A great property for a family of four, especially if you have older teenagers as there are separate bedrooms for the kids and a cosy front room with TV. The grocery shop across the road is really great with friendly staff.

Lovely cottage

We thoroughly enjoyed our week in your lovely cottage, the walks into Southwold are easily done in 15 mins, Southwold itself is great, we had a few great lunches at the Lord Nelson, fish and chips from the little fish and chip shop and coffees in the morning at the Adnams café, we definitely recommend the cottage and location and will certainly re visit in the future.

Great little find.

Bridget’s cottage was perfect for our needs. Ideally positioned with a shop just opposite stocking a wide range of delicious food and other essentials and just a few minutes drive from the centre of Southwold. The cottage was very clean and welcoming and we very much enjoyed our stay.
