  • Bella

    Fabulous location - close to lots of beaches and we loved that you could walk out of the back garden up on to the heath. In the house everything was really clean; the beds were comfortable, loads of crockery and glasses. Having the log burner was lovely too for when it got a bit cooler in the evening. Helpful info in the house folder of good pubs, restaurants, etc.

  • Simon

    Once we got the heating sorted it was also comfortable warm at the right times. The beds are very comfortable and the kitchen and shower facilities first class. The location is great for dog walking and access to beautiful beaches and coastal towns, ALDBURGH and SOUTHWOLD.

  • Lois

    The house was very clean and tidy, the property had everything we needed it felt like a home from home. Our little dog Ted absolutely loved the garden and made himself right at home! Thank you so much for a fabulous stay, we would love to visit again some time
