“The property had not been cleaned when we arrived.”

Windows, floor and walls were covered in webs, dust and fluff. This was a real shame as it is a nice small but comfortable cottage in a lovely location. The TV reception is next to useless but could be connected to WiFi, I used my firestick. I will be interested to find out why the cottage was so dirty when we arrived.

“Excellent quiet area to stay overlooking salt marshes and beach huts in the distance.”

15 min walk into Southwold. Quaint annexe which was big enough for 2, plenty of storage space and well equipped. Enclosed patio and parking a bonus. Sloping ceiling in the bedroom is something to be aware of.

“Cosy holiday accommodation for two just 10 minutes walk to Southwold.”

Minor issues were poor tv reception and confusion over recycling bins.

“Lovely and comfortable.”

The furnishings, bedding etc are all good quality and the bed is very comfy. I have to say I have never stayed anywhere so warm. The garden is very secure for the dog. Because we had such bad weather we had to stay in quite a bit so watched TV. The TV would benefit from being connected to the Internet as the signal is poor and the picture breaks up. Guests could then watch iplayer ,etc or log into their TV services from home.

“Lovely accommodation - a little snug, but more than big enough for the two of us and the dog.”

A short walk in to the town centre and beach. Would definitely recommend for a short break.

“Very enjoyable last minute break for us & our small dog.”

Accomodation was very good and clean and well equipped with good quality linen & utensils. Location was ideal for walking into Southwold & we even walked to Walberswick. The only negative aspect of our stay was was when the main house was occupied you could hear their washing machine spinning very loud from behind the adjoining door which was going for some hours on one day & woke us up very early one morning. The annex is on an unmade road and the off road parking mentioned in the details we would not really consider to be off road. It is a strip of grass directly in front of the gate. Shame as there is a garage with a parking space attached to the annex. The road is mainly quiet, however there was building work opposite which meant the road was very narrow when the builder's van was there & our car was on the grass outside. Items that would be of benefit is a washing up bowl, a mat inside the front door to stop walking in mud when it's wet, a colander for straining pasta etc a cheese grater and a broom or hoover. Despite these issues we had a great break.

“Warm, cosy, clean modern accommodation.”

Ideal for the two of us and great to be able to park the car directly outside the property. Perfect location for access to Southwold, the marshes and Walberswick.

“I enjoyed my stay with my dog Bella - the location was ideal for lots of good local walks in and around Southwold and Walberswick.”

The annex was clean on arrival but did notice the bathroom fan very very dusty and the bedroom carpet had a lot of blonde hair on it - both myself and Bella have black hair so not ours. It would have been good if there could have been a broom and mop in the property as well as a hoover - especially as there is plenty of room for them in the understair cupboard or hot water cylinder cupboard. Also a cheese grater would have been good to have. All in all I had a very comfortable stay - perfect size for just the Bella and I.

“We had a great stay in the cottage, myself my husband and our small dog, Ted.”

Very comfortable and there was everything you needed, they even arranged excellent weather (lol) We thoughtfully recommended. Close to all shops, pubs and a gorgeous beach. If you choose this cottage you will not be disappointed.

- Tina, September 2025

Thank you so much for your feedback. We are so glad that you had an excellent stay. Hope to see you again Property Owner

The property

The Annex next to St Johns is a lovely annex near a beach in Reydon, Suffolk. This dog-friendly property boasts an open-plan living space, enclosed patio, and off-road parking, making it well-suited to couples and solo-travellers on a seaside getaway in Suffolk. Stroll from the sea to your new abode and wash off the stubborn sand still stuck to your skin in a ground-floor bathroom. Whip up a scrumptious supper in the well-equipped kitchen space to enjoy at the dining table for three. Enjoy a drink in the enclosed patio while your pup plays safely beside you. When the evening chill begins to nip, settle into the sofa with a film on the TV, before falling into a double bed waiting to catch you. The annex, situated in Reydon, offers an unbeatable location for those looking to enjoy everything Southwold has to offer. From the Annex, it’s just short walk to Southwold’s charming High Street, beautiful beach, and iconic pier. You truly couldn’t rent a home much closer to Southwold itself. Soak up your local surroundings with a seaside stroll along Southwold Pier, visit the Southwold Railway Trust, then hop in the sea at Southwold Beach. Venture further afield to Great Yarmouth for some fun at Great Yarmouth Pleasure Beach, dive deep to meet the creatures of the ocean at SEA LIFE Great Yarmouth and don your finest clothes for a day out at Great Yarmouth Racecourse. Take that short drive to Ipswich to explore the Ipswich Transport Museum and Christchurch Mansion, before catching an evening show at Ipswich Regent Theatre. All these adventures and more wait to be enjoyed with a stay at The Annex next to St Johns.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £150.
