    We had extra help from Aldeburgh Seaside Cottages, when heath fire in the village started. We were moved to another cottage overnight for our safety. All done proactively and very efficiently.

    A quaint Suffolk cottage and garden in a quiet location, providing an ideal base to explore the nearby coast. Just hope that Sizewell C does not proceed, as will blight the whole area north of Leiston.
