Customer Reviews
White Cottage is beautifully appointed, in the enchanting village of Iken, close to the magnificent Alde estuary. The cottage has been superbly extended and has huge character. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay there for a week and have returned home fully rested. We would love to return to this splendid property. Thank you, Aldeburgh Coastal Cottages!
Robert – Aug 2026
White Cottage is a fabulous home from home – incredible surroundings, very private with wonderful countryside views, and the house itself had everything we needed. The kitchen is a real showstopper, with the full width patio doors overlooking that view – and the outside space lets you enjoy the beautiful scenery. It’s very remote – which suited us, and the bedrooms were very small – which again was fine or a short stay and in keeping with the age of the house. Trips to Aldeburgh for smoked fish, Orford for crabbing and Snape Maltings for lunch highly recommended!
