Butler sink in games room very dirty.A shower in ensuite bedroom or a second shower would have been helpful for a 4 bedroom property.Summer house padlocked and did not have instructions to find key,Garden cushions were in there,

Great house, lots of room and the garden was great for the kids. Easy and quick to get to the beach, we all had a great long weekend.

Some areas downstairs need some TLC and the mattresses could do with replacing soon

This house has amazing potential. It’s HUGE!! The kids had a choice of rooms, there are 2 main living areas, lots of games to choose from. We mainly stayed in the back living area off the kitchen as was the comfy room with views of the garden. And the garden!!! Wow, amazing. And with views of the beach huts lining the beach! It really is an amazing house. I had to contact the owners directly to ask about EV charging for our car, they were lovely, very friendly and responsive. I have no issues whatsoever with the owners, nor the house, but it’s the management company who unfortunately let this place down. So onto the negative, and the reason I would not come back to this house…..

The cleanliness was unacceptable. I’m one of those people who takes cleaning wipes on holiday with me and will always wipe down the toilets. However i was not expecting the level of cleaning required, it was shocking how the toilets were left. I started on the downstairs toilet, this wasn’t really too bad, just some general staining and marks under the water line, acceptable. Then I moved to the main bathroom toilet. There was brown staining all round the pan and around/under the water line with flecks of brown all over the toilet bowl, like someone had just poured some bleach down maybe but not actually scrubbed it? But under the toilet seat, I couldn’t believe it; think yellow areas which were obviously wee staining but hadn’t been cleaned in a long time. I used my detergent wipes and managed to clean the under side of the seat. Then started on the area around the hinges of the seat. I hoped it was rust I was bringing out, it wasn’t. I was clearly removing long term lumps of poo which had been collecting under there and not been cleaned for some time. Considering I hadn’t come prepared to be fully cleaning a toilet (so no gloves etc), it was a challenging task. After some scrubbing the toilet was fully clean, everything came off so it’s not as if it was long term staining. I moved onto the en-suite. On lifting the lid I was faced with a toilet which hadn’t even been cleaned. It had poo all round the toilet bowl, above the water line, just untouched. This was too much, I wasn’t prepared to clean this. I called the management company who did send a cleaner round straight away, he was there within 20 mins which was great for a Sunday. On arriving he did try to argue with me that they take pictures of the toilets after they clean to prove they’re clean. I just asked him to come with me and showed him the en suite toilet. He didn’t say another word, but did take a picture of it himself. Unacceptable and the reason I would not, unfortunately, return to this house.

Spacious house with eclectic mix of furniture. We'll equipped kitchen with plenty of crockery and cutlery. Large garden with nice outdoor furniture overlooking fields. Central location 10 mins from town and beach.

Could have been cleaner, lots of cobwebs and hardwood floors vacuumed but not washed! Garden could have been really lovely if it had been better maintained.

It was an ideal dwelling for a family of 8 including 2 lively 5/8 year olds. The garden was great and the safe footpath direct to the beach front at Southwold was brilliant. The local shop 5 minutes away was handy for all essentials when needed.

We had no complaints and were sad to leave it. We would consider booking it again.
