"Brilliant break just to be able to sit in a quiet spot immediately overlooking the harbour and the sea beyond whilst watching the cycle of the tides through the various windows is very therapeutic. The comfortable apartment on the top floor of this historic grade 2 listed building is ideal for two with a good size lounge and bedroom all overlooking the harbour and sea whilst the dining area, the well equipped kitchen and the ensuite bathroom face the large terraced garden at the back. The apartment reflects well on the friendly owners, Debs and Alastair, who do all they can to please whilst seeking to ensure that the accommodation is well maintained and equipped to a high standard. From this location everything in the town is within a short stroll. We would recommend considering contacting the Tourist Information in advance to get a parking permit as free parking in the road immediately outside is limited."

"We found Crown Cottage a bit disappointing. It looks charming, just like the pictures on the website, and has the basic facilities (except a shower) but is in reality somewhat past its best, some things are a bit tatty, or just old, like the ancient storage heaters (we had a very cold first evening and night). The house was grubby in a lot of areas (especially the oven and fridge). It has a nice little enclosed garden, but even this is somewhat unkempt. The house itself is in a nice peaceful location, handily mid-way between Bury St Edmunds and Sudbury, ideal for exploring the local area, and the village itself is very pretty. If the house was cleaner and the fixtures and fittings were renewed, it would be a lovely place."

"Arndale Cottage was a fantastic base, a beautiful cottage and with more than enough space for two couples and two toddlers. The garden is lovely, and was visited daily by sheep - although this did render it difficult for the children to play in amongst what the sheep left behind! We have been assured by the attentive, efficient and very pleasant Property Manager, Neil, that this is being taken care of by the farmer...and we've no doubt it will be. The Aga in the kitchen took a little getting used to, but was fine to use - and suffice to say we will certainly consider staying at Arndale Cottage again. A genuinely lovely place to stay."

"The weather was amazing so the whole week worked really well. The cottage was ideal for our needs. The car did not move all week. Parking initially an issue but kind neighbour advised us. Could have done with more serving type dishes in kitchen. We mentioned fridge door storage at the time I believe a new kitchen is due. Please don't lose the style of the kitchen it complimented the cottage and surroundings. Garden and outside seating was lovely we didn't know which way to face with the beautiful surrounding views. I have fallen in love with Ullswater, Glenridding and the surround the cottage was great."

"Received a lovely, friendly welcome on arrival from Paul with good local advice on where to eat, shop etc.On the positive side beds were comfy and good quality towels.Overall the cottage was dark and looked tired. The kitchen was adequate but not as clean as I would like and cooker, microwave old.Outside was in need of a tidy up too with parking a little tight (but we do have a big car).Be good to have candles or torches that work to help if there is a power cut (as we experienced).Good pub next door and a great butchers open in the mornings on the green. Highly recommend."
