About this property

Situated near the beautiful River Alde in the magical seaside town of Aldeburgh, this gorgeous coastal getaway has been beautifully furnished to create an interior design haven. Sleeping eight guests, this retreat is perfect for families and large groups seeking a peaceful getaway to the sandy shoreline of the Suffolk coast.

The calming neutral colour palette and trendy décor throughout this retreat create the ultimate peaceful space to unwind with loved ones. Flop down on the comfy chair beside the bay window in the snug or gather the gang in the adjoining lounge to catch the latest blockbuster on the Smart TV. Head through to the light and bright dining room to enjoy a locally sourced feast that’s been prepared in the contemporary farmhouse-style kitchen. Lose yourself in spectacular views across the Aldeburgh estuary from the bi-fold doors and fabulous balcony in the second-floor lounge with its inviting interiors, stylish sofas and games table. Boasting views of the garden, estuary, boatyard or sea, the four exquisitely designed en-suite double bedrooms guarantee a peaceful night’s rest. Outside, the pretty rose garden is the ideal setting for sunset drinks and al fresco dining.

Admire the sights of bobbing fishing boats and fishermen selling the daily catch from the colourful huts at the charming seaside town of Aldeburgh. Spend a summer’s day strolling along the quaint promenade lined with 19th-century pastel-coloured villas before skimming stones out to sea at Aldeburgh Beach less than half a mile away. Enjoy breathtaking views seawards and inland following the river towards Orford (12 miles) whilst you peruse the Georgian high street boasting independent boutiques, cafes and restaurants. Housed in the iconic Moot Hall, a 16th-century Grade I-listed building, head to Aldeburgh Museum half a mile away to uncover the local area's rich history.

      This a super home in a great location for high street access. For a family booking it was perfect. Simple question to ask is would we return and the answer is a definite yes.

      We have been coming to Aldeburgh for years and this was the first time we have seen this property on the letting market. The house has been superbly fitted out with every thing one could possibly need. The beds were comfy and the bedrooms had more than enough stowage. The bathrooms were excellent. The kitchen was huge and very well equipped - our granddaughter loved the ice maker in the huge American fridge - and the range cooker was brilliant. The house is in arguably the best position in Aldeburgh, just about the last house going south down the High Street, only a short dash from the wonderful White Hart pub/pizzeria and the Aldeburgh fish & Chip shop. Very handy too for lovely walks along the embankment towards the Martello tower - we often saw seals - and for walks up river and back via Park Road. We'll certainly be back!
