An airy apartment, right at the heart of bustling Southwold, this first-floor apartment makes a superb base within the colourful, seaside town. Sleeping four guests, the two-bedroom bolthole is just off the high street, with its array of interesting shops, boutiques and galleries, as well as cafes and restaurants. Grab your towels and swimming costumes and stroll just 350 metres down to the long beach, with its iconic row of beach huts or pack a picnic and amble 1 mile through scenic marshland down to the quay to while away an afternoon crabbing. Wander 0.5 miles along the seafront to famous Southwold Pier to have an ice-cream, take in the views and perhaps have fish and chips before heading home.

Enter the building at ground-floor level and follow the staircase up to the first floor. Find yourselves in an open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, with a fresh nautical feel and ample space to spread out and unwind after your long walks and afternoons on the beach. Comfortable seating has been arranged around the Smart TV, while the dining table and chairs are positioned by the window so you can watch the world go by.

Great place in a perfect position! We wondered if being over the bakery would make it noisy in the early morning. But it was all really quiet and peaceful.

Excellent central position on Southwold High Street, with shops, restaurants, pubs in the immediate vicinity. Flat is top quality, comfortable and clean with everything necessary provided, and despite being on the High Street the flat is quiet and cosy. Only one criticism - there is no recycling bin provided for the flat, and we did have quitRead moree a bit of food packaging to dispose of over the course of the week. Could this be looked into please. Hide
