Boasting plenty of stylish space for socialising, this lovely property in Aldeburgh is the ideal accommodation option for large families or groups of friends in search of a modern home they can use as a base while exploring the stunning Suffolk coastline. With its pastel-coloured villas, traditional seafront promenade and quirky fishermen’s huts, Aldeburgh is a delight to discover. Take a stroll up the attractive Georgian high street (0.5 miles) to check out the boutiques and bistros; see where the composer Benjamin Britten created his works at The Red House (1 mile); and learn all about the Witches of Aldeburgh at the town’s museum (0.5 miles). Alternatively, wander along the beach to visit the 4m-high 'Scallop' statue (0.2 miles), which was designed by celebrated Suffolk-born artist Maggi Hambling. Continuing the creative theme, head to Aldeburgh Beach Lookout and Art House (0.5 miles) or Ballroom Arts (0.5 miles) to browse out the works of the region’s artists.

The house is big and the rooms and bathrooms are well furnished and decorated with good quality art works etc. It is, as can be seen, not in the town centre but the centre is only a pleasant 10 - 15 minute walk away. The garden seemed smaller than the photo on the website suggested and was somewhat overgrown. The main problem we encountered was witRead moreh the cleaning but we took this up with the agents and trust the problem will be remedied. Hide

The house was great. Really well located for beach, town and walking to local supermarkets and Thorpeness. Unfortunately the information on website and in emails is a little outdated. It mentioned there was a garage that could be used to store bikes in and the like. Unfortunately and understandably, once arrived, it made reference in the house filRead moree that the garage is now locked out of use due to repeat previous renters not locking the door correctly. We worked around it, by storing the bikes in our cars, but it would be tricky potentially for future renters with adult size bikes without knowing before arrival. Also we were unable to find the highchair or bbq, which I assume are locked in there too. However we worked around these issues. Hide
