Felixstowe, Suffolk

Forget fisherman's cottages or humble beach huts – if you want to stay close to the seafront without having to sacrifice any of the trappings of luxury, you're staring at a one-of-a-kind home. Built in the late Victorian era on the top of a cliff, there are glistening sea views to be enjoyed out through the windows and from the large walled garden complete with an alfresco dining table and barbecue.
