Discover the charm and attractions of the coastal resort of Southwold, with this traditional whitewashed cottage as your base. Within half a mile you can see historic attractions such as the town’s operational lighthouse, Victorian pier and artillery canons; go putting on the green, boating on the pond, shopping at the town markets; and have a night at the theatre or cinema. A little further afield you’ll find a golf club (0.5 miles), a maze made of maize (2 miles), the dunes of the Denes (5 miles), the Benacre National Nature Reserve (5.5 miles) and Henstead Exotic Gardens (7 miles).

This welcoming property is designed with comfort in mind. The homely lounge is furnished with an ornamental fireplace, a sofa and wicker chairs, with books, a TV and a music system provided for entertainment.

Been many times to Southwold but first time booking White Cottage. Great location and layout. Bonus is a modern shower. Walking distance to everything in town including Walberswick Ferry and Harbours Inn. Would definitely recommend and will look to rebook next year.

We loved our stay at this cottage. The double bed was a bit on the soft side but comfortable nevertheless. The kitchen is fairly well equipped. We would love to come and stay again in White Cottage.

We have been going to Southwold yearly for the past 25 years and have found that White Cottage has been the best of the many places we have stayed. Now we find out when it is available and book our time round it .
