Sweet little cottage in Reydon, Southwold
Sweet little 2 bed cottage in Reydon which is about a 15 -20 minute walk into Southwold. The cottage is nicely appointed, and the beds were super comfortable and bedding and towels provided. A small carton of milk and some basic staples (tea bags, biscuits) were also provided along with some useful things like dishwasher tablets, toilet rolls and kitchen towel. The log burner was an enjoyable edition and the shower extremely effective. The bathroom is downstairs which could be a problem for those less able and the stair case is very steep indeed so again worth bearing in mind if you are less able. We loved Southwold and look forward to visiting again. Do bear in mind that, even in March, it is very busy. We hadn’t booked a restaurant in advance as we thought we would have a mooch and book Saturday lunchtime for that evening but they were all fully booked! Interestingly for such a chic place there are only 2 decent restaurants to choose from, the rest being pubs. Also bear in mind if you go in winter or have walking restrictions, you cannot get a taxi easily. We had thought to go out for dinner and get a taxi back and were told in no uncertain terms that this was unlikely to be possible by both the Swan Hotel and Adnams Brewery. Apparently they all come from Lowestoft so there isn’t a taxi service in town. Just bear that in mind if you don’t fancy the walk at night.
