For a relaxing holiday at the seaside with friends and family, book a stay at this semi-detached cottage in Pakefield. This high-quality accommodation is in a quiet suburb of Lowestoft, a popular coastal town with plenty to offer the visitor including restaurants, theatres and beaches. You’ll have a pub nearby (500 metres) as well as a variety of shops within 0.5 miles. The sand dunes and beach are just under a mile away. If you fancy a dose of greenery, you could head to Carlton Marshes (2.5 miles), a nature reserve where cattle graze during the warmer months.

The house, which adjoins the owner’s property, has its own private entrance. Once inside, you’ll soon notice brightly painted walls throughout that bring character and warmth to this property. On the ground floor, you’ll have a large sitting room with plenty of comfy seating, a Smart TV and a wood burner for keeping warm in winter. From here, you can walk through to the dining room, a welcoming space with a table and chairs for enjoying meals together. The attractive kitchen has a flagstone-style floor and cream units, plus everything you need to cook up delicious meals – as well as a high-quality coffee machine. There’s a downstairs WC, too, for your convenience. Head up to the first floor and you’ll find three comfortable bedrooms. There’s a king-size bedroom with an en-suite shower room featuring a wet room-style shower and WC, plus a double bedroom and a twin bedroom. The family bathroom also has a wet room-style shower.

Outside the property, you’ll have your own enclosed garden with a furnished patio, a lawn and lots of well-established plants. This is where you’ll find the hot tub, which is ideal for relaxing after a busy day exploring. There’s also a pizza oven (which is for the owner’s use only). During your stay, the owner will be happy to show you his beehive collection.

Carisbrooke is a super cottage, with bright and modern decor. The three bedrooms are extremely comfortable and the quiet cul-de-sac location allows for a great night's sleep. There is a fully equipped kitchen including a varied range of utensils and a large dining room adjacent. The living room has a TV with some streaming services and a range of DRead moreVDs for visitors to use. Best of all is the tremendous hot tub which is kept at the ideal temperature and we made full use of this facility throughout our stay. Our hosts were very attentive and we had a fantastic welcome package including home-baked bread and cake. Nothing was too much trouble and Steve gave us recommendations of places to visit and things to do whilst we were there. Definitely recommended. Hide

Beautifully looked after property that had everything we needed and more. The hot tub was nice and the beds and sofas etc. were all comfortable. Location was perfect for a walk down to the sea and into the town. Steve and Maureen were delightful and the home made goodies on arrival were delicious. Honestly couldn't recommend this place more.

Good prompt communication prior to our holiday. The property is very well kept and equipped. We found being able to charge our electric vehicle useful and enjoying the hot tub at the end of the day, were the main benefits of the property.
