Guest reviews:
"Our 4th visit and I don't want to go home! We love Runton - spectacular location and all the comfort we wang for our holiday. We'll book again. Visited our usual places - Snape, Thorpeness, etc. but also made a visit to Buxlow Blooms for some PYO flowers."
"We've had a fantastic weekend here. Having stayed in Aldeburgh many times, this is one of the best properties we have stayed in. Beautiful apartment, well equipped kitchen."


Runton occupies two floors of a three-storey Edwardian house which sits in an enviable position on the sea front between Crag Path and Crabbe Street. The door from Crabbe Street opens exclusively to the apartment where you'll find space for footwear and coats before ascending the steep stairs (with rope rails to assist you) to the first-floor landing giving access to the elegant open-plan living/kitchen/dining room. Stylish wooden flooring runs through most of the first floor with carpets on the stairs and in all bedrooms.

The kitchen has units running round three walls, housing a waist height double oven, a built -n microwave, a dishwasher, fridge/freezer (6 shelves in the fridge and a veg drawer, and 2.5 drawers in the freezer), a Roberts Radio, a Nespresso machine which takes standard sized pods, a kettle, and a toaster.
