    What our customers say about their holidays

    • Mrs Gaffney - Verified booking

      The house was even better than we had expected .. absolutely perfect for 6 adults, 2 teenagers, an 8 year old and 1 well behaved dog. The occasion was an important family one … my 80th birthday(!), so a delicious roast dinner was prepared and cooked in the amazingly well-equipped kitchen, by 1 couple with assistance from extra hands for peeling etc. Those in the house, as well as further family of 5 adults and a 4 and 2 year old, staying nearby all ate comfortably in the dining room and breakfast area. There was an enormous amount of space for children to play safely, or watch tv, allowing the adults to relax and thoroughly enjoy themselves. The weather was chilly but bright and we all walked to the Harbour Inn along the beach, dunes and track, as well as exploring the town. The house was ideally situated a short walk from everywhere .. the pier, the beach and the shops. Perfect in every way. We will definitely come to Southwold House again and have already recommended it to several friends. Thank you to the owners for allowing us to share your magnificent property!

    • Pat Cartwright - Verified booking

      My family and I enjoy our annual visit to Southwold, this year's was made even more memorable by our stay in Southwold house. Everything about the house is really great. The decor is beautiful, enhanced by the attention to detail, lots of pictures etc. The large kitchen, very well equipped. Very comfortable lounge plenty of seating. The master bedroom is delightful, so spacious, and well appointed. Every room is furnished to a high standard. Bedding is very good, lovely, good sized soft towels. We all loved the house, definitely the best we have stayed in over the last 20 odd years and hope to return next year.

    • Ms Sims - Verified booking

      There is nothing negative to say about Southwold House! It's a beautiful house with comfortable furnishings throughout and set in a perfect location close to the sea. It's a large house and we were concerned it would feel a bit chilly for a winter break however we were all very cosy and comfortable. All six bedrooms were of a good size with comfortable beds etc. The kitchen is well stocked and a great sociable area, we made a full roast dinner with no problem at all. There are 3 other downstairs living areas and we made use of all of them. I would definitely return to this property.

    • Mrs Alison Burgess - Verified booking

      The property was lovely and was everything that was stated on the website. A few things were noted though: The ensuite bathroom needs a mirror. The sink plug in the first floor bathroom leaks and doesn't hold the water in the sink. The first floor double bedroom doesn't have any drawer space It would be good for the property to have coasters - we couldn't find any and were worried about leaving marks on the tables. There wasn't any spare loo roll & not enough was left in some bathrooms to get us through our first night!

    • Ms Robinson - Verified booking

      We enjoyed our stay at Cygnet Cottage, it is a perfect location but the cottage is only suitable for people (and their pets) who are fully mobile and able-bodied. The staircase is very steep and not safe for anyone with young children or with mobility issues. One could not safely or easily carry things/children when going downstairs as one needs to hold on to the bannisters at all times. The living room is also somewhat bijou. It is a bit cramped for 4 people. Courtyard garden was nice to sit in for mealtimes.
