Property code: OC-BSTS

This light and airy property, found on the coast in Southwold, is perfect for couples or groups looking for a seaside getaway with all amenities nearby and easy access to walks in the countryside. Nestled in central Southwold, there are ample shops, pubs and restaurants all within a short distance (0.1 miles) as well as the closest beach being only 0.1 miles away. For a fun outing with the family, Southwold Maize Maze is just 2 miles away, and you can take relaxing boat trips on the River Blyth from Walberswick (9 miles). Aldeburgh and Snape, 18 and 19 miles away respectively, provide year-round concerts and theatre events for that cultural fix.

In the entrance hall there is a shoe rack and coat hooks for after muddy walks. The main living areas are on the first floor: the kitchen has a wooden breakfast bar at one end and sea views from the windows; the open plan sitting room and dining area has two large comfortable sofas and a feature fireplace along with the dining table. The sitting/dining room area is very light thanks to the two grand sash windows. The bedrooms and bathrooms are split over the three levels: on the ground floor you will find the first bedroom with its en-suite shower room; on the first floor there is another bedroom and a bathroom; and on the top floor is the spacious master bedroom which has wooden floorboards with beautiful light and sea views from the French doors.

Walking out of the French doors from the master bedroom there is a balcony with seating for that morning brew or evening drink whilst looking out to sea and leading out of the ground floor bedroom is the shared, enclosed courtyard with garden furniture for socialising.

Fab holiday rental for 3 couples as bedrooms are all very private and good size. Kitchen stocked with good quality glasses etc. May not be advisable for a family as to gain access to garden you have to go through downstairs bedroom, lots of small stairs too! Would use again!

The standard of the property - Brightseas - was excellent. The owners went over and above to make us feel welcome to their property. We were disappointed with the last property we had stayed in - the first real disappointment in the many years that we have been coming to Southwold - and were slightly nervous that we would be met with similar issuRead morees but this was absolutely not the case - the property was more than we had hoped for.. We are all still smiling about our stay! Hide
