This beautiful home, nestled amidst a lush private garden, offers a tranquil and restful retreat for a family or a group of friends visiting Suffolk and wanting to escape from the pressures of city living. While it’ll feel like miles away from the hustle and bustle, you’ll also be just a short drive from the picturesque seaside town of Aldeburgh and its gorgeous beaches. The home will greet you with a cheerful exterior, hinting at its history – while you’ll find all the modern comforts here, the place also retains its period character. Come inside to be instantly embraced by the warm and cosy vibe, with the charming living room inviting you to kick back and relax in front of the fire. There are plenty of comfy seating and lounging places here, and you can also enjoy lavish family feasts at the dining table. You’ll be able to rustle up quick and delicious meals in the well-equipped kitchen, and there’s also a barbecue and outdoor seating out on the patio, perfect for those alfresco gatherings in the fresh air. Should you have some work to catch up on or if you simply crave some alone time to create, you’ll love the cosy office with a desk and a small library of books. Later, why not go for a stroll around the extensive garden, where you can get wonderfully lost among the beautiful trees. A night of sweet dreams and restful sleep awaits you upstairs, courtesy of the comfy bedrooms – you’ll wake up feeling refreshed and ready for more Suffolk adventures. Outside, you’ll be a short car ride or a twenty-five-minute walk from Aldeburgh, and there’s also the charming village of Thorpeness to explore. With countless coastal walks and fantastic dining options, this promises to be an unforgettable holiday.

When the sun sets on Aldeburgh, the pastel-coloured houses that line the shore seem to glow and the pebbled beach takes on a rainbow hue. Here, the buildings come right up to the beach, so you just need to hop over the coastal wall to reach the sea. The seaside town was once home to Benjamin Britten, and it still retains its creative pull, with the Aldeburgh Festival of Music...
