Ferry Knoll is in an ideal location with cafe and pubs just a short walk a great option for dining out. A lovely way to explore nearby Southwold is by approaching the town on the foot ferry which runs across the creek. A novel approach and the children (and adults) will love it!

The distinctive lighthouse is a well known landmark and has been guiding vessels into the historical harbour since the late 1800’s.

Mr Donnelly
This three bedroom cottage sits in a great position. Close to the beach and 50 yards to the nearest pub. Parking outside the cottage was ideal. Although we stayed in November when it was quiet and parking anywhere wasn’t a problem, it will different in high season. Small courtyard garden is secure for dogs. Inside the cottage laid out well with a good size kitchen diner for eating. Kitchen well stocked with everything you need. Downstairs toilet included. Two comfortable reception rooms and all bedrooms were a good size. Bed comfortable and views to southwould and the sea. Large family bathroom and good size shower cubicle. All in all a great cottage to spend time in and enjoy what walberswick has to offer , we loved our stay there and will return

A lovely comfy cottage in a great location. Walberswick is a beautiful village and we had a great time. We can highly recommend the Bell Inn and there are lots of great walks from the doorstep.
