"I booked this for my family as my husband and I were celebrating a special (big!"
) wedding anniversary. It’s a lovely house in a great position for walking, and my young grandson was especially appreciative of the big Christmas tree that had been put in the lounge. It made everything look very festive!
It’s a bit out on a limb (as indicated in the description of the property) so if you’re not fairly fit you will have to get in the car to get anywhere.
It is spacious and well equipped. So often my experience with holiday homes is that the quantity of cutlery and plates etc is equivalent to the number of guests, but here there was plenty available. The beds were spacious and comfortable. It’s very suitable for anyone with mobility issues with its ground floor facilities and step free access. The shower downstairs is a cubicle with with a small step into it which I managed with no problem, although a grab rail would have been useful to have. But that’s a minor issue in what was a lovely weekend away.

"Possibly the best property we have stayed at as a family, perfectly located on the beach, impeccably furnished by someone with a good eye for detail, which left us relaxing in luxury."
I’d give 11 out of 10 if I could

"Dunes is a beautiful house."
Location is amazing with fantastic views and perfect for walking into Southwold and getting the ferry to Walberswick. The house has everything we needed and was spotless. Thank you for a fantastic stay.

"Staying at the Dunes is a total joy!"
It’s like walking in to an exciting warm hug, with the added extra of a wonderful view and direct access to the dunes and beach. It is as comfortable for just two people, as it is when we had all 7 of our extended family there. The enclosed and safe garden is a massive bonus for both dogs and children. Beautifully equipped, everything works and has been planned with ease of use and fun in mind. Thank you for allowing us to share such a perfect place,

"Everything about the house was high quality with a couple of exceptions."
At this price point rattan style garden chairs are not acceptable as lounge furniture.
Also sky sports subscription would be an excellent addition to the property.
Other than that no complaints at all.

"We had such a fantastic stay at The Dunes, one of the best holiday homes we have stayed at."
It was clean, well equipped and beautifully decorated and the location was perfect for strolling to Southwold or down the harbour to get fish and chips or the little ferry across to Walberswick. It was home from home and we all thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Would highly recommend booking The Dunes and we will be returning in the future!

"Hi, the Dunes are so comfortable, and all you can do is chillout and we absolutely love the location."
When you first arrive the front of the property does not do it justice and when you walk in it’s just so homely. This was our second time and we are looking to book again for a 3rd.
Cant wait to go back.

"We loved the location of the holiday home."
To be able to walk out of the garden gate on to the dunes and the beach was ideal for us with two small children and a dog.
Having three bathrooms and a downstairs loo was very convenient. The furniture was comfortable and practical and we were impressed with the number of games to play.
The kitchen was well equipped and we even managed to bake a birthday cake.
The bar area was great and so was the general decor.

"Staying in the Dunes was perfection."
The cottage was beautifully appointed with attention to detail in every area, it gave our senses a zing and our bodies a cuddle. The position is wonderful in all weathers, for everyone…big, small & hairy. We have just rebooked for next year!
Glad to hear The Dunes ticked all your boxes and look forward to welcoming you again next year. Thank you for your feedback

"Beautifully decorated and very clean."
Wonderful position and very nice garden.
The only drawback that Bedroom 3 upstairs was very hot (a fan would improve this),
Despite this, we have just booked The Dunes again for next year!

"Fabulous accommodation in a great location for the beach and for enjoying all that Southwold and Walberswick offer."
We enjoyed our 4 nights in March and looking forward to returning for longer in the summer.
Parking will be easier when the dropped curb is sorted but this is really a minor niggle ;)

"The property has been skilfully up dated and very nicely furnished internally , however, had we been a party of 8 we would have found 2 of the claimed 4 double bedrooms far to small to be comfortable ."
That apart, internally it was 1st class . Externally it is a disappointment . It is at odds with all the effort that has been made inside . It's situation and general presentation is poor .
Thank you for booking the Dunes, I do hope you enjoyed your stay in Southwold.
Sorry to hear the bedrooms were not to your requirements, it hasn't been a problem so far.
I totally agree with your comments regarding the exterior of the house. Southwold is in a conservation area and therefore any renovations to the exterior of all properties require planning consent. I am pleased to say that consent has now been granted for a full width dropped kerb and driveway, a side porch, new windows and doors and alterations to the garden and patio.
As the house is in huge demand, the problem now is actually having the time to carry out the work?! However, I am looking to complete all of these by the end of the year, in order to bring the standard of the outside to the same as in inside. Thank you for your feedback. All the best.
