Summary

Feedback highlights the cottage's excellent location near Aldeburgh town and beach, comfortable amenities, and generous welcome pack. While many enjoyed their stays, concerns included cleanliness inconsistency, TV access issues, and parking availability after 5pm. Overall, a comfortable and well-equipped property.

The property

Holmleigh’s owners have introduced seaside touches throughout this charming former Victorian railway cottage, reflecting its coastal location close to Aldeburgh’s popular shingle beach.
The front door opens into a comfortable living room, leading through to a dining room with a fully equipped kitchen beyond and a downstairs cloakroom. Upstairs there is a lovely sunny double bedroom and a second bedroom with bunk beds. The spacious bathroom opens off the second bedroom.

The original fireplace has cupboards on either side with TV and DVD player, as well as a supply of books, DVDs and games.
The room is furnished with two comfortable leather armchairs, a sofa, and occasional tables.

Dining Room
An opening with step down leads from the living room to the dining room, from which a second opening and step down to the kitchen gives the cottage a sociable, open plan feel.
A west-facing window allows the evening sun to stream in, and the room is furnished with a handsome dining table, four upholstered chairs, a sofa and storage cabinet.
A door opens directly onto carpeted stairs rising to the first floor, enabling pets to be shut downstairs.

Outside
Holmleigh is a mid-terraced holiday cottage with unrestricted on-road parking at the front.
Front access is through a gate in the picket fence, with steps down to the small front garden that faces east to catch the morning sun.
The sunny private back garden is accessed from the back door, through a back gate and across a path shared with other properties in the terrace. Both house and garden have picket fences and gates separating them from the shared path to create a safe, enclosed space.
