Lovely property in the centre of Southwold, close to cafes and shops and only a short walk to the beach. Spacious, clean, comfortable and well equipped. Easy to use central heating system, kept us cosy on chilly October days.

The apartment is lovely. What would probably prevent us booking it again is the noise from the above apartment which we understand has hard flooring unlike Postmasters that is carpeted. It's a real shame but the noise was an issue for us The sash windows are lovely but only single glazed (we understand this might be due to age of the apartment or cost of replacing them for double glazed units) which is why we noticed the traffic noise. The welcome pack was a lovely treat especially the yummy H&J biscuits. So much so we had to buy some. Great to have the parking space because we only book properties with parking. Such a shame about the noise from above apartment otherwise we'd definitely book it again and also recommend it.
