Located midway between Aldeburgh and Southwold, this charming cottage offers a tranquil base for exploring the Suffolk Coast and Heath Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Westleton is an unspoilt village with a handful of shops and pubs, and an abundance of walking routes on your doorstep. Nature lovers are spoilt for choice with a reserve in the village, plus Dunwich Heath (3.5 miles) and RSPB Minsmere (2.5 miles) within easy reach. The coast offers several traditional seaside resorts, from the lighthouse and pier at Southwold (9 miles) to the artistic town of Aldeburgh (9 miles). The region is rich in heritage too, with castles at Framlingham (12.5 miles) and Orford (16 miles), and Angle-Saxon burial ground at Sutton Hoo (20 miles).

Arranged over two storeys, this three-bedroom cottage offers a beautiful blend of original features and contemporary design. The living room is cosy and comfortable with relaxing sofas and a brick fireplace with a wood burner, set beneath a beamed ceiling. The modern fitted kitchen has stable doors, a lovely brick floor, and a charming dining table with a bench along the wall. The ground floor also accommodates a utility room and a single bedroom. Cottage-style stairs lead to the first floor where there are two elegant bedrooms beneath a beamed ceiling: one double and one small double (suitable for a single person), along with a family bathroom and a separate WC.

Stretching for a third of an acre, the mature lawned garden offers a beautiful spot for a meal or drink alfresco, with garden furniture and a BBQ.
