3 Old Homes, Thorpeness near Aldeburgh, Suffolk 
Sleeps 4 - 6
This pretty, deceptively large, Suffolk holiday cottage is tucked away 20 yards from the beach in Thorpeness. Thorpeness is one of Suffolk’s coastal gems, with a popular pub, a very popular country club, a prestigious golf club, lakeside tea rooms, the “Meare” (a famous 60 acre boating lake themed around JM Barrie’s Peter Pan) and is just under 2 miles along the beach from Aldeburgh.

The whole cottage is decorated in elegant Farrow & Ball neutral colours. On the ground floor there’s a large open plan living/dining room with an open fire, a full kitchen and cloakroom/utility room. Upstairs there are three bedrooms (2 doubles and 1 twin bedroom).  Outside there's an Indian Sand Stone patio and a lawn.

Sleeps 2
Relax and unwind in this gorgeous holiday cottage for two. It's a stylish and very spacious retreat in the heart of the Suffolk countryside, just a short drive to the Heritage Coast.
