"This is a lovely cottage in a great location."
The property was very well equipped and really comfortable. It was easy to keep the cottage cool during the heatwave. The cottage is a couple of minutes walk to the main shopping street and the lovely local bakery. Aldeburgh is well placed as a base for visiting lots of other tourists attractions. We never had a problem parking close to the cottage on our return from day trips. Thank you for the lovely wine and biscuits. Much appreciated. We would not hesitate in recommending this cottage to others.

"We really enjoyed our stay at Coastguard Cottages."
A lot of thought has gone into thinking of everything to make a stay as comfortable as possible. Having the outside decking area was a bonus. The location is fantastic and we loved the view from the top bedroom window. The cottage is over four floors so had lots of stairs, but this wasn't a problem for us. We would highly recommend.

"Cottage is fairly spacious and comfortable, well equipped kitchen and nice decking out back to relax in the sun."
Although it wasn’t a deal breaker for us, it could have been made clearer in the description that there was quite a lot of stairs to negotiate, especially down to the lower level kitchen. Also think ‘mesmerising view’ of the sea is a bit misleading as you can only really see it from the attic bedroom and partially from the back bunkbed bedroom. However, it was a very quick stroll down to the Main Street and the seafront.

"What a fantastic cottage!"
Great, quiet location but so close to the High Street and Beach. Bakers is a good 1 minute walk away. The cottage is over 4 floors so good for your step count but gives you plenty of space. The Kitchen has everything you need and access to the decked area. Parking was very easy and straight outside the property. Certainly would recommend!

"We have nothing to add which is different to other guest reviews - it is centrally located, we liked it was set back from the High Street, it is well equipped, like a home from home and it was a lovely cottage."
We loved the velum window so we could hear the ocean (and seagulls) and we certainly felt that we deserved some great food from the very good dining options, after going up and down the stairs!
Dear Jane, thank you for taking the time to write such a lovely review. Kind Regards, Ian and Fiona

"This is literally home from home!"
It had absolutely everything that we needed. And on top of this, this was an extremely cosy pad to spend a few days in. The extra bonus was the position of this property. We enjoyed walking down to the shops without having needed to take the car. Would love to return. Thank you for the wine and biscuits, which we appreciated.
Dear Naomi, thank you very much for your lovely review. We do hope you will return at some point. Regards Ian and Fiona

"Really lovely cottage, well laid out."
Tasteful and well appointed with top quality equipment and comfy beds. Everything you could possibly need. Friendly and helpful owner, and also housekeeper. Good communication.
Great central location on a quiet street just off the High Street. No problem parking. Nice to look over the rooftops and see the sea from the top floor. We've just come back from a super fortnight and didn't want to leave. Usually feel a little homesick by the end, but not here!
Dear Howard, thank you for your review. We are very pleased you had a great stay. Thank you for your kind words. Ian & Fiona

"The cottage is in an ideal location just round the corner from the High Street and beach, but is tucked away on a quiet road."
We loved being able to walk everywhere and to be so close to the sea. The sound of the waves and the sea views from our bedroom were so relaxing. The cottage was immaculately clean and was so cosy, well planned and welcoming. We’ve returned home with lots of very happy memories from our stay at 6 Coastguard Cottages.

"We had an enjoyable stay."
It was comfortable, clean and convenient for the high street and beach. There are three flights of quite steep stairs between the kitchen and master bedroom that may be a challenge for those with mobility issues.

"Dishwasher was patchy."
Salt and rinse aid were ok. No dishwasher cleaner. So we washed by hand a lot. Not a big issue
Low on places to hang wet washing as there is no tumble dryer.
Don’t get me wrong not a complaint - observation. Lovely property had a great time
So sorry to hear about the dishwasher. We really care about our cottage and that our guests have a lovely holiday and we are always on hand to help. As mentioned in our welcome text we are happy to be contacted if there are any questions or issues. We would have loved the opportunity to get the dishwasher fixed for you during your stay. We have now requested a local company to either repair or replace the dishwasher.
Whilst we supply a clothes horse we accept that it is difficult to dry a lot of wet items during the colder months, I hope this wasn't too much of a problem.
Thank you for your feedback, it really helps.

"Great house, fantastic location."
Well decorated, good facilities. All the shops and restaurants are just around the corner, a 2 minute walk at most, but because the house is set back it is very quiet and peaceful. close to the beach, parking wasn't a problem, although I imagine in summer there is a bit more competition for that. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend booking this property.
