Great location for exploring Aldeburgh from. Fantastic view from master bedroom. Needs some improvements on cleaning as downstairs floor dirty on arrival and not suitable for a baby to crawl or sit on.

Lovely house and garden which we enjoyed during a sunny week in Aldeburgh. Shame about the building works opposite.
