About this property
Lighthouse View Cottage
Lighthouse View in Southwold is a comfortable and welcoming holiday cottage sleeping four people in two bedrooms. This early-Victorian cottage is by St.James' Green in the very heart of this attractive coastal town. From the front door it is just yards to the promenade and sea.
Not only does Lighthouse View offer an excellent holiday location but Southwold's landmark lighthouse stands just over the wall of the cottage's rear courtyard. The fully-operational lighthouse is accessed from nearby Stradbroke Road and is open on certain dates for visitors to climb up to the top to enjoy the wonderful views. Children (and perhaps adults) will be captivated by the gentle rotation of the lights from the lighthouse in the evening.
Car parking is freely available in the immediate area. Indeed you may park your car on arrival and not use it again throughout your stay.
Owners Russ and Sue are happy to share their delightful cottage with holidaymakers who would love to experience this wonderful location in the charming town of Southwold. Children over 4 years are welcome as is one well-behaved dog.
For the young and the young at heart this super seaside cottage has so much to offer.

About the host

Owners Russ and Sue are pleased to share their delightful cottage with holidaymakers who would love to experience this wonderful location in the charming town of Southwold. Children over 4 years are welcome as is one well-behaved dog.
Why they chose this property
After much dreaming of owning a holiday home by the sea we finally made our dream a reality when we bought Lighthouse View in October 2013!
Our whole family fell in love with the property as soon as we set foot in it - it just felt right! Our children were also mesmerised by the views of the iconic lighthouse from the rear bedroom which they have claimed!

What makes this property unique
Lighthouse View is ideally located close to the beach with it's famous coloured beach huts being a stones throw away, our favourite pub - The Sole Bay Inn being a few doors away and the town being a mere two to three minute walk away.
Not only does Lighthouse View offer an excellent holiday location but Southwold's landmark lighthouse stands just over the wall of the cottage's rear courtyard. The fully-operational lighthouse is accessed from nearby Stradbroke Road and is open on certain dates for visitors to climb up to the top to enjoy the wonderful views. Children (and the young at heart) will be captivated by the gentle rotation of the lights from the lighthouse in the evening.
