Great view as so near the sea Accommodation ok Beds comfortable, 2 bathrooms welcome though short on towels Chairs for outside useful and used every day Downsides: shower difficult/ impossible to get warm enough temperature Tank capacity obviously insufficient for number of guests Very short on spoons in kitchen Overall view the best thing Should have paid more as not previously disappointed when using Sykes

It was well equipped in the kitchen and spotless. Having chairs and tables and a clothes dryer was great evenings and wet beach things which could dry the porch all day when we were out. The whole place was bigger than we had thought it was going to be and the children had space to play in the house. Having a TV you can sign into and WiFi was fantastic for the children too. Everywhere was well maintained, clean and comfortable. The gate down the beach meant that we felt the children were safe to run around of the grass outside. Going down the beach was easy and we walked down most nights for rock spotting and paddling. The beach is shingle- Iâm sure it says somewhere in the listing but I donât think I realized quite how shingly it is. Iâd definitely recommend some sort of beach shoes for going down there we got some on the 2nd day and then we were fine. The views of the sea from the house are stunning and waking up to the sounds of the ocean and view is something I miss already! The location of seascape meant that you are central to most of the attractions, we went to Southwold often, Africa alive, Lowestoft and great Yarmouth without any issues and if you get lost anywhere following the signs for Africa alive brings you back easily. I would highly recommend seascape as a place to go on holiday, the owners are kind and make everything very simple. Thank you so much for a lovely holiday!
