“It is an absolutely glorious place to stay and we all loved it!”

High ceilings, lovely views, the property is immaculate, yet super comfortable and makes you feel at home. Spacious; none of the rooms make you shimmy between dresser and bed etc! Beds are nice and big, the living area is huge and the table is a great size - it took a jigsaw puzzle at one end and 5 people eating around the table with no issues. The onsite facilities are great - the pool was lovely as was the games room. We put a reserve in for the swimming pool and got a better time; the ...

High ceilings, lovely views, the property is immaculate, yet super comfortable and makes you feel at home. Spacious; none of the rooms make you shimmy between dresser and bed etc! Beds are nice and big, the living area is huge and the table is a great size - it took a jigsaw puzzle at one end and 5 people eating around the table with no issues. The onsite facilities are great - the pool was lovely as was the games room. We put a reserve in for the swimming pool and got a better time; the original times available were at 8pm or 9pm at night. I read the review from Dec23, but everything is rectified from that visit - bowls aplenty. My only comment would be when communicating with holiday makers beforehand, it might be worth adding instructions on turning left and going all the way around the back of the building to park, as it did take us a while to find the spot specific to the apartment.

“Listing is not clear about exact parking location and sign for 43 was not there when we arrived which caused delay and frustration.”

Map of complex has apparently disappeared from the flat but has not been replaced, so finding the swimming pool on a winter's evening was challenging! Flat (toilet) not properly cleaned on arrival. Heating difficult to control on low, so we had to turn it off completely to stop the flat becoming too hot. Some of the utensils are heavily damaged and should not still be in the drawer. Oven/grill instructions missing and it is quite an unusual appliance so we gave up after 2-3 days of trying to work it out ourselves. Based on this, the property rating of 5 stars is a real stretch although it has potential to be worthy if greater attention was given to details (which make all the difference).

“LoveLy property in great location.”

We would definitely come back. Great to have swimming pool and games room on site and plenty of space for kids and dog to get outside. Welcoming and helpful neighbours. Property would benefit from more crockery as there was only 1 bowl each so we had to wash up a lot and also a stale Smokey smell when we arrived which was unpleasant. The ikea mattress in the main bedroom had been flipped onto the side you can’t sleep on and was too soft but when we realised this it was easily sorted. Would be nice to have some extra towels and bin bags too for a week long stay. Also another set of keys would be good as there was only one set of front door keys. These are minor points which are easily rectified as overall it’s a lovely place to stay and I would recommend. We hope to return.

“We thoroughly enjoyed our four days at Feathers, it was comfortable, spacious and well equipped.”

The Blythview site was quiet and well maintained and we were well placed for visiting Southwold, RSPB Minsmere and many other places. Our daughter, son in law and their 3 month baby joined us for one day and night and our grandson had his first experience of a swim in the leisure pool. Overall a very nice break.

- Martin, September 2023

So glad you enjoyed your stay and thanks for the great review....Please do come and visit again! Property Owner

“We had an enjoyable stay in a very nice well appointed and well equipped property and would visit again.”

Visitors with dogs should be aware that there is no enclosed garden space at this property and with strict rules regarding keeping dogs on leads at all times when outside, it is slightly annoying that whenever your dog needs to go outside, you need to accompany him/her rather than simply being able to let it out by itself.

Many thanks for your review and feedback. We are really glad you enjoyed your stay and do hope you will visit us again. Property Owner

“The property is in a great location for many gorgeous beaches, well known landmarks and some fabulous concert venues.”

The actual property is five stars - a good layout, well equipped with everything you need for a good holiday. The surroundings and countryside vista are stunning. The pool and gym are a nice added extra. We also found the neighbours very friendly and informative of local history, farm shops and places to eat. I would highly recommend The Feathers and we would love to visit again.

“We had a lovely holiday and enjoyed our time at the Feathers.”

It was welcoming, comfortable and well equipped. Thank you our welcome pack it was gratefully received. The only slight problem we had was washing in the tiny en-suite wash basin The beds were very comfortable and we enjoyed using the pool and games room. We could happily return. Many thanks.

“We booked four nights at The Feathers and were very happy.”

It is nicer than the pictures. The apartment is spacious , plenty of storage, comfortable, warm, plenty of hot water and nice showers, just watch your delicate bits on the ensuite radiator as you get out of the shower. It had everything we needed. The dining table is nice and long and perfect for evening supper after a long day exploring. We were four adults and one child, but it is big enough for 6 adults. It is in a good location, but you definitely need a car. You can walk to the local pub, The White Hart, but it is a bit of an adventure across the footpaths and took us about 40 minutes and it was light. We also left our car in The White Hart carpark and walked to Southwold, it is a good walk. There is a bus that you can get back from Southwold to Blythburgh and it doesn't take long. Check the bus times before you go, I think the bus number was 99A. The Feathers is very good value for what you are getting and is definitely one of the best apartments I have stayed in. I would highly recommend and would stay there again.
