With stunning views over Hazlewood Marshes, this beautiful cottage is a perfect base for couples or families to explore the delights of the Suffolk coast,– where better to rest your weary legs after days spent exploring the beautiful surrounding coastline? It’s the ideal retreat for keen walkers and birdwatchers, as it sits on the popular Sailors' Path. Utterly perfect for a couple or a small family looking to escape the busyness of life and recharge their batteries.


Accessed via a private lane, the cottage steps back from the hubbub of the town to enjoy peaceful surroundings and view over Hazlewood Marshes. The ground floor is full of places to sit and socialise; for starters, you have a sitting room with its inglenook fireplace, wood burner and full-height pitched ceiling. There’s comfortable seating here with a TV and Sky package, and the sofa converts to a fully sprung double bed. The kitchen is kitted out with everything needed for a self-catering stay and there’s a small table for two. For a little more space, head to the dining room where there’s a table seating four guests. The conservatory is the final spot to rest with comfortable wicker chairs and a place to store coats. The shower room completes the ground floor. The first floor houses the bedrooms with a double and a small double (the latter boasts views over the marshland). Finally, there’s a WC for convenience. Outside, there’s a garden area laid to lawn with a patio and furniture.


The cottage sits in an enviable position on the cusp of Aldeburgh and Friston. Friston village has a large central green with many footpaths around the village. Just 4 miles away is the famous RSPB Minsmere. Snape Maltings is just 3 miles away; a waterside venue with unique speciality shops and the famous Snape Maltings Concert Hall. Snape Maltings offers good food and unique walks alongside reed beds and the tidal estuary. Aldeburgh has inspired many authors and poets in the past, but the most famous son of the town is Benjamin Britten, who founded the Aldeburgh Music Festival, which now has worldwide acclaim and is held every year in June at Snape Maltings. Fishermen still pull their colourful boats up on the shingle beach and sell fresh fish from the picturesque huts. Boating is popular on the nearby Alde Estuary where a large variety of yachts can be seen during summer weekends.
