Entire home/flat
10 guests
5 bedrooms
6 beds
4 baths
This spacious holiday house is perfect for a relaxed traditional seaside holiday, sitting right on the beach in the picturesque village of Thorpeness on the Suffolk Coast. The large open-plan living space with uninterrupted sea views sits at the heart of this single-storey home, furnished and equipped for socialising with up to ten friends and family with ample space to cook, dine and chill together. All five bedrooms sit at the back of the property and there are two en-suite double bedrooms.

The space

Fairhaven is the perfect holiday home in Thorpeness to visit if you are looking for a seaside holiday. The sea views are absolutely stunning and not many other properties benefit from such an undisturbed view. The location is excellent for exploring both Thorpeness and Aldeburgh. Everything is within walking / cycling distance so you can park up the car and forget about it for the week! We adore this property and are certain it is the perfect place for your next holiday.
The large dining table and horseshoe sitting area provide a perfect setting for extended family gatherings to enjoy the astounding view together at mealtimes.

Hand and bath towels are provided however but bring your own beach towels as white towels and the beach aren't a good combination!

We look forward to welcoming you.

(If you are planning on hosting more than 10 guests in the garden during your stay, please do let us know in advance.)

There is no EV charging point and, for safety reasons, guests are not permitted to charge vehicles at the house. The closest charging point is only a five-minute drive away and conveniently at the Co-Op in Aldeburgh so you can shop whilst charging! IP15 5JD.

Fairhaven does not allow pets and is a no smoking property.

This was hands down the best Airbnb we've ever stayed in — and we've had several great ones before! The property was clean, beautifully furnished, and had everything we needed, but the real highlight was the direct beach access. Everyone in our group loved it and we all agreed it made the trip truly special. Can’t wait to return!

Fantastic location, we loved being able to just walk out to swim each day. House and facilities as described.

Fairhaven was a beautiful property to stay in located next to the beach between Aldeburgh and Thorpeness. We had everything we needed to prepare meals for 8 people. Checking in went smoothly, everything was spotlessly clean and the beds were very comfortable. We wouldn’t hesitate to stay there again. Thank you.

The cottage was right on the beach in such a great location. Easy to park, and walk to both Thorpeness and Aldeburgh. The house was spacious, felt homely and the beds were very comfortable. We will definitely stay again!
