"This is our second holiday in this lovely, comfortable & nicely furnished cottage. We love coming to Aldeburgh and we love this cottage too. We missed walks around the marshes because of the works on the flood defences but compensated with walks north of the town. Dinner at the Regatta was lovely as ever. Our discovery this year was Minsmere. Can’t believe we haven’t been before. Stunning countryside and fascinating bird watching, even for amateurs like us. We will definitely be back and would (and do) recommend this cottage to anyone. Thank you"

"Thank you for our super stay in a very sweet cottage - two girls together, we were volunteering at an Art Exhibition, but managed to find some 'us' time too - very well provisioned and we loved having a fire in the chilly evenings - lovely cottage - great location and perfect for a getaway, we have loved our weekend escape."

"We had a lovely stay in the cute little cottage. Perfect escape all cosy with everything we needed, thank you we'll be back!!"

"Had a wonderful time, cottage perfect, walks, fish and chips, didn't stray far, Southwold, Woodbridge and Orford, struggled to get past 10pm as too cosy to stay awake."

"Thanks for the use of your lovely, tasteful cottage. Aldeburgh never fails to delight after 30 years. Wine and biscuits much appreciated. Fish & Chips as good as ever. Hope to return next year"

"We’ve stayed in Aldeburgh several times now, and now love staying in the beautiful cottages here. Aldeburgh cottage is no exception. The welcoming wine and biscuits was a great start of another wonderful break, and the fire added that final touch, especially at this time of year. Thank you, we will be back"

A beautifully restored seaside self catering Aldeburgh holiday cottage just moments from the beach, and successfully combines contemporary luxury with period features. Light and airy throughout, it is clutter and chintz free, apart from the friendly painted wooden seagull you'll find above the fire place.

On the ground floor there's a living room with a cosy open fire, a kitchen/dining room with original Suffolk brick floor, and the family bathroom. Upstairs there's a double bedroom with an en suite shower room and a twin bedroom. Outside is an enclosed patio garden. Aldeburgh's popular beach, shops and restaurants are all close by.
