2 bed dog-friendly cottage minutes from the beach

Lavender Cottage is a newly renovated 2-bed bolthole, minutes from Aldeburgh & Thorpeness coast. It is a charming new-to-market holiday home that has been completely renovated whilst retaining its rustic cottage charm. As you turn into Post Office Road, you are met with a little row of quaint cottages facing the village green, with parking, pretty gardens and a pleasant outlook.

It has much to offer: two bedrooms, an enclosed, secure back garden, a country-style kitchen and bathroom, and beautiful designer decor. You enter the house via the lounge area, which is light and bright, full of charm, and with stairs leading off. A nautical coastal charm throughout, with added touches such as rope handles, brass fittings and country green decor. The kitchen is newly installed in a coastal blue, with tiled flooring, plenty of cupboard and counter work space, a large aspect window overlooking the garden and patio area, and access to the family bathroom. The Dining area features a wooden table and chairs for four people. The family bathroom features a large walk-in shower, bath with shower-over, basin and WC. The master bedroom has a double bed, stunning bespoke wallpaper and matching linens, a wooden unit and a hanging space. The second is a small double room with hanging space, bedside tables and a seaside theme, again with bespoke blinds and decor. There is a small, newly laid patio and garden area, with an outdoor dining set offering complete privacy and security for dogs and kids. Ambient lighting, railway sleepers, and shrubs all add to the pleasantness of the little sun trap retreat. There is also a small courtyard garden with a bistro garden set. It is another area to watch the world go by and listen to nothing but birds tweeting in the trees above.

10/10 Excellent

A week in Suffolk
We booked Lavender cottage as a last minute break, that's two humans and a dog. Lavender cottage met all of our expectations. The cottage was clean, comfortable and cosy and a few welcome essentials were provided for both humans and for the dog. Apart from a bit of rain we had a very enjoyable stay and would not hesitate to book this cottage again if we decide to stay in the same area.

Lovely cottage in the middle if nowhere
The cottage is lovely, refurbished to an excellent standard, and if you are looking for some quiet between the country and the coast, this is just the right thing. Please note that there is no washing machine on the property. We were booked for five nights and asked for a mid-term clean, which wasn't possible, and we also didn't get any fresh towels for five days which I think is a bit sickening. Everything was perfect except for the communication with east-coast hideaways, which made me feel that my request for a cleaning and fresh towels was entirely unreasonable. I would no longer book with this agency, although I would book the cottage again if it were with someone else. Very cute little place.
