Wonderful stay in this lovely cottage

We had a great bank holiday weekend stay in this lovely, clean and well-located cottage. Helen was a wonderful hostess and communicating with her was very easy because she replied almost instantly to everything. The kids loved the cottage too and keep asking when we can go back. I plan to book it again next year! Thanks @Helen.

Great location and cosy cottage.

Another wonderful stay at the cottage, our third stay here. We counted it was 52 child footsteps to the beach, which is one of the things we love about the cottage. No bumped head this stay on the low ceilings but do feel mattresses could be upgraded as the children’s room beds were a little lumpy. Other than that we would recommend this cottage.

Relaxing stay

We’ve stayed in Aldeburgh many times, this cottage was perfect for us, enough space, clean and a great location. Communicated with the owner a few times, she responded very quickly and was very flexible too. We would recommend.

good accommodation so close to the centre

The owner was very helpful, my friend and I had a wonderful time. I found that some external cleaning needs to be done but otherwise the interior was immaculate. The front gate, which is difficult to open and, due to wet rot, really needs replacing. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and, should the occasion arise, I would be more than happy to return to Charlotte's Cottage

Short break in Aldeburgh

Great property. Very comfortable stay. Fabulous location with everything in walking distance. Visit Two Magpies bakery for breakfast and fish and chip shop just round the corner. Short walk to the Fishers gin distillery for a tour and sampling.

All Fur Coat and No Knickers

Great location. Good bedding. Excellent knives ( very rare). Interesting, good quality art. Loads of hot water. Heating good. The property description was fine but the photos don't show the reality.The property is tired and in need of renovation. There are damp problems, peeling paint, chipped paint, a leaky toilet with sodden floor boards. Loo roll holders that fall off if you breathe heavily. Front door dirty as were some windows - back bedroom in particular.The red settees are greasy with usage. Only one bin when there is a requirement to sort rubbish. No dishwasher tablets. Superficially the house looked clean. Key areas / items had been cleaned but even my husband commented that it was not that clean generally. I cleaned out the bottom of some cupboards before I put items. We had a very good holiday. Aldeburgh and surrounding area very attractive but I would not recommend the property in its current state. Some of the things I have mentioned are easily fixed. Issues like damp are a pain and I guess in a seaside area a perennial problem that can be difficult to fix but it was clear they had been developing for some time. The booking process was very good. I did not respond to some of the pre holidays messages Helen sent as they required a level of skill re technology I have yet to master on our new computer. We did not leave a comment in the visitors book and we do not use Twitter or Facebook etc so we will not be publishing any negative comment just hoping these issues are addressed. Adele Taylor.

Another wonderful stay

Our second stay here and another wonderful stay. A great location and well equipped cottage. We really like that’s it’s a two minute walk to the beach, easy to pop back to get things and use the facilities. The only warning for taller persons are the ceilings are low in places, resulting in a few bumped heads! But it didn’t ruin our stay. A recommended place to stay. We intend to return.

A cosy seaside cottage framed by beautiful hollyhocks, perfect for a family seaside getaway. Set off the Main Street but very near beach, shops and cafes. Fish and chips minutes away!

Fantastic location, lovely cottage

Lovely cottage which is much more spacious than the front photo implies. The location of the cottage - steps from high street and water front is so convenient for a morning stroll along the beach or a quick trip to Aldeburgh Fish n Chips.

We had a week stay over new year here and it was all great. Perfect location, right by the beach but on a quiet road. The kitchen has everything you need, and the house overall was very warm and comfortable. Helen was a very responsive host.

Brilliant location, lovely cottage

We had a very enjoyable stay at the cottage, despite shocking rain on one of the days! My five and two year old daughters throughly enjoyed their stay too. The cottage had everything we needed. The cottage is in a brilliant location to explore Aldeburgh and enjoy this wonderful seaside town. We would highly recommend staying at this cottage.

About the host

Host profile image
My husband and I live in Suffolk with our three children.

Why they chose this property

Aldeburgh has always been a home from home for me, as my parents owned a holiday cottage around the corner from Charlotte's Cottage as far back as the sixties, and all our summers were spent here.

What makes this property unique

The cottage is ideally located for the beach, high street, tennis courts and sailing club which are all within easy walking distance. It's a great place for children and cycling, and with so many good restaurants, pubs and shops in the town there really is no need to get in the car.
