Customer Reviews

Great cottage with loads of space. Well stocked kitchen with everything we needed. 45 mins ish walk to Aldeburgh. Dolphin pub in Thorpeness is really nice and good roast on the Sunday.
Steve – Mar 2025

We have never been to Thorpeness before, so we didn’t know what to expect. The house was stunning, old, cosy, and homely. It had games, films, books, kitchen utensils and lots of furniture. The house was 5 minutes from The Meare and the beach and a 45-minute walk across the beach to Aldeburgh. We will so be coming back to stay. Thank you.
Karen – Jan 2024

Wonderful property, great location managed really well by Aldeburgh Coastal properties. Thank you
John – August 2022

Wonderful place very near the tennis club and beach. Would highly recommend
Kathryn – July 2022

Lovely, spacious house which we found to be ideal for a week-long family holiday ranging from grandparents to one-year old baby. Thorpeness and area are lovely.
Harry – June 2022

Such a lovely house in a wonderful location. Different places around the house and the garden offered our families the chance to sit quietly or get together. Would highly recommend
Bill – June 2022

Well kept 4 bedroom house in Thorpeness. Easily accommodated 7 adults a 1 year old and a dog . Near to the beach and set amongst the original holiday village.
Rob – October 2021

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The location was perfect, close to the pub and the beach. The rooms were clean and comfortable. Communication was also great. Would definitely recommend!
Polly – October 2021

We stayed for our annual group holiday and had a lovely time at this place which was clean and communication was great. Thorpeness itself is lovely – had a great long lunch in the Dolphin around the corner – and provided great base for walking along the coast and exploring other parts of the Suffolk coast.
Deri, London – September 2021

Fantastic location and beautiful accommodation. If you want to have a break away from it all, but have fabulous restaurants and food in walking distance, this is the place for you.
Lorraine Goldsmith – November 2020

Beautiful, peaceful and spacious house in a fantastic location with a lovely homely atmosphere. Beds and sofas super clean and comfortable. Thorpeness is a great place to stay. We loved the beach and Meare, the Dolphin pub, mini golf – and so many things to do in the area. Communication was fast and efficient, easy check-in. Really enjoyed a much needed, fun family week away.
Ann Perrins – October 2020
