Customer Reviews
exactly what we needed. A great little cottage for a weekend away.
Jane – May 2025
Great place it had everything we needed and it’s location was fantastic.
Diana – May 2024
Nice cottage in a great location. Only a couple of minute walk to the centre of town and 30 seconds to the beach. Good for a couple or young family as stairs are steep and tight. Cottage was clean and tidy and all in good condition. Balcony was a nice added touch. Note for those with dogs, there is no secured outside space so you will need to take your dog out on a lead to go to the toilet. We managed to park on the street for free almost outside the cottage. There is a large car park a short walk away if not but you need to pay.

Cute cottage ,perfect location had everything we needed would definitely recommend
Samantha – March 2023
We love Aldeburgh. We come as often as we can. We will definitely book Drift In again if we are lucky enough for it to be free. Great location and everything you need in this gorgeous cottage.
Donna – November 2022
Really charming, comfortable little cottage with everything you need. Very clean and well laid out with lots of thoughtful touches. The hidden balcony was also a great surprise! Would definitely come back.
Katherine – November 2022
Lovely spacious cottage with balcony and mod cons in a great location at one end of the High Street and a few minutes walk from the sea. No dedicated car parking space but parking was available either just outside the cottage or close nearby. Aldeburgh is a gem of a place with old cottages, plenty of good pubs and restaurants, an amazing shack on the beach selling loads of varieties of smoked fish which is close to several fishmonger shacks and a vast pebble beach.

A great location, so close to town and with easy parking outside/near to cottage. Well equipped and nice and cosy and warm for winter stays.
Nicola – November 2021
Lovely cottage in a great location – close to beach and high street. Well stocked kitchen, everything you could need…. Even a slow cooker which is handy for a winter break! Very comfy beds with good quality linen and towels. Loads of brilliant cafes and restaurants on the high street all just a short walk away. Highly recommended!

Lovely, snug house, very well located for the beach, High St and all that Aldeburgh has to offer. House is in a quiet location. 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms and a nice upstairs patio. Well equipped kitchen. We really enjoyed our stay. Thank you.
Matthew – August 2021
This is a lovely, spacious and light house with a great garden and in a great location. Absolute gem of a house.
Julia – July 2021
Sweet cottage in a good location very close to all the shops and restaurants. Also some lovely walks very nearby. Stairs are narrow but this was not a problem for us. A luxury to have two bathrooms in such a small place.

Well located clean and stylish
Stephen King – October 2020
Drift Inn is a fantastic little cottage space for 5-6 people comfortable.. The location is fantastic. This property has a little roof terrace which is nice to sit and watch the stars have a little outdoor space. The sea was a stone throw away across the road.
Chris A – September 2020
A lovely cosy cottage with a bright and sunny terrace for outdoor eating, watching stars and chilling out.
Sally Fiske – August 2020
The cottage was excellent great location 2 minutes from the beach, everything we needed for a great holiday, Fish and chips were great, hopefully we will stop there again.
Jean B – August 2020
A lovely cottage in a great location at the quiet end of Aldeburgh High Street. It was perfect for our family of five. We particularly loved a drink on the little balcony whilst the kids watched a movie. The manager was very helpful and swift to respond when we had an issue (a leak following heavy rain ). The maintenance team arrived within the hour and sorted the issue. A delightful stay. Thank you.
Jenny Gillespie – August 2020
Great location. We had a lovely time thank you.
Jenny Dowsett – February 2020
The cottage is cosy and sleeps 5 adults comfortably. You have to be careful coming down stairs as they are very narrow and small at the bottom, going up is not easy with luggage so you should allow for this when booking. The location is great for access for everything in Aldeburgh. It is also lovely and quiet low season.
Lorraine – November 2019
‘Excellent customer service’
Very professional, and helpful staff. It was so easy to book and pay. Arrival instructions simple and worked very well. Such a lovely cottage, with everything you could possibly need. Well maintained too.
