  • "A lovely house that has been beautifully restored ."

    Ideally situated to explore Aldeburgh and the surrounding area.

    Reviewed by Deborah5.0Jun 2024

  • "This is a lovely place to stay, with excellent facilities - everything that we needed in a spacious, comfortable house."

    The only reservation that we had, and this is purely personal, is that the mattress in the ensuite bedroom was too hard for us. We overcame this by robbing another bed of its pillows and duvet, and used these to pad our bed! The location is excellent, being just a short walk from the High Street, down the Town Steps. The hosts were kind and welcoming, and the EV charging point was a plus, and one of the attractions, for us, of staying there. Highly recommended.

  • "Staying at The Old Coach House was a wonderful experience!"

    The owners were very friendly and helpful and we couldn’t fault it in any way. A perfect place to spend time in Aldeburgh!

  • "A comfortable property in a good, central location within Aldeburgh."

    Nicely equipped. Both of the double bedrooms have sloping ceilings, so beware if you’re tall !

  • "Really comfortable accommodation in a great location with easy walking access to all Aldeburgh has to offer."

    We appreciated the information provided especially the guides to local places of interest. Our hosts were very hospitable and welcoming.

  • "Really lovely accommodation and the hosts couldn't have been nicer."

    Greeted us on arrival and left suggestions about what to do in the local area. The Coach House is really conveniently located for the town and access to the beach. The only reason it is marked down for comfort is because the bed in the main bedroom is incredibly firm, which didn't suit me, but that is down to personal preference!

  • "Really lovely holiday rental."

    Great situation in Aldeburgh with very comfortable accommodation & welcoming hosts. Well equipped with everything we needed. We very much enjoyed our stay.

    Reviewed by Paul5.0Jan 2024

  • "The accommodation was very spacious, light and airy."

    The location was perfect for us being both quiet but within walking distance of all the amenities in Aldeburgh. It was also perfect for our two little pooches with the practical stone flooring on the ground floor and the wonderful beach and river walks on the doorstep, not to mention all the dog friendly eateries. It is one of the most dog friendly places we have ever been. One recommendation which we passed to the owners was that the isolator switch for the fan in the ensuite was switched off and we did not realise until well into the holiday as it is quite high up on the wall and we could not find anything about it in the handbook. One other recommendation would be that in the bedrooms where the ceilings slope it is easy to hit your head on it. Perhaps it could be painted with a different colour to make it more noticeable?

  • "Really loved our stay."

    It was a bonus to have the owners next door to give advice as well as a very warm welcome. The OCH is very well equipped and comfortable providing both indoor and outdoor relaxation. The house has been renovate to a very high standard and with sensitivity. Modern but keeping character. Thank you!

    Thank you…look forward to having you back Property Owner

  • "This is the 5th time that we have stayed at the Old Coach House and we love it."

    The open plan living area is perfect with a very well equipped kitchen. The pretty outdoor space is just right for eating outdoors and relaxing and it is a quick walk down the town steps to the sea and the shops.

    We do like it and love the location etc It would be great to upgrade the seating downstairs. A nice comfy corner sofa or larger comfy sofas or chairs would add a lot to helping relax. Otherwise loved our time in Aldeburgh Will be back

    The owners have given good thought to the layout and decorations along with helpful instruction pack for the various appliances / heating etc. The use of the EV Charger was an added bonus, took away any troubles of finding charging stations during the stay.
