OUTSIDE
Chestnutt Cottage is located on Halesworth Road, within walking distance to Southwold town centre and you have off road parking so you can avoid all the hassle of parking in town which can be difficult in the summer months! There's a full enclosed rear garden, mostly laid to lawn with a patio area to sit out and enjoy a good book or a meal al-fresco, and a small front garden setting the house back from the road.

The house was really homely, although it is quite basic the beds were very comfy and it had everything we needed. We loved walking in to Southwold each day and it was a great location for exploring the Suffolk Coast.

This was in a great location for access to Southwold and the beaches. The house was perfect for us in size and has everything you need as a base for a beach holiday. The only downside was the traffic noise from the road to the front, this was very busy up until late at night.

We had a nice stay in this small cottage. Great location with good access to Southwold. There were a few issues with the downstairs toilet and fridge when we arrived. But they were sorted out, ideally they could have been addressed a bit quicker though. The place has all that you need but appliances and technology are a little dated.

Logement très agréable, très lumineux, dans un environnement calme avec des départs pour de nombreuses balades à proximité. Un bonheur ! Stay in Suffolk s’est montré très serviable et réactif.
