Guests say

Dressmaker's Cottage is a warm, cosy, and quirky property that offers a delightful stay for families and pets. With ample parking, secure outdoor spaces, and proximity to beaches and local amenities, guests have enjoyed its homely touches, spacious communal areas, and picturesque garden views. The cottage's location near Southwold and Covehithe beach is appreciated, though some minor niggles about cleanliness and facilities have been noted.

The cottage received some criticism for dustiness, suggesting room for improvement in cleanliness. However, this was a minor point among many positive comments, indicating that the property is generally well-kept.

The location is highly praised for its proximity to local shops, beaches, and attractions like Southwold. The mention of traffic noise from the A12 is a slight drawback, but it seems to be a minor issue for most guests.

Guests find the cottage cosy and comfortable, with ample space for large groups and secure areas for children and pets to play. The beds are described as comfy, and the communal areas are well-received for family activities.

The facilities are generally well-regarded, with a six-ring burner for cooking and plenty of entertainment options like DVDs and games. Some guests suggested the need for additional bathroom facilities and kitchenware, but overall the amenities meet the needs of most visitors.

While the reviews reflect a positive experience, there is no mention of gifts or special thoughtful touches provided by the hosts. Therefore, it is not possible to assess this category based on the available information.

  • Mrs Churchill

    This is a lovely cottage. Wonderful sunsets, comfy beds, great shower, dog safe garden and a lovely lovely holiday. The accommodation was generous in size and amenities - games to play, comfy seats, comfy clean beds and not far from Southwold. We loved it. Felt relaxed and enjoyed both the property and local amenities and attractions. Very well situated. Thank you!

  • Mrs Brown

    The cottage is tastefully decorated and is very homely. The rear of the garden is secure for children to play and the paddocks behind the garden offer a very pleasant view of countryside together with the two goats.
