Nice place to stay and very good location! Small bedroom with bunk bed is accessed via one of the other bedrooms which is fine for some families but not all I would imagine. Nice property for young families.
Charlotte was an absolutely fantastic host, fantastic communication at all the right times. The property is brilliantly located and really well equipped! We really enjoyed our stay here and would highly recommend.
A really wonderful time away spent with family in a beautiful cottage. The host was excellent at providing information. Perfectly situated to local amenities and wonderful beach. Would love to visit again next year.
Excellent accommodation in the heart of Southwold! Beach/town all within a short walk. The Cottage was fully equipped with everything you would need for a comfortable stay.

Hi, my name is Charlotte and I absolutely love Southwold. I like nothing better than walking along the beach with a coffee from Suzie's and my kids on their scooters - even on a cold wet morning!
Why they chose this property
Hope Cottage was the perfect property for my family - right in the heart of Southwold, moments from the beach and opposite the playground for the kids. We bought it in late 2020 and renovated it during the Covid lockdown and are now so happy to have it available for rental.
What makes this property unique
Located opposite St Edmunds Church and Bartholomew Green, Hope Cottage is in the heart of Southwold. Although in a lovely quiet spot it's only a minute from the bustling High Street with its boutique shops, pubs, restaurants and art galleries.
It's the perfect place from which to explore Southwold and the surrounding area on foot. You are 2 minutes walk from the Seafront, close to Southwold pier and for families 100m from Southwold's playground.
