⸻ We recently stayed at the Red House in Leiston. The location is really great — close to grocery stores, local attractions, EV charging points, and we found Sizewell beach to be an absolute gem. That said, the house itself wasn’t really set up for people wanting to cook for themselves. The kitchen was missing some basics, which made it a bit tricky. There were also a few little things that could have made the stay easier — one bedroom didn’t have a working light bulb, there was no dustpan and brush, and the vacuum cleaner wasn’t working. Overall, the area and convenience were big positives, but the house would really benefit from being better equipped for guests.

Overall we had a good stay at the Red House. The house is in a very quiet area and just five mins away from Sizewell beach which was a nice place to walk the dogs each day.

We stayed here as a family to celebrate my dad’s birthday. Town is cute with pubs and shops within walking distance. Also perfect location for days out. House was comfortable enough with 3 double bedrooms and 1 with 2 singles. There is only one bathroom though. Living room was slightly small considering the house sleeps 8, but there were only 4 of us so worked out ok. We took our dog who was right at home, massive enclosed garden too.
