Friendly welcome, help given with a heavy case.
Room ok, bed seemed new, and was big. Decor was a bit tired in places.

The way it was no trouble at all to provide me with gluten/dairy products for breakfast, which we thoroughly enjoyed. Was greeted warmly and the accommodation was lovely, it certainly was a treat for my birthday.

Nothing. Hugely disappointed at the pokiness of the place. It was dark, 2 half sofas covered in plastic. Bedrooms not big enough to swing a cat. Decided we couldn’t possibly stay there. Found last available room at the crown thank god. Without doubt the worst place I have ever stayed in .

Although Southwold is best seen on a warm, sunny, wind-free day, we enjoyed our trip at the end of April, despite the cold wind! We walked to Walberswick and back along the paths available, stopping at a lovely café there before continuing the walk. We crossed the river via the ferry (£2.00 each) which saved us from a longer trip. There is a good, sandy beach with dunes if warm, & a pier selling drinks & lunch at the far end of the town. Opposite the pier is a small Putting Green & café. We stayed at The Crown which was central to the various quality shops, a lovely bakery & the Adnams brewery/shop. There is a range of pubs to suit all tastes & several teashops to choose from. Car parking is at each end of the town, but if hills are a problem, I would suggest parking at the top car park rather than at the pier end. There is also a lighthouse in the centre of town which offers tours. All in all, a good day out!

A real seaside gem.
A real seaside gem. Plenty of pubs (but they do get busy in the season) shops and a long beach with a pier. The afternoon tea at the Swan I would declare the best I've ever had. The adnams brewery and distillary tours are worth doing if of interest. A place of charm, pleasent walks, slowly drunk coffees and letting the world slow down a bit.

We were out of season and some cafes closed at 3pm which we weren’t expecting but several restaurants, pubs and cafes in the town centre.
The pier arcade was open and you could have a tour of the lighthouse plus the brewery.
We walked to Walberswick (no ferry available until April) and some nice cafes there too!
Lovely sandy beach and lots of nice fish dishes to eat along with many different Adnams beverages!

It was a great place to visit.
It was a great place to visit. Southwold in it self is quite small. There were a number of different jobs and local landmarks to visit which we enjoyed. Car parking prices were reasonable. Despite some places were closed, we still made the most of it and enjoyed our visit. There were definitely sufficient food places to choose from which were quite happy with. The shops were varied between local shops and bigger branded shops. The landmarks we visited were good too. You could probably see most of Southwold within a day. If everything was open and it was in the summer time, you would probably need more than a day to visit every inch of Southwold.

Never stayed in the Blyth Hotel before so was pleased to find it was dog friendly. The breakfast was good, the fish pie was lovely and it felt very relaxed and informal. Room felt uncluttered but warm and cosy,
We usually stay in The Swan but they don't take dogs. Also the reception staff were unhelpful when trying to book afternoon tea for one of our days, saying the kitchen would be closed. Walking past the kitchen looked pretty much open judging by the number of people that were in there. Make your own conclusions on that one but I doubt they will have much of our custom in the future.
Also try the Sole Bay Inn, dog friendly and good beer and food - you can't book in advance for grub. Bear in mind this is Feb so the Pier was completely closed until the season opens.

Southwold is lovely and picturesque, atmosphere is like going back in time. All the shops and staff were friendly, welcoming and helpful. We stayed and ate in the crown, highly recommended. We also ate at Coasters which again was perfect and highly recommended. You can walk around Southwold, no need for transport. Lovely, welcoming town with plenty to do in the winter months. The beach walk we took was peaceful and relaxing. We felt completely relaxed and rejuvenated upon our return home. Advice is to book your evening meals before you arrive, we witnessed many people not being able to book tables obviously because everyone wants to eat in the lovely hotels and restaurants, there is also a lovely fish and chip shop who cook to order should you not be able to book a table so no one goes hungry. Lunchtime is an ideal time to visit the many bakers to have a cuppa and lovely fresh snacks. The Sailors library is a must visit
We stayed in squirrel. Lovely accommodation, small kitchen and sitting area and bathroom downstairs then lovely bedroom upstairs. Our daughter stayed on camp bed. Small seating area outside, has beautiful gardens surrounding. Great breakfast one morning (extra). Everything was very good, very welcoming, great advice on places to go. Really good location, short drive into Southwold but good spot for travelling further down coast - we also visited Aldeburgh, Orford and Snape.
The upstairs flat is perfect for a person travelling on their own: it is compact but wonderfully furnished, plenty enough for one but doesn't feel cramped or small. Kitchen is well equipped, bedroom is lovely. The flat is lovely and light and does not feel claustrophobic. It is located right in the centre of Southwold, above a shop but there's no disturbances from this, and with the flat at the back of the building, there's no street noise either.
The hotel was in a great location in Southwold which is a lovely, unspoilt coastal Suffolk town. The staff were really friendly, chatty and helpful. Apart from the first evening where we enjoyed a delicious Sunday roast, we ate out to enjoy other pubs and restaurants in Southwold, but the breakfasts were excellent.
Beautiful room with top quality finish and furnishings. Lovely extra touches, with good selection of teas and coffee. Comfy bed and bed sheets. Great location for exploring Southwold and the beach. Lovely 10 minute stroll into the town, either by road or by beach. Similar distance to the harbour.
A unique experience.
Huge (and I mean really big) room with comfy beds and luxurious bedding.
Very nice helpful staff.
Fabulous breakfast.
Interesting building - rustic luxury.
Good spot for exploring Suffolk coast by car or bike.
Our King room was very spacious light and airy.
We loved the large window, modern furnishings and bathroom which had a shower cubicle and bath.
The hotel had large grounds and was walking distance to Southwold.
Breakfast, welcome, room & dinner were all excellent - location is terrific and the whole atmosphere around the Crown Hotel is superb. This was our 2nd stay and I could imagine we will keep on coming back.
The two sisters who own the hotel were so welcoming and the location was just a short walk from the centre of Southwold. Ideal base to visit the Adnams Distillery and Brewery. Free parking was a bonus.
Property mostly in good condition and room is spacious.
The hotel is mostly modernised and looks good.
Excellent position for the sea. A little too far to walk with a young family.
Breakfast was good
Lovely little cottage just off the Main Street in Southwold. Brilliant location near the beach and the town. Has a lovely cosy feel. Small but perfect for 2 adults, 2 kids and our lab!
Beautifully presented cottage just a 5 minute walk from Southwold town centre
The property had all the amenities you could need and all the kitchen appliances were of a high standard
Everything had been thought of for a wonderful stay at this dog friendly cottage. Warm and comfortable with a great shower and secure garden. Really enjoyed our stay.
Beautifully converted room. With beautiful en suite with bath and shower. Plenty of wood beams, very atmospheric.
Easy to get to Wangford or Southwold for dinner.
Great breakfast and v civilised time 9:30 to 11:00 Great location right on the beach 5 minute walk to Southwold 10-15 minutes to old harbour and Walberswick ferry
