The Photographer’s House is an exceptional property. We had such a lovely week here. It was ideally located in the heart of pretty Southwold, in easy reach of the beach, bakeries and brewery. It was very well equipped and comfortable and the owners couldn’t have been more helpful. We especially enjoyed eating breakfast on the sunny terrace, evening strolls on the nearby beach, and exploring beautiful Suffolk.
