Lovely stay in a lovely place. The accommodation was clean and comfortable with anything we needed for the day brought to us quickly. Ideally situated in Southwold to everything there and local restaurants are really good.

Really well-positioned apartment in Southwold, just steps away from the Market Square. Very well-appointed with a comfortable sitting area, nice bedroom and excellent shower.

Stunning accommodation - couldn’t fault it. Squeaky clean, comfortable, everything top quality, and welcoming. Perfect location for centre of town, yet unbelievably peaceful and quiet. The hosts ‘Stay in Suffolk’ were fantastic - we popped into their office down the high street to say hello and they were so friendly and professional - a real pleasure to deal with. I’d definitely book through them again, and we would very happily stay at The Vault again next time we are visiting lovely Southwold.

Great little place in a perfect location. Spotlessly clean and no clutter which was great. Would be very happy to stay again. It might be more flexible if it was twin beds, or had a sofa bed as I was there with a friend, but we still had a great time. Thank you!

Very good location and spotless inside. Nutri bullet and toaster nice additions too. Car park at the bottom of the lane is free and nearby. Opposite end of the lane is the high street so an ideal location.
