    “Excellent location with beach, nature reserves, bridleways & footpaths easily accessible.”

    Quiet, private & not overlooked despite being attached to main house, tucked behind other buildings. Mattress & pillows very comfy, single room useful as dressing room. Kitchen needed more equipment if cooking in : e.g. no pint glasses for local ale (!) no casserole, roasting tin, a third saucepan… but plenty of excellent local pubs. No air tight lidded containers. Gift of juice & biscuits nice touch but would have preferred kitchen roll & foil. Layout of living room furniture and bright rug ...

Kitchen needed more equipment if cooking in : e.g. no pint glasses for local ale (!) no casserole, roasting tin, a third saucepan… but plenty of excellent local pubs. No air tight lidded containers. Gift of juice & biscuits nice touch but would have preferred kitchen roll & foil. Layout of living room furniture and bright rug has changed since photo. Nice Orla Kiely blinds etc. Settee quite difficult to sit comfortably on & we used pillows as cushions. Everywhere very clean, uncluttered therefore quick & easy to tidy up at end of stay. Perfect location for everything we planned to see and do. Would recommend for couples.

About the location

WESTLETON

Saxmundham 6 miles; Southwold 9 miles; Aldeburgh 15 miles.

Westleton is an idyllic village near the Suffolk coast, nestled between Southwold and Aldeburg and offers all the attributes you could hope for in a Suffolk village, with a village green complete with pond and ducks. The village is easily accessible from the local train station at Darsham approximately two miles away. The village has a store, a bookshop where you can also enjoy a tea or coffee whilst browsing, an old fashioned garage, as well as two pubs, The White Horse Inn and The Westleton Crown, one of Suffolk’s best traditional inns where the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, William and Kate held their first wedding anniversary. Every August, Westleton hosts the infamous Barrel Rolling Fair where contestants have to roll barrels down the Village Green using a pole, and the men have to roll the barrel back up the hill too. Barrels are supplied and all are welcome to join in! The local Emmerdale Farm Shop and Butchery as well as a tea shop is approximately a mile away. The area is a haven for nature lovers with Westleton Heath National Nature Reserve, Dunwich Forest, Dunwich Beach with its famous fish and chip shop located on the beach, and the RSPB Minsmere, all close by. The town of Saxmundham, 6 miles away, is located on the River Fromus, in the heart of Suffolk’s Heritage Coast and is well serviced with independent shops, supermarkets and a train station, as well as art galleries, a weekly market and a farmers’ market.
