    Well equipped, everything you need. Owners lived nearby, very nice and full of conversations, all about local new and walks. I recommend whole heartedly.

    It was a great base for a few nights and we were given great recommendations from Mark of places to go. We would definitely book again! Thanks

  • "Had a wonderful bank holiday weekend at the cottage."

    Modern decor with a cosy cottage feel. Great patio cottage garden for the dogs. Not much available within walking distance for drinks/food but local deliveries were quick and lots of places within a few min drive. Would definitely recommend and will probably return ourselves.

  • "CAVAN COTTAGE IS REALLY LOVELY."

    A FEW IMPROVEMENTS WOULD MAKE IT PERFECT. THERE IS NOT ENOUGH SEATING IN THE LOUNGE. WE WERE 5 ADULTS AND THERE ARE TWO TWO SEATER SOFAS. A PROPER SHOWER OVER THE BATH IN THE SHARED BATHROOM IS A MUST, THE HAND HELD ONE IS REALLY DIFFICULT TO USE AS IT KEEPS POPPING OFF. A TOILET BRUSH IS REQUIRED IN THE ENSUITE. AN OVEN TRAY AND A SERVING SPOON ARE ALSO NEEDED. WE WOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND THE COTTAGE BUT THESE THINGS WOULD MAKE IT AMAZING.

    Thanks for your comments I do agree regarding the seating in the lounge we did think it might be over furnished but we will find 2 single seats to match the sofas..re the shower in the bath we only put that in so guests can wash their hair and clean the bath but it might be a good idea to have a wall mounted one and hinged glass screen…there should have been 2 oven trays that fit on the runners but we will get 2 small trays so that go on the oven shelves ,there should have been a stainless steel serving spoon in the draw below the hob but it might have gone walkies with some tea spoons… Once again thank you very much for the comments it’s very helpful Property Owner

    Spacious, comfortable & well equipped. Very comfy beds, good shower & a bath too. Great location for Southwold & Aldeburgh, lots of walks for the dogs. Sizewell beach is well worth a visit. Highly recommend Cavan cottage.

  • "Well equipped kitchen but some furniture at the end of its life."

    The wooden outside furniture is in poor condition and should have been renovated before the season start. The biggest complaint is poor central heating and hot water temperature. The upstairs was 16 degrees in the morning with no means to control the central heating – I suspect this was done remotely by owner. This despite several guest noting this in the guest book. The hot water temperature was also too low – just about hot enough for a shower but not for a bath and to clean greasy dishes etc. I don’t expect to be cold when on holiday, it’s unacceptable to not provide central heating or means to control it. The listing for the cottage states it has heated towel rails, again these had been turned off with no means of turning them on. Damp towels and a cold bathroom – not what you want from a holiday let.

    Thank you for your comments..re the furniture it is a mix of new and antiques none of which are at there end of there life..the outside wooden furniture has just been renovated now …yes heating is fixed ,20degrees down stairs and 18 upstairs,hot water is 65degrees on continuous ,if you were cold there is log burner to add additional heat .The towel rail in the bathroom is timed to go on at 5am off at 10am then on at 6pm and off at 11pm the towel rail in the shower room timer switch was not working and just needed resetting you could have contacted us plus the other towel rail comes on with the heating ,there was another 4 dry towels you could of used from the other bedrooms Property Owner

    Would recommend more kitchenware for cooking, pans, dishes, bowls as there wouldn’t be enough for a bigger party. Nice welcome beer and crisps thank you. Would return, nice owner too.

    Thank you very much for the feed back it’s very useful as we don’t always know what the guests want I will get more dishes etc I am glad you had a good stay and the weather was good Property Owner

  • "We had a wonderful stay at Cavan cottage- the property was incredibly well equipped with everything we needed."

    Lovely comfortable beds & extremely clean throughout. Welcome basket was a really lovely and appreciated touch. Great location for visiting a variety of places- Southwold, Dunwich, Aldeburgh etc. Of note (as I know it’s mentioned in the listing & some previous reviews), the property is just off the a12 however we didn’t find noise to be an issue at all! Would highly recommend & definitely stay again if we visit the area.

    Thank you for taking time to write a comment it was much appreciated sorry we couldn’t arrange sunny and dry weather for you hope to see you again Property Owner

    An older cottage that has been nicely updated by the current owners. The garden was secure for our two dogs albeit our Labrador has never shown any inclination to scale fences. Fellow pet owners visiting will appreciate the council dog waste bin fixed to a post outside the neighbouring property!

    Provided everything we needed for our weeks stay in Suffolk. Very clean and comfortable. Open plan kitchen is very nice. Only a short drive to the coast. Close by to a petrol station and shop. No pubs open in Yoxford. Not a problem with us but thought should mention it. Don’t think twice about booking this property.

    We will definitely go back. It was very comfy and a great location to visit Suffolk. The hosts are lovely and friendly and very knowledgeable about the local area. The only downside is that there can at times be a lot of traffic noise due to proximity to the A12. We however, found that we got used to it and so was no a problem.
