Can’t decide between a romantic city break or a rural seaside retreat? Thanks to this apartment, you don’t have to. It’s been decorated in a chic contemporary loft style, with moody hues, exposed brick walls, pendant lights and a canopied four-poster bed. But when you step outside, you’ll find yourself in Aldeburgh, a pretty seaside town with pubs, independent shops and a world-famous music festival, thanks to its former resident, Benjamin Britten. Take a fifteen-minute walk down to the coastline and you'll see fishermen pull their colourful boats up on the beach and sell fresh fish from the picturesque huts. Walk down the Georgian high street, filled with foodie delights including Slate Cheese deli, Two Magpies Bakery, and Ives Ice Cream Parlour (for your obligatory ice cream by the sea). Cook up a storm in the evening with the fresh produce, or get a takeaway from the Golden Galleon fish and chip shop. And for nature-lovers and ramblers, the home also lies within Suffolk Coast & Heaths - an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Hike through ancient woodland and glorious landscapes for days.
