  • A charming cottage with plenty of character in a quiet part of this pretty village
  • The ideal spot to reach the Suffolk Heritage coast, RSPB Minsmere and walks through the Westleton Heaths
  • A family friendly bolthole for seven with gorgeous gardens to enjoy alfresco dining throughout the day
Property code: OC-S27303

From the doorstep you have access to the winding paths of Westleton Heath that meander down towards the Heritage Coast and RSPB Minsmere and is a real haven for wildlife lovers. There is a beautiful circular walk of around 8.5 miles, that explores all this area with a stop at a delicious pub halfway, as well as a wander along the beach at Dunwich. In Westleton village itself, there is an excellent pub (sister to the pub in Dunwich) serving fantastic food, a small convenience store with post office and a tearoom filled with yummy homemade cakes. Westleton is great for exploring the heritage coast, being situated between Aldeburgh (9miles) and Southwold (9 miles). Closer still (6.5 miles) is the stunning coastal village of Walberswick, which has a great deli, two pubs and local shops to peruse. You can also try your luck at catching crabs along the creeks and bridges, so bring your crab lines and buckets - a definite must for your stay.

Sitting in a quiet spot in a leafy lane within the village this family holiday home for six is the perfect escape for those looking to be close by to the sea whilst in a peaceful setting. Formerly two cottages that have been combined into one, this deceptively spacious property has all you could need for your stay. The cosy sitting room boasts a roaring wood burner perfect for breaks in the winter, whilst a south facing sunroom is the perfect place to relax in during the summer. The kitchen is fully fitted with all appliances and meals can be shared together around the dining table. A handy bedroom is on the ground floor with a small double bed along with a small shower room. Upstairs there are three further bedrooms, two identical king size and a single bedroom with trundle bed underneath and all with access to the family bathroom. This really is the ultimate self-catering holiday home for families, walkers those just wanting to get away from it all, and don’t forget to bring the dog along too!

Outside to the rear of the cottage is a lawn area, beautifully landscaped with a wooden terrace and dining table for alfresco breakfasts, lazy lunches in sun and scrumptious suppers.

  • 4 bedrooms – 2 kingsize, 1 small double and 1 single

Really lovely cosy cottage with an interesting history, especially if you are familiar with Minsmere. Nice walks on the doorstep. Generous welcome pack was appreciated. Westleton is very well placed for visiting many nearby locations like Dunwich, Southwold & Aldeburgh and has a nice pub, shop and tea room.

A lovely hamper provided by the owners was very thoughtful, along with treats for the pooch too. Beautifully decorated for Christmas which was very welcoming on arrival. Very comfortable beds! The local pub, The Crown in Westleton, provided great food and is just a few minutes walk from the cottage - worth booking in advance though.

A lovely house to stay in a great location, wish it had been sunny when we were there and not during a storm. We stayed warm and merry though. (note for others: wifi code only seemed to work for us when scanning the QR code from router, entering the password didn't work)

There were 6 adults in out party we found the cottage comfortable and easily accessible, my elderly mum can't walk very far, the little walk down/up the small sloped road was a challenge for her. But everything else was easy to access.

We have had a wonderful week at Suffolk Punch Cottage.
