Summary
The location of the property is praised for its convenience and proximity to the beach and town. The accommodation is spacious and comfortable for families, although issues with WiFi and TV navigation were noted. Suggestions for improvements include garden tidying and a refresh of bathrooms.
The property
Ideally positioned on Southwold's Constitution Hill and just a stone’s throw from the beach, Iona Cottage offers superb holiday accommodation, which is ideal for a large family or group of friends on holiday together. Originally two properties, this charming property offers accommodation to make sure its guests enjoy a relaxing and memorable holiday. The welcoming sitting room has traditional features such as an ornamental fireplace, original sash windows and period wood panelling and with two comfortable sofas. The hand crafted kitchen is fully fitted with everything that is needed to create fabulous food for the whole family. There is even a separate dining room, a really inviting space where guests can pull up a chair and sit around the dining table looking out onto the courtyard garden, whilst enjoying delicious, decadent meals together. There is even some outside space to be had, in the shape of an outside courtyard complete with a set of patio furniture, so if the weather allows, this is the perfect spot for some alfresco entertaining. A great addition to the accommodation a snug where the kids can slope off and enjoy some telly and chill time while the adults can enjoy grown-up time together. Everyone’s a winner at Iona Cottage! At bedtime, there is a bed to suit everyone from a two double bedrooms, two king size bedrooms and a bunk room with additional single; all are warm and welcoming and a great place to rest your weary heads after a long day of getting out and about exploring. Talking of exploring, you’ll want to get to know the area, so why not start with a stroll into charming Southwold? Here you will find some great shops and eateries as well as a pier and lighthouse. Southwold is home to the famous Adnams Brewery which you can enjoy a tour of, and if you like a tipple then there are other tours available locally including Shawsgate Vineyard, the English Whiskey Company and Valley Farm Vineyard. Jump in the car for days out to attractions such as Yoxford Antiques Centre and Gardens, Framlingham Castle, Easton Farm Park, Go Ape Thetford and Helmingham Hall and Open Gardens. Iona Cottage is a superb base from which to explore the delights of Southwold and beyond.
