The Old Post Box

We loved our stay and had everything we needed in the house.

Great location for exploring the local area and lots to do with young kids.

We had a lovely stay at this cottage in Halesworth.

The location is excellent, making it really easy to explore lots of nearby towns and attractions, which was a huge plus for us. We visited Southwold a few times, Aldeburgh, Oasis Camel Park (great fun!) and the fish and chips in Halesworth are recommended, as is the Italian food in The Angel. The cottage itself is very old and full of character, think beams, quirks, and a real sense of history. If you’re after something sleek and modern with straight lines, this probably isn’t the place for you. But if you love a cosy, traditional feel with plenty of charm, it’s absolutely perfect. The garden was lovely, an English country garden with seating, ideal for relaxing, and great that it’s dog-friendly too. Inside, the cottage was well-equipped with plenty of utensils for cooking, and we appreciated all the thoughtful touches. It felt really cosy throughout our stay, especially with the log burner, and there were books and games which made for some lovely evenings in. The record player was a particularly fun addition and a big hit with us, so much so one of my children has now bought his own record player! Another bonus was Holton Pit being right by the house, an excellent spot for dog walks. Overall, a charming, cosy cottage in a fantastic location; perfect for anyone who appreciates character and a homely feel. We had a few little (one off) issues when we arrived and the owner was wonderful in sorting them and Sykes called the next day to check all was ok, it’s reassuring to know you have that back up from the word go. I recommended the cottage an Sykes.

Lovely weekend at The Old Post Box.

Such a lovely cozy cottage. We loved it. Great location and the cottage had all we need. Thank you so much.

This place has been so much fun and I think the dog enjoyed it most.

I cant wait to come back and do more adventures - Cleo I really enjoyed the cottage. I really want to come back and stay longer and see more beaches and RSPB places in Suffolk - Max

We've had a great week this week.

We have been to the beach near Gun Hill kiosk a few times and it was amazing! We have also been crabbing several times which was really fun - as usual. We went to a few new places this trip - Aldeburgh (it was absolutely stunning, i definitely recommend the fish and chips!) and Norwich (we went shopping and to the cathedral which was gorgeous) The cottage is so cozy and comfortable and has served us well over the past week. We also visited the Southwold pier where we had the best hot chocolate ever at the Boardwalk restaurant, visited the arcade (always fun) and visited the under the pier show - this was so fun and unique and hilarious for the entire family to do. We've overall had another brilliant time at The Old Post Box and will certainly be returning soon. Thanks a lot.

Another enjoyable few days relaxing in this cozy cottage.

We visited our favourite places and always find something or somewhere new to explore from this ideal location. We will be back!
