Mr Mercade
A great cottage right in the heart of Aldeburgh. All the shops, restaurants and the beach are within easy walking distance. Having parking was a real bonus. Clean, tidy and very comfortable. Plenty to see and do in Aldeburgh itself and also in the general area within a short drive. If we came this way again we would certainly return here.

We had a really lovely week. The cottage is an easy walk to everything - beach, shops, cinema, theatre and restaurants. Sitting at the table in the garden with a coffee and a book was my favourite activity each day.

Lovely period cottage with original features in a great location on the High Street at the foot of the Town Steps. Well equipped and very comfortable. Twin room was very spacious, with it's own vanity sink. Lots of storage space. Parking at the side of the house (paved garden area) with double gated access. Good wifi and phone signal. Moments to the beach and a variety of lovely restaurants and pubs. Perfect.
