Guests say
Twitten Cottage is a charming and cosy property in Southwold, highly praised for its excellent location close to the beach and town. Guests appreciate the cleanliness and the welcoming touches, including a tray and a bag of goodies. While the cottage is ideal for smaller parties due to its size, it offers a comfortable stay. Some guests suggest minor improvements in maintenance and tidiness of outdoor areas.
The cottage is generally described as clean, with one review specifically noting it as 'spotless'. However, a couple of comments about the doorstep and rug suggest room for improvement.
The location is consistently praised for being close to the beach and town, making it an excellent spot for guests.
The cottage is considered cosy and comfortable, particularly for smaller groups. The mention of steep stairs and size constraints for larger parties slightly affects the comfort score.
Facilities are adequate with all cooking equipment to hand, but comments about the outdoor areas and suggestions for more durable furnishings indicate that some aspects could be enhanced.
Guests were delighted by the welcome tray and bag of goodies, showing thoughtfulness. However, as these gifts are not guaranteed for every stay, they are a pleasant surprise rather than an expectation.

Ms Doubleday
A little cottage which was fine for us two fit people (steep narrow stairs). All very pleasant and tucked away near Adnams’ and the lighthouse. Conveniently situated and very nice for a last minute three night getaway. A pleasing and charming place.

Miss Evans
Excellent location for town and beach. Cottage small and though it can sleep4, would be better suited to 2 and a child.Impossible to sit 4 round kitchen table without a lot of removal constantly. Stairs are narrow and steep, so need to be sure footed . Otherwise clean and comfortable.

Ideal location for two people, would be a tight squeeze for four.
