Sitting quietly on the Aldeburgh seafront lies this charming cottage. Just off your doorstep, you’ll find the coastal path that will take you down to Aldeburgh Beach and into the village, where you’ll find fish and chip shops, independent galleries and vintage shops. Hire a boat and spend the day on the mere before heading back to your comfortable base. This cottage is perfectly suited to a small family or couple seeking extra space, especially if you’re bringing furry friends with you. There’s a south-facing front garden for sipping your morning coffees, or why not end the evening with a glass of local cider?

Local guide
About Aldeburgh
When the sun sets on Aldeburgh, the pastel-coloured houses that line the shore seem to glow and the pebbled beach takes on a rainbow hue. Here, the buildings come right up to the beach, so you just need to hop over the coastal wall to reach the sea. The seaside town was once home to Benjamin Britten, and it still retains its creative pull, with the Aldeburgh Festival of Music...
