It is a glorious location in the middle of the park and conveniently close to Southwold and other places of special interest. The room we stayed in (Southwold) was spacious and full of character with its over-arching beams. It was also well equipped with generous storage space and excellent plumbing. Full marks for the informative folder!

What guests said about Southwold:

A delightful, unspoilt seaside town.
A delightful, unspoilt seaside town. Beautiful beaches, colourful beach huts, old fashioned pier, lighthouse, good High Street. Attractive traditional houses and open green areas. Footpaths across the common down to the river estuary where you can take the short ferry trip across to the village of Walberswick or look at the boats. Excellent fresh fish and chips here or up in the town!Waite - 10Scored 10

We liked the individuality of Southwold and in particular its art galleries where there is a lot of art work of quality and reasonably priced. The quirky pier is appealing (despite the fact that the splendid water-clock is currently out of order) and the sandy beach is a joy to walk along. Out Saturday night meal at Coasters was one of the highlights of our stay with great food and service. A bonus we appreciated was the fact that parking was free in the car park near the town centre, an absolute rarity for contemporary England!RobertUnited Kingdom - 10Scored 10

Beautiful weekend spent enjoying the brewery tour, eating in the swan hotel, a walk along the pier and beach path. There are some very good artisan bakerys, and 2 wonderful fish and chip shops. Wished we would have had the time to visit the lighthouse.suzanneUnited Kingdom - 10Scored 10
Lovely sandy beach with a long promenade.
Lovely sandy beach with a long promenade. Pier had two cafes and a couple of nice gift shops. Town center had a good selection of shops and was clean and tidy. There was a very nice putting green with a small cafe. Liked it so much we are returning later this year

We had never been to Southwold before.
We had never been to Southwold before. We stayed in the area because we were attending a wedding at Henham Park. What a delightful surprise! From the beach and colourful beach huts, to the lovely independent shops and plenty of cafes, pubs and restaurants it had the unspoilt charm of times gone by. We especially enjoyed the harbour area and were only sorry that we were just there for a long weekend . We’ll definitely come back and explore more.Salter - 10Scored 10

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!PamUnited Kingdom

- From € 388.28 per night9.0Scored 9.0SuperbRated superb· 948 reviewsEverything was absolutely stunning, right down to the choice of tea bags in the room! The room was enormous and had wonderful views of the sea and the brewery. The window seat was my favourite spot to relax and watch the world go by. Location was spot on; right in the centre of town but also so quiet at night. The bed was simply the best hotel bed we've ever slept in. We slept like logs both nights. Staff were attentive and the hotel bar (The Taproom) was a lovely spot for a cheeky tipple as we digested the day.
LyndseyUnited Kingdom - 8.5Scored 8.5Very goodRated very good· 867 reviewsThere was so much to like about this hotel: the staff were great especially Bradley who welcomed us; the food which was excellent (I particularly liked the local kippers for breakfast); the room - we stayed in the Churchill Suite which was perfect and very relaxing and comfortable. But what I liked most was the small touches like the home made tartare sauce and the home made jam and marmalade which all tasted superb. We also liked the fact that locals use the place unlike in central Southwold
RogerUnited Kingdom - 9.3Scored 9.3SuperbRated superb· 71 reviewsWe 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.
HelenUnited Kingdom - 8.5Scored 8.5Very goodRated very good· 867 reviewsThe location was ideal with just a 25 minute walk into Southwold. A very quiet area. The newly finished patio area is excellent. Overall decoration and presentation of Hotel was also excellent. Friendly staff. Breakfasts were brilliant and the two evening meals we had were lovely. Local buses to nearby towns within easy walking distance. We were in a Fire Exit room and we initially had a problem opening the Fire Exit door but this was soon sorted out by the staff.
TrevorUnited Kingdom - 9.3Scored 9.3SuperbRated superb· 110 reviewsThe 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.
TobyUnited Kingdom - 8.3Scored 8.3Very goodRated very good· 18 reviewsNice house felt very peaceful and spacious for just the two of us. Shower broke while we were there and was replaced/fixed the same day which was great. Nice 20ish mins walk into Southwold kept us away from the maddening crowd! Garden was lovely (although it rained nearly every day we were there unfortunately). Everything that was needed was there with a few exceptions (see below)PaulUnited Kingdom
- 10Scored 10ExceptionalRated exceptional· 4 reviewsA fantastic cottage in the heart of Southwold with private parking. The owners had thought of everything to make it a home from home. It was spotlessly clean with gorgeous welcome gifts for us and our dog. Ideally situated for the beach and town and communication from the owner was amazing, with lots of information about cafes, dog friendly places to eat and places of interest.

Won't be important to many people but the music in the dining room was excellent. Can't remember hearing Beach Fossils anywhere I've stayed before. Kudos for the sounds.
