5 Bed Cottage in Southwold

About this property

This elegant residence, which neighbours one of Southwold’s most iconic landmarks, is less than 100 metres from the beach and has beautiful bay windows and a wood burner. With five bedrooms including a stunning master suite, it’s the perfect choice for a big group getaway.

With Southwold’s famous lighthouse literally on the doorstep, this deluxe detached property has the wow factor and then some. Stylishly presented throughout, it welcomes guests into a large hallway – walk through and you’ll find a gorgeous, generously proportioned dual-aspect sitting room with two separate seating areas. One has a wood burner and Smart TV and the other has French doors leading onto the garden. A contemporary kitchen/diner and cloakroom complete the ground floor, comfortably providing space for ten to share cooking duties and dine in style. If the weather is fine, step outside from here for food and drinks alfresco. On the lower ground floor, the first bedroom has twin beds plus a Smart TV and Xbox – sure to be a favourite with younger guests. Move up to the first floor and there are two king-size bedrooms, one with fantastic lighthouse views and the other with some sea views, plus a further spacious bedroom with bunk beds. A family bathroom and separate shower room offer versatility and convenience for all. The second floor offers a stunning master suite with exposed brick walls and eye-level Velux windows offering a panorama of the lighthouse, rooftops and sea beyond. Ramping up the retreat-like credentials of this room, there’s a king-size bed and en-suite shower room. Soak up the sunshine and sea air away from the crowds in the paved courtyard garden at the rear of the property. There is a large table and chairs here plus a shower so you can rinse off sandy toes! There’s a garage with space for one car – bikes and beach gear can be stored securely here too.

The upper and lower promenades that edge Southwold’s long sandy beach are less than 100 metres from the front door, while the town’s eclectic mix of upmarket boutiques, galleries, pubs and eateries are little more than 200 metres away. When you’ve finished exploring, just look for the lighthouse and you’ll always find your way home!
