Fishermans Cottage Southwold, Southwold

Fishermans Cottage is a traditional property in Southwold, Suffolk that sleeps eight guests. Less than 100 metres from both the beach and town centre, this surprisingly spacious cottage works brilliantly for two families. The enclosed private courtyard gives children a safe space to play whilst adults relax with a coffee from the Nespresso machine.

Southwold sits on the Suffolk coast. The town has shifted from a working fishing village into a popular weekend destination. You can walk to the lighthouse, RNLI boat station and harbour in minutes.

The cottage has four bedrooms sleeping eight people. The main king-size bedroom includes an en-suite shower room and armchair. A second king-size bedroom also has an armchair. There's a twin room plus a snug lounge with sofa bed. The main bathroom has a shower over the bath. The dining room features a light-wood table seating eight and a wood burner. The modern fitted kitchen has a Rangemaster cooker with two electric ovens and a five-ring gas hob.

Southwold Museum (0.2 miles, 2 minutes) tells the town's story. Walberswick Beach (1.2 miles, 5 minutes) offers more coastal walks. RSPB Minsmere (8 miles, 18 minutes) attracts birdwatchers. Dunwich Heath (6 miles, 15 minutes) provides heathland walks with sea views.

Fishermans Cottage suits families wanting a proper seaside break. Two families can share the space comfortably. The location means you can leave the car and explore on foot.
