  • "The place was cozy, clean and warm with a welcome tray of tea, coffee, hot chocolate and biscuits!"

    There was a trainer toilet seat and beach toys for children. There was a stool for the shower if needed and plenty of toilet rolls. Towels were lovely and soft. Tea towels were provided. There was also cleaning equipment! The bed was comfortable with pretty bedding. Hot water bottles were also available as well as an electric fire in case you got chilly. Lots of DVDs to suit everyone. We had a lovely, peaceful time and would definitely go again.

  • "Spotlessly clean and well appointed cottage."

    So much care has gone into making this a most enjoyable place to stay. So many “ extras”. The welcome tray even had decaf coffee, most unusual but very welcome. Fixtures and furnishings are many , all in good order and maintain a warm welcoming ambiance of a seaside cottage. Generally the cottage is well situated in a private well maintained complex with unobstructed sea views. All in all a most pleasant stay, highly recommend it and needless to say, we shall be back!

    ....definitely a five stars score....it had everything we needed and more. We used it as a base for visiting various nature reserves, and to come back to the cottage after a long days walking was lovely. Sitting in the porch/conservatory , with the early morning cuppa, watching birds, the sea and ships was an ideal way to start the day. An excellent place to stay.

    Had everything we wanted and was very well located near the Suffolk Coastal Path, with a clear view of the sunrise. Our first time in the area which we found fascinating. The countryside and coast was fascinating; we did a lot of walking and running. So many nice resorts nearby and many upmarket villages and towns e.g. Dunwich. We got to see the Broads as well and many historical places including Framlingham Castle, Sutton Ho and even Great Yarmouth with the faded grandeur of its Golden Mile.
