“Perfect house for gatherings!”
House as pictured. Nicely presented. Huge kitchen/diner and large lounge sofa perfect for get-togethers. House is absolutely great for groups of friends or families. All bedrooms are comfy and large. Twin beds are a little on the small side (perfect for youngsters) but arranged together as a double would be fine. All bathrooms are modern and large with plenty of hot water. Two bathrooms had both baths and separate showers. One en-suite had a large shower. 4 WC’s are in the house. Had a few issues with the heating but just one phone call and maintenance turned up within 5 mins. Location is perfect in Thorpeness being 2 mins walk to The Dolphin (worth a visit), Lake and Golf Course. Seafront is a 5 minute stroll. You could walk to Aldeburgh along the coastal path. I would definitely recommend this property. We all had a great time.
