Ideally situated in the heart of Southwold, this home has everything you need for a romantic trip for two to the seaside. The full-length windows and bright accents in the living-dining area make for a welcoming atmosphere, mixing seaside charm with a modern twist. Start your day with a tasty breakfast while you watch the bustling High Street come to life outside the window. Then, explore the abundance of boutique shops, cosy cafes, delicious delis, and independent restaurants on your doorstep, or saunter down to the nearby sandy beach and breathe in the fresh sea air. Next, you can take a four-minute walk over to the Lighthouse to admire the breathtaking views and immerse yourself in Southwold's history. There are plenty of scenic walking routes nearby, and you can explore the wild Suffolk Coast and Heaths, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Finish the day with a tasting session at Adnams distillery just round the corner, before heading back to put your feet up and relax by the warmth of the fire.
