Customer Reviews

A lovely local town cottage! We were here for Latitude Festival and the place was great; I didn’t know we had such a nice place to lay our heads. We enjoyed our stay so much we had hoped we could extend our stay, but there was no availability which is no surprise! Scotland to Suffolk – girls on tour!
Tim – July 2023

Great little cottage. Clean & tidy. Quiet location. Close to coastal villages, pubs and loads of walks. Plenty to see and do in beautiful Suffolk.
Joy – June 2023

Lovely, tidy and clean, well-presented cottage in an excellent location. Excellent and well equipped kitchen, loved the log burner and the bed was extremely comfortable too. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and would definitely book again.
Tony – December 2021

Gorgeous cottage close to Aldeburgh, Thorpeness and Southwold – fabulous walks. Cosy and comfy – would definitely go back. Very cosy and comfy. Thankyou for a lovely stay x
Zoe – October 2021

It is a lovely cottage, which feels very comfortable.
Jeni – October 2021

Great cottage – with good facilities and excellent location for exploring local area. Steep stairs so maybe tricky for some and precarious for toddlers Would definitely use again!
Carmella – July 2021

Very responsive and helpful host. A small but beautiful cottage, conveniently located for Snape and the seaside, and a short walk to the fabulous pub in Aldringham. Knodishall has a well stocked village shop and a farm shop, and several great areas for dog-walking.
Anne – June 2021

Very nice property. Lovely clean compact property in the heart of Aldeburgh. And it has parking which is a real positive. Would re-book
Mark, Ashford – December 2020

Thimble Cottage is really well situated for visiting the Suffolk Coast and surrounding areas. Aldeburgh, Thorpeness, Minsmere, Dunwich and Southwold all being in easy reach It is beautifully quiet but has a pub and handy local shop within a stones throw! The cottage is well furnished and extremely comfortable, the garden is small but secure – perfect for our dog. Good kitchen and bathroom, everything you need. Great to have a wood burner to settle down in front of after a day out walking. The beautiful fireplace is a real feature of the cottage. Thimble Cottage is perfect for a couple looking for a character property for a short break/week on the Suffolk Coast
Amanda T – December 2020

The cottage is a brilliant base to explore the Suffolk coast and we had a super week. The cottage is well appointed and high quality and has everything you need. It’s nicely decorated and the kitchen is well laid out and attractive. Upstairs is very comfortable and well decorated. Overall – very good indeed.
Susan, Andover – August 2020

Very clean and well presented property with lots of original features. Beautiful little cottage.
Sharon Butters – July 2020

Cute, cosy, comfortable cottage in a brilliantly central location. Easy to get to all the good stuff in Suffolk from here.
Tamsin Henderson – January 2020

Lovely clean cosy cottage, would definitely go again.
