About this property
Located on the outskirts of Aldeburgh, Marsh Lodge is a stylish coastal retreat comprising two connected apartments, each with their own private kitchen, sitting and dining area, and bedroom with a super-king bed and en-suite. Both enjoy views across the marshes and the River Alde. With space for one dog, it’s perfect for two couples, individuals, or families, offering privacy when you need it and togetherness when you want it, making it a peaceful and restorative escape.
Step inside Marsh Lodge, where a utility room/hallway with a staircase separates the two apartments. Each property has its own private front door, divided by the staircase. Both apartments have well-equipped kitchens, sitting and dining areas, and bedrooms with a 6’ super-king bed and en-suites. The spaces flow effortlessly, perfect for sharing meals, relaxing together, or enjoying quiet moments apart. Both apartments feature an electric log-effect stove, creating a cosy atmosphere for curling up with a book or unwinding after a day exploring the coast.
Outside, Marsh Lodge offers a thoughtfully designed front garden with seating and new planting, creating secluded corners for morning coffee or alfresco dining. The surrounding area invites leisurely walks through the marshes and along the river, while Aldeburgh’s cafés, independent shops, and coastal paths are just a short stroll away. Whilst attached to the owner’s home, Marsh Lodge very much sits in its own space. Guests have access to the large area of lawn to the front of the house with seating and designated parking beyond the cart lodge. The views from both properties are spectacular - overlooking the glorious and unspoilt marshlands of the River Alde.
The apartments can also be booked separately search for: Marsh View or River View.

Fantastic couples retreat. Marsh Lodge is the perfect place to stay to explore the Suffolk coastline. The Lodge is really well equipped and has everything you need to make it a home from home. The sunsets over the marsh land/river are fantastic! We traveled with my husbands family and Philip, our dog so having the two self contained apartments was absolutely ideal and felt really private. It is ever so slightly out of town so for those who want to visit the pubs in Aldeburgh be sure to source a taxi before hand as they are pretty sparse and Uber is not an option. Over all fabulous place to stay, exceptional clean - especially considering dogs are allowed downstairs and I would most definitely recommended a visit.

Beautiful stay near Aldeburgh. Itâs great to stay in a holiday rental where the environment has been cared for. Clean, well decorated, nice linen and of course the river views.
