Property code: OC-KIT

Located on the edge of the village of Reydon, in Suffolk, sits this comfortable three-bedroom cottage. It’s perfectly located for couples or families who want tranquillity. Reydon is a leafy village with a handful of shops and a beautiful wood nature reserve just 1 mile away. The busier coastal town of Southwold is 1.5 miles from the property and can be reached by bike, bus, or on foot. Stroll along Southwold Pier or head to the sandy beach and swim in the sea. Alternatively, climb Southwold’s lighthouse where you’ll be rewarded with stunning panoramic views from the top.

The ground floor lounge is a welcoming space with elegant decor and light tones. Awash with natural light, it has all the home comforts you could ask for: plump sofas, ambient lighting, and pleasant artwork on the walls. When the weather is good you can push open the French doors that open out onto the pretty courtyard and let the outside, in. From the lounge, step through to the light-filled kitchen, featuring coastal touches and completed by a table seating four. Stairs lead up to the first floor where creamy tones sweep through the three bedrooms: two doubles and a single. All the rooms are bright and breezy with cheerful artwork on the walls and wardrobe space. One of the double bedrooms also has views over the paddocks. A good-sized bathroom is also on this floor.

Outside, the south-facing courtyard is a pleasant spot for morning coffee or evening drinks. Private and tranquil, during the day sit at the garden table and enjoy feeling the sun on your face. The rear garage can also be accessed from the garden.

We had a wonderful week at Kittiwake Cottage. It could not have been more comfortable or better equipped with clean and modern facilities. Thank you so much for a perfect stay. In this dismal summer, we were blessed with warm sunny weather (last week of June 2024).

We have stayed here several times over 7 years and we will be back again, we find it the perfect size for 3 or 4. The cottage is always very clean, well kept and presented with ample storage for clothes/luggage. We have found the area to be quiet and peaceful, a real home from home . The downstairs loo is a big plus. Parking at the cottage isRead more good and the cottage is very local to Southwold and surrounding areas of interest. We do miss the welcome pack that seems to be a thing of the past, it made a really nice warm welcome. Hide

This is the sixth year that we have stayed at Kittiwake Cottage and we have never been disappointed by the standard to which it is kept. This year rooms have been redecorated and a new shower has been fitted as well as other improvements.
