What our customers say about their holidays

  Liked the property overall, the bed was very comfortable & loved the open fire, but there were issues with facilities.

  The heating was not on on arrival, three radiators switched off & we had to figure out how it worked to heat the house up. The bathroom was always freezing with the heated towel rail working every now and again. We did eventually learn how to turn it on but were always out before it heated up. Cooking facilities were poor. The cooker hood needs a good clean and bulbs replacing. The roasting tin and baking sheet were rusty and unusable, there are only two saucepans with lids and three small milk pans - why is a proper set not provided? Couldn't turn the oven on & had to phone up for instructions as there were none. Despite having three welcome folders there were no instructions for any appliances. The washing machine is not level, rocks on two feet & had to be wedged up with a book to stop it roaming around the kitchen. Had to buy an airer to hang clothes to dry. Had to buy a new plug for the kitchen sink and had to improvise a plug for the bathroom sink. Had to buy a set of allen keys to tighten up the table legs to stop it wobbling around (& potentially collapsing). The weather was poor with conditions outside very muddy. No mop was provided so, unfortunately, we couldn't clean the floors properly before we left. Towels provided are tiny & only just fitted round our waists. If we'd known would have brought our own. We enjoyed our stay overall, we don't usually let poor facilities dampen our enjoyment, but are very disappointed to have again paid a high price for a UK holiday property that fell short. The location is lovely but is definitely not worth the money we paid.

  Having spent a lot of time in Southwold, Aldeburgh and other coastal Suffolk towns it was a first visit to Walberswick and what a delight.

  Situated between Southwold and Dunwich it was the perfect location to dip in and out of the busier areas – all within easy walking distance. Halsey gives one the opportunity to escape from the crowds – situated down a quiet country lane you come across the house set completely within its own grounds with lots of parking. Tastefully kitted out with all a large family could require, sleeping eight comfortably with two en-suites, the house exudes a mixture of period and coastal charm. The master bedroom has a massive balcony overlooking the marshes down to the sea – the perfect spot for an early coffee or sundowner. The gardens are extensive with the most impressive greenhouse I have ever seen! With plenty of games, a tv and wifi there is lots to do if you just want to stay in and enjoy the house and garden. Halsey is a rare treat, with its spacious accommodation, peaceful location and stunning sea views.

  Celebration weekend for my Husbands 50th birthday. The Leveretts is a gorgeous property, Lovely décor and furnishings, great social spaces, fantastic location, fantastic views over the coast. As a group of friends, we had plenty of room to relax and enjoy each others company. Fully stocked kitchen and generous size oven which coped with Christmas dinner for all of us. Great that we could all sit round the dinning table together without a squash. Both lounges have woodburning stoves, kept us lovely and warm. All bedrooms are good size, nice that they all open up onto the balcony, lovely to have coffee overlooking the sea views. Beds reported to be comfortable, nice linen and towels provided. Lovely outside space, love the grasses. Overall lovely property in a quaint village, would visit again.

  We were a group of 6 adults.

  The bedrooms were beautifully fitted out, light and airy rooms with views over the fields to the sea. All bedrooms had tasteful en- suite bathrooms. Downstairs , the kitchen was fully kitted with everything one would need to cook and eat at home, but equally there are 2 pubs in the Village which serve excellent food and had a lovely atmosphere. We tried them both. Outside there is a sheltered patio , with table and 8 chairs, which is a suntrap to enjoy, with views of the large and pretty garden. Thank you to the owners for sharing their lovely home. Would highly recommend.

  This was our third stay booked through Suffolk Secrets. The location of the house was perfect for our needs; however, we were slightly disappointed that there was no Christmas tree for our stay. In our previous stays around the UK, a tree has always been provided, so we had to rush to find one ourselves. Additionally, the kitchen could use more cleaning supplies. Despite these minor issues, we had a fantastic stay in a great location, close to the sea and even closer to the pub.
