The cottage, which was formerly Reydon High School, has been converted to a very high standard and sits in a peaceful location with easy access to the common, beach, and village amenities - perfect for a family or group wanting to enjoy the sunning Suffolk coast. Located in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Reydon is a leafy village with two shops, a hotel with a restaurant and bars, and is close to Reydon Wood, an ancient woodland which is perfect for walks (1.5 miles from the house). Head to Southwold for a fantastic family day out (2 miles away), where there are two beaches to choose from, as well as a gorgeous promenade and pier, a lighthouse, a summer theatre, museums, and a whole host of shops, cafés, tearooms, pubs, restaurants, and fish and chip shops to enjoy. Catch the foot ferry from Southwold Harbour (2.5 miles away) to the idyllic village of Walberswick, where you can watch the British Crabbing Championships every August.

The house lets in lots of natural light thanks to the large windows of the old school building and features a lovely, bright open-plan sitting room/dining room with comfortable sofas, a TV and patio doors that lead outside to the garden. The kitchen is equipped with everything you could need to rustle up delicious meals. Upstairs are two lovely, light bedrooms, a twin and a double, the latter having its own dressing area and en-suite shower room. There’s also a bright modern family shower room for guests to use.

Patio doors from the dining area lead outside to a smart private garden which has a lawn and patio area with dining furniture and a BBQ, perfect for dining al fresco in the evening sun.

Nice size house, plenty of internal space. Small private garden allows for outside eating and relaxation. Property just a short drive from Southwold and within easy access to surrounding beaches and countryside. Enjoyed our holiday very much and felt comfortable at the cottage - would recommend to small families and dog owners.

Our second stay at Wisteria Cottage. We find it very comfortable and extremely convenient for visiting Southwold and the surrounding area. Parking is so easy and the little cul de sac is very quiet. Nice to be able to sit outside in the garden. Beds are very good and the two sofas in the sitting room are extremely comfortable.

Great place to stay, quiet enough to hear an owl hooting on our late evening walk; the garden is secure enough to let a small dog run around without fear of it wriggling under the gate (although ours was initially puzzled by the fake lawn which I'm not a fan of in real life but for a holiday cottage in the country at this time of year, it made perfRead moreect sense). The cottage is well kept and clean, well equipped and within a reasonable walk of two local shops. We didn't use the garage as there was sufficient parking outside the property. We have stayed in a few cottages in the Southwold area in recent years and this is one of the best; definitely recommend to others and would definitely return. Hide

The cottage is away from the bustle of Southwold, yet only a few minutes' drive away and well placed for visits to Aldeburgh, Walberswick and Halesworth. Extremely comfortable and lovely and light. It had everything we needed and was a cosy base to return to. The garden was sunny and ideal for sitting out with a drink.
