally because I don't like businesses to fail but the owners of this property need to put some TLC into the property if renting out to hard working people who are looking for a relaxing break, its not what we had. The feedback book left in the living room doesn't have many up to date reviews but some say they had a great sleep on a very comfortable bed and I don't understand that because it was like sleeping on the floor, pillows were great

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!

Note: This property is not suitable for children, however babies are permitted.
Note: Due to being one of the oldest properties in Aldeburgh, is a quirky rustic cottage with low ceilings and steep stairs so not suitable for children or those with limited mobility.
