    The dog was underwhelmed at the small garden.

    The location was great close to the beach, dog walks and town.

    There were ants in the kitchen and bathroom. The cafetière didn’t work effectively.

    Traditional cottage, attractive furnishing and it was well heated and cosy. Comfortable beds. Aldeburgh is a delightful small seaside town with lots of good shops, cafes and restaurants. A high end hotel/restaurant was close by which was helpful as I was with my sister who has mobility problems.

    Didn’t need the outside patio as weather not suitable but this area needs some attention. We could find no instruction leaflets for appliances.

    Very comfortable. Clean, well-maintained and beautifully decorated. Quiet location and parking straight outside.

    Advertised as having iron and hairdryer. These were not present. Courtyard garden VERY small. Dachshund could hardly turn around in! Stairs very steep to bedrooms. Not too good for elderly or slightly immobile people.

    Fabulous location. Lovely cosy house. Clean and tidy with virtually all requirements for a weekend stay.

    A microwave oven would have been useful for quick meals. The bath needed a grab rail and a non-slip mat as it became very slippery when using the shower.

    The location was an ideal base for exploring the interesting town and nearby coastal areas. Well appointed kitchen and a good shower

    More information on how to use the appliances or where they could be found. As pensioners the stairs were a bit of a nightmare and we did remove the rugs for the duration of our stay, we considered them a trip hazard.

    It was self catering, but no welcome pack. The cottage was clean and very well presented. If we were younger we would have loved it.

    a few board games would have been an added bonus

    the property was comfortable and light - perfect for a 3 night stay - just back from the beach and a short walk along from the busier end of the high street

    Nothing , it had everything we wanted.

    A lovely bright and airy cottage in a great location. Easy free parking outside property and walking distance to the High Street and beach front / walks. The cottage was very well equipped, very good decorative condition, cosy and comfortable. We would certainly recommend and look forward to returning again.

    Bed softer than I like. "Designer" sink and basin with flat bottoms that don't drain towards the outlet...

    Very clean modern interior, nicely decorated. Everything we needed for our 3 night stay. Excellent location.

    Very disappointing

    • Stayed 2 nights

    Booking.com described this property as two bathroom and show a shower head with the figure 2 beside it. It was only one bathroom with a wc and basin no second bathroom. The bathroom was an essential since we were a mixed group so Booking.com mis represented this property which caused considerable annoyance and disappointment. I am a loyal customer who has been badly let down by booking.com. Further their is a warning that renters will be fined £25 for any marks on towels the ones left for us had to be returned as they had such marks not very well cleaned or checked. The heating failed on day one leaving us cold and without access to any hot water for one of our two days stay. It was fixed the towels were replaced but without any sense of regret or apology from air manage. Not a lot else to go wrong on a 2 day trip and very little in the way of satisfaction or interest from the property management company and a false description by booking .com a company I have used for decades all over the world but will now have to think carefully as to whether I can trust them in the future.

    The location was very good with parking available outside
