"We had a delightful stay in Cragside and would be happy to return and stay there again."
It is very comfortable for two people and in a prime location in the town and very close to the sea. The lack of private parking was not an issue for us in October, as we always found public parking on the street, either across the road, or on the seafront a minute's walk round a corner. It might be more difficult in high season. Only one slight annoyance. The freezer is hidden away in the bottom of a cupboard and not surprisingly has a stiff door, so we were concerned about opening it not knowing what it was. Not a problem once we eventually were told it is a freezer, but it would be good to mention it in the instructions. We would prefer to deal with a local office, not a problem during our stay, but there didn't appear to be an out of hours emergency number. We did wonder how quickly there would have been someone on site in an emergency. Overall a lovely stay.
Thank you for your lovely comments and we are delighted you enjoyed Cragside and your visit to Aldeburgh. Having been sure the freezer was mentioned within our welcome folder we now see you are absolutely right. Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We will amend so all our visitors are well informed. We very much look forward to welcoming you back Property Owner

"We needed ground floor accommodation for elderly parents."
Cragside fitted the bill perfectly, beautiful, clean, and excellent location. We would have liked a little outdoor area to sit but understand why that wasn’t possible. Great use of space though!
Thank you so much for your lovely comments. We are glad to hear you had a lovely stay at Cragside and enjoyed Aldeburgh . Property Owner

"Beautifully appointed luxurious holiday apartment."
Top quality furniture, fixtures & fittings. Very comfortable. Spotlessly clean and very well maintained. We stayed here the late May 2024, but even though it was a bank holiday weekend, found no issues with parking. Free roadside parking opposite. Also very close by, 6pm-8am with 2 free hours parking allowed. So you could park for free 4pm one day, to 11am following day. Plus which, the paying car park is also near. The apartment is ground floor/basement level (on a slight hill), so is a little dark in some rooms at some points in the day. However, the lighting is really well positioned to so it never felt an issue. It is really well located at one end of the High Street and steps away from the beach. Be aware that there is no outside space, but this was no issue for us. A truly practical, but exceptionally beautiful space. We would highly recommend this stunning apartment & would definitely stop there again.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

"We adored Cragside."
The apartment was clean, warm and stylish. Parking was straightforward on the road outside. Aldeburgh is charming. We enjoyed local walks, seal spotting near the Martello Tower, and fish and chips from round the corner. Would completely recommend a short break here. We look forward to returning.

"We enjoyed our stay at Cragside and appreciated the welcome pack."
The flat was well equipped and the décor unusual and imaginative. The online photos of the property are slightly misleading as the property was quite dark internally. The location is great and the parking not too much of a problem. We would certainly consider a return visit.

"The apartment was damp."
It was basically a basement flat. We informed you of this on the second day of our stay. Your response was 'we are only the agents.' Not good enough!

"The property is in an amazing location steps from the beach."
It was perfect for my daughter & I and we loved the decor and the house was equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. My daughter loved the reading nook in her bedroom!

So nice to be just steps away from the seafront..we will certainly recommend Gragside and Best of Suffolk. Just a mention about housekeeping….it was spotless! Thanks for a great week. Sheila.

"The apartment was perfect until you had people move into the properties above."
The general noise of people walking around is tolerable, but music being played late at night was rather intrusive and affected my sleep on a number of occasions. I wont return to Cragside for this reason.

"Cragside was an absolute delight!"
So tastefully decorated and spotlessly clean. We spent a lovely week here and are already looking to book again next year.

The property
Stylish and within easy reach of local attractions, Cragside is an ideal family getaway to Aldeburgh, Suffolk.
Enter into this lower ground floor flat and make yourself at home in the open-plan living area where a tasteful sitting area wears a backdrop of quirky paintings, and an ornamental fireplace adds a sense of history to the building.
From here you will find the kitchen, amply fitted with home-from-home amenities and decorated in a contemporary grey, complementing the rest of the space and overlooking a dining table where guests can enjoy a heart-warming meal or a family games night.
Two bedrooms await your relaxation, each with statement wallpaper and their own unique character, beginning with a king-size with traditional panelled walls, an ornamental fireplace and leopard print wallpaper and a bunk room, perfect for children, with wallpaper depicting plants and matching the décor throughout, and each is within reach of a fantastic bathroom.
Such a stunning property needs an area to match, and Aldeburgh certainly fits this description, with a fantastic high street bustling with independent shops where you can sample local produce, a museum about local history and many eateries including cafes, pubs and fish and chip shops, making a meal out a must.
The pebble beach stretches generously along the coastline, giving you a great place to walk along the shore or embark on your favourite watersports, and there is the option of scenic walks along the Haven Nature Reserve and Snape path.
Further from the town you will find the historic village or Orford with its fantastic castle.
Make a family holiday to remember with a stay at Cragside.
