"We really enjoyed our stay at Satis Cottage which was exactly as described."
It made for a lovely short break in a beautiful part of the country. We enjoyed exploring the village and local area and Satis cottage made a great base. The dogs particularly enjoyed it and thank the owners for the treats and making them feel so welcome too. Thanks too for our welcome wine - much appreciated.

"We had a fabulous stay at Satis Cottage."
We were so pleased with the little extras provided throughout the cottage very thoughtful of the owners. We felt at home in the cottage everything was perfect. Super comfy beds and fab shower. Loved the bath and made use of it! Kitchen and dining room perfect for cooking everything provided and lounge relaxing for evenings. The utility room is so useful when you have dogs and the garden enclosed. The only thing was the website states a freezer in the utility room and it's a second fridge. Luckily could just fit our dogs frozen raw food in the tiny freezing section so it was okay. Definitely be back to Satis Cottage love the location and spent many evenings across road in the Crown!

"A lovely cottage."
Very clean except for the carpets and sofa which let the cottage down. The backyard was very disappointing. Overgrown shrubs made it feel dark and damp. The weather was sunny but no sun reaches the backyard in mid September except for one corner at midday. We couldn't sit there though because there's a large plastic storage box in the way. This should be on the other side of the yard. We won't book this cottage again because of the backyard.
Thank you for your feedback, we have booked in for the carpets and sofas to be professionally cleaned and do thank you for bringing this to our attention. For the garden, we do apologise and can assure you this is being worked on regularly going forwards. We hope we can welcome you back in the future. Property Owner

"We loved Satis Cottage but there are a few points to note!"
- Directions weren't great and we couldnt find it! - suggest you say its next to the garage! - After a very long journey We couldnt get it and eventually discovered the front door had been bolted from the inside! - We tried to call the contact number provided as we couldnt get in and nobody answered and we couldnt leave a message - We eventually got in through the garage thankfully! - The key safe is difficult to access above a plastic storage shed and wasnt locked
Thank you so much for leaving your feedback and raising these points. We will check the direction details to ensure these are as useful as possible. The key safe is in the back garden and you just need to walk round the side to get there, we will make sure this is also more clear on instructions. We do hope that despite this, you enjoyed your stay and hope to welcome you back in the future. Property Owner

"We stayed last September, the property feels a little tired compared to our previous visit."
The house was bitterly cold on arrival, the heating was set to minimum when the external temperature was 7 degrees Celsius The upstairs bathroom shower head is damaged and consequently floods the bathroom every time it is used..The garden/ yard was overgrown and generally unkempt. The house is in a great location but requires some serious tlc.

"Satis cleancottage was fabulous."
It was lovely clean and comfortable, it was equipped with everything that you could imagine right down to tinfoil. The bed was very nice to sleep in, both the up and down bathrooms were fabulous. The cottage was beautiful, I'm just sorry we couldn't stay longer, we will most definitely come back for another stay hopefully longer. It was a lovely break Thank you Lesley, Terry xx Runy and Norman

"Gorgeous cottage in a lovely village with great facilities."
Warmed up quickly for our few days away. Everything needed was provided in the kitchen with nice touches of handwash and lotion by all the basins. We made a note of maintenance updates in the book provided as the vacuum cleaner didn’t appear to be sucking up! Glass recycling is now on the road out to Leiston and not at the village hall so needs updating in the info folder.

"Nice cottage in a lovely location and as described, however it needs some improvement."
The garden is overgrown and has not been maintained, the dining room carpet is very stained, the dishwasher doesn't seem to work properly and there were light bulbs not working.
Thank you for drawing these things to our attention. I have ensured that the things that needed attention have been attended to. Property Owner

"The inside of the property was lovely and comfortable and well equipped, the outside could do with a bit of tidying and maintenance, the rose was so overgrown that you couldn’t see the property name."
One of the toilets was not flushing on arrival and although the maintenance team responded quickly it needs a more permanent fix, also bad phone signal made it hard to contact the company, overall a good place to stay for
Thank you for your feedback on the beautiful Satis Cottage. We appreciate you flagging these issues with us and we will aim to get them resolved as soon as possible. We are glad that you thoroughly enjoyed your holiday besides these points, and hope to welcome you back again in the future. Property Owner

"The propery is much smaller than the photos suggest."
We found it clostrophobic.The garden is overgrown and needs a tidy up. We put the brown garden bin out for collection and contacted the council when not collected. The bill has not been paid. The garage two doors away park cars where they stop and clutter pavements and the cottage drive. Although well situated for touring the area we thought the property was overpriced.A paint job on the outside would not go amiss.

"Pretty little cottage, superbly positioned close to both Aldeburgh and Southwold with Dunwich just a few mins drive away which is stunning."
Nice friendly pub opposite and the village shop is well stocked. If you don't want to do a 'mainstream' supermarket there are farm shops and a very good Budgens 5 mins away at Darsham. The high quality kitchen is very compact (not an issue for me at all) and I used the large and very useful utility room for storing our groceries (to note there are two fridges, one in the kitchen, one in the utility for perishables). The only kitchen "bits" I thought could be included with the cutlery/utensils are a pair of scissors, corkscrew, can opener but I normally pack this kind of thing anyway whenever I go away. Good quality bedrooms and bedding made for relaxing sleeps. We enjoyed mostly good weather so were able to sit out in the little courtyard garden :) The owners have put helpful instructions in the utility room to inform guests how things work including the radiators - we downloaded the App as suggested which was really good. All in all a super & much needed week away in a lovely cottage which I thought was excellent value for money and we would definitely like to return.
Thank you so much for your feedback. I’m sorry to hear you didn’t find the utensils you needed. There are two little drawers, one in each corner cupboard that contain these, so if we are lucky enough to have you as guests at Satis cottage again have look in there. We will also pop a sign up to let others know they are there. Property Owner

Saxmundham 6 miles; Southwold 9 miles; Aldeburgh 15 miles.
Westleton is an idyllic village near the Suffolk coast, nestled between Southwold and Aldeburg and offers all the attributes you could hope for in a Suffolk village, with a village green complete with pond and ducks. The village is easily accessible from the local train station at Darsham approximately two miles away. The village has a store, a bookshop where you can also enjoy a tea or coffee whilst browsing, an old fashioned garage, as well as two pubs, The White Horse Inn and The Westleton Crown, one of Suffolk’s best traditional inns where the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, William and Kate held their first wedding anniversary. Every August, Westleton hosts the infamous Barrel Rolling Fair where contestants have to roll barrels down the Village Green using a pole, and the men have to roll the barrel back up the hill too. Barrels are supplied and all are welcome to join in! The local Emmerdale Farm Shop and Butchery as well as a tea shop is approximately a mile away. The area is a haven for nature lovers with Westleton Heath National Nature Reserve, Dunwich Forest, Dunwich Beach with its famous fish and chip shop located on the beach, and the RSPB Minsmere, all close by. The town of Saxmundham, 6 miles away, is located on the River Fromus, in the heart of Suffolk’s Heritage Coast and is well serviced with independent shops, supermarkets and a train station, as well as art galleries, a weekly market and a farmers’ market.
