"The Gallivant is a beautifully appointed apartment providing everything you need for a comfortable stay."
Spotlessly clean and superbly equipped it's clear the owners have put a lot of thought into making this a wonderful base in this lovely area.

"The apartment was beautiful ."
It had everything you could think of if not more. It was lovely and clean and the bed was so comfy. The nice accessories like the feather cushions and a basket for shopping made it feel really special, the gin, tonic and crisps was such a lovely touch. It is a stones throw from the main street with everything on your doorstep and of course the sea and the pier . Parking was great too, just parked over the road for our entire stay. Would highly recommend. Southwold is such a beautiful place and the Gallivant is a super place to stay. .
Thank you for your lovely feedback. We are glad you enjoyed Southwold and The Gallivant as much as we do. Property Owner

"We have stayed in many self catering properties and although it looked good on paper it wasn’t one of our favourite places."
It was very stylish but on somethings lacked comfort. We are not worried about lots of cushions and a throw on the bed but like comfortable sofas and chairs. There was nowhere to store food apart from the fridge and when we bought one of the Magpies lovely loaves there wasn’t a bread bin or anywhere to put it. Overall the kitchen was well equipped apart from storage.
Thank you for your feedback, its always appreciated. We will certainly address the bread bin. We usually just put our bread in the fridge or leave it on our breadboard face down so hadn't thought of that before. We also leave the cupboard by the fridge empty for storage but often visitors move things around so we can only think this must have happened with our previous guests to you and are so sorry.

"A beautiful, stylish and well equipped property in an excellent location."
It is light, airy and very clean. The bed was exceptionally comfortable (I provably the best lights’ sleep for some time) and the welcome gifts were much appreciated. I would definitely recommend it to friends and maybe I would hope that we can return sometime.
Thank you for your kind words. Look forward to you staying with us again . Property Owner

"We have stopped in this apartment on a number of occasions over a few years."
It has recently had an upgrade and doesn’t disappoint.
-
"A lovely flat in excellent location."
Struggled to find parking in streets nearby as advertised so suggest people park at the Common which is within 5 minute walk. Entry door to block is heavy and slams if not closed carefully, so can be noisy if other tenants do take care. Kitchen is well equipped, flat is nicely furnished and bed very comfy. As shower is over the bath it is difficult to use if taller. Would book again if In Southwold
