We booked last minute and know the area. The cottage was well situated for Orford, Aldeburgh and Woodbridge which were all well appointed for shops, sight seeing and beaches. Loads to do in the local area - including lots of walks from the door. Cottage was comfortable and peaceful and the added joy of the short walk down to the water front. Well dRead moreefinitely be back. Hide
