Robert

It is a glorious location in the middle of the park and conveniently close to Southwold and other places of special interest. The room we stayed in (Southwold) was spacious and full of character with its over-arching beams. It was also well equipped with generous storage space and excellent plumbing. Full marks for the informative folder!

We liked the individuality of Southwold and in particular its art galleries where there is a lot of art work of quality and reasonably priced. The quirky pier is appealing (despite the fact that the splendid water-clock is currently out of order) and the sandy beach is a joy to walk along. Out Saturday night meal at Coasters was one of the highlights of our stay with great food and service. A bonus we appreciated was the fact that parking was free in the car park near the town centre, an absolute rarity for contemporary England!RobertUnited Kingdom - 10Scored 10

Beautiful weekend spent enjoying the brewery tour, eating in the swan hotel, a walk along the pier and beach path. There are some very good artisan bakerys, and 2 wonderful fish and chip shops. Wished we would have had the time to visit the lighthouse.suzanneUnited Kingdom - 10Scored 10
Lovely sandy beach with a long promenade.
Lovely sandy beach with a long promenade. Pier had two cafes and a couple of nice gift shops. Town center had a good selection of shops and was clean and tidy. There was a very nice putting green with a small cafe. Liked it so much we are returning later this year

We had never been to Southwold before.
We had never been to Southwold before. We stayed in the area because we were attending a wedding at Henham Park. What a delightful surprise! From the beach and colourful beach huts, to the lovely independent shops and plenty of cafes, pubs and restaurants it had the unspoilt charm of times gone by. We especially enjoyed the harbour area and were only sorry that we were just there for a long weekend . We’ll definitely come back and explore more.Salter - 10Scored 10

Although Southwold is best seen on a warm, sunny, wind-free day, we enjoyed our trip at the end of April, despite the cold wind! We walked to Walberswick and back along the paths available, stopping at a lovely café there before continuing the walk. We crossed the river via the ferry (£2.00 each) which saved us from a longer trip. There is a good, sandy beach with dunes if warm, & a pier selling drinks & lunch at the far end of the town. Opposite the pier is a small Putting Green & café. We stayed at The Crown which was central to the various quality shops, a lovely bakery & the Adnams brewery/shop. There is a range of pubs to suit all tastes & several teashops to choose from. Car parking is at each end of the town, but if hills are a problem, I would suggest parking at the top car park rather than at the pier end. There is also a lighthouse in the centre of town which offers tours. All in all, a good day out!PamUnited Kingdom - 10Scored 10
A real seaside gem.
A real seaside gem. Plenty of pubs (but they do get busy in the season) shops and a long beach with a pier. The afternoon tea at the Swan I would declare the best I've ever had. The adnams brewery and distillary tours are worth doing if of interest. A place of charm, pleasent walks, slowly drunk coffees and letting the world slow down a bit.AnnieUnited Kingdom

- 8.5Scored 8.5Very goodRated very good· 868 reviewsThe location was ideal with just a 25 minute walk into Southwold. A very quiet area. The newly finished patio area is excellent. Overall decoration and presentation of Hotel was also excellent. Friendly staff. Breakfasts were brilliant and the two evening meals we had were lovely. Local buses to nearby towns within easy walking distance. We were in a Fire Exit room and we initially had a problem opening the Fire Exit door but this was soon sorted out by the staff.
TrevorUnited Kingdom - 8.3Scored 8.3Very goodRated very good· 18 reviewsNice house felt very peaceful and spacious for just the two of us. Shower broke while we were there and was replaced/fixed the same day which was great. Nice 20ish mins walk into Southwold kept us away from the maddening crowd! Garden was lovely (although it rained nearly every day we were there unfortunately). Everything that was needed was there with a few exceptions (see below)PaulUnited Kingdom
- 10Scored 10ExceptionalRated exceptional· 4 reviewsA fantastic cottage in the heart of Southwold with private parking. The owners had thought of everything to make it a home from home. It was spotlessly clean with gorgeous welcome gifts for us and our dog. Ideally situated for the beach and town and communication from the owner was amazing, with lots of information about cafes, dog friendly places to eat and places of interest.
