"Spacious and comfortable with most things you would need for a holiday."
Only thing to let it down was the noise from upstairs and to some extent next door. There needs to be some sound proofing Wine was a nice gesture but would have preferred a few basics such as tea ,coffee ,sugar etc so we didn't need to go shopping on arrival. Had a great holiday and Spindrift was one of the best places we have stayed in Southwold .

"The WiFi log in details in the welcome book are wrong."
I looked on the router for the correct details. Also the bathroom pictures on the Sykes app are from another property. Bit tricky getting in the main front door as I thought the big key was required. Took 5 minutes wrestling with the lock and ringing the bells before I realised. Other than this the flat was lovely.

"Very clean."
Very up to date with good appliances. Very good pisition for town and beach. Quiet but we were out of season.

"Very comfortable apartment, and the wine and biscuits were a treat - thank you."
Grateful also for being allowed to operate the CH and the bathroom heating. I tried to be careful with both. Just two issues - no batteries in the DVD player remote control. And the radiator in the living room is leaking at the thermostat. Had a wonderful holiday with my little dog, walking the footpaths around Southwold, Walberswick and towards Dunwich. Came across three firsts - a Chinese Water Deer, a weasel, and the boom of a number of bittern hidden in the reeds. Oh, and some delicious hot smoked mackerel from the fishmonger in the harbour. Then coming back to such a comfortable flat. Really enjoyable.

"Very comfortable, warm, welcoming, clean and attractive ( nice bits of art work)."
It is spacious too. Details such as floor heating in bathroom and wine provided on arrival were much appreciated .And the location is perfect, a few minutes walk to the beach and the shops. We ve been twice!

"This was a lovely property and spacious for a two person/one bedroom holiday let."
My only negative comment is the fact that this property comes up when you filter your search criteria on 'open fire'. I know that in the property detail it says that the fireplace isn't a working one but I think it's misleading to say that it has an open fire - I would imagine most people would read that as it to be a working, open fireplace.
Thank you for your feedback, most welcome. We have spoken to Best of Suffolk and asked them to amend. Property Owner

"Flat was clean and well equipped."
Ideally situated for beach front and town. Couldn't find clock radio but that wasn't a problem.

"This holiday home is excellent."
Clean, spacious, well equipped, warm ( in the out of season months) and I loved all the art work around the place. The bed was very comfortable too. The towel heater in the bathroom was a plus feature.
