Seawall Cottage in Aldeburgh is praised for its superb location, comfortable beds, and well-equipped kitchen. Guests appreciate the private parking and the property's potential, with some returning for multiple stays. While some minor maintenance issues and cleanliness points are raised, the overall experience is positive, with the cottage's charm and convenience standing out.
The cottage generally appears clean, but some guests noted areas for improvement such as finger marks on glass surfaces, splashes on kitchen units, and a less-than-pristine WC. Bedding protectors were also mentioned as stained, suggesting a need for a deeper clean in some areas.
The location is consistently lauded as excellent, with the property being just a short walk from the sea, shops, and cafes. The convenience of the location contributes significantly to the positive experiences of the guests.
Comfort levels are generally good, especially regarding the beds. However, some guests found the lounge and kitchen chairs uncomfortable, and there were comments about the difficulty of using some furniture due to age or health issues.
The property is well-equipped, but there are several mentions of maintenance issues such as a problematic shower control and loose toilet seats. The presence of an electric car charger is a plus, but the need for repairs detracts from the overall score.
