❤️Seaside Fisherman Cottage❤️Aldeburgh⛱️
A gorgeous haven for couples and families, it is a wonderful holiday base throughout the year, with coast, countryside, culture & food on the doorstep. Days at the beach, sailing, horseriding, fishing, birdwatching, relaxing galore!
This lovely Victorian fisherman's cottage is in the heart of Aldeburgh on a quiet street, 25 yards from the beach and 25 yards from Aldeburgh high street. Arwen cottage is a lovely cosy cottage, full of character and exceptionally comfortable, clean and well-equipped, including the use of unlimited Wi-Fi and super fast broadband.
Arwen cottage is close to an excellent selection of shops, restaurants, characterful pubs, excellent art galleries, a cinema and a theatre. The cottage is also a few paces from the most famous fish and chip shop in the country.
There are excellent restaurants just a couple of minutes walk away - The Lighthouse, Regatta and Brudenell are all excellent as well as several others. As you step out of the cottage door the promenade and beach are a few paces in one direction, and the high street just yards away the other way. Despite the perfect location, the cottage is delightfully peaceful.
There is also public parking just outside the cottage.
The cottage has been re-furbished in a light but luxurious style and has been brought into the 21st century, with contemporary kitchen and bathroom and very comfy furnishings. On the ground floor it has a lovely cosy living room and dining space with a well-equipped kitchen and bathroom. There is a private sunny courtyard with outside furniture too.
On the first floor it has a master bedroom which is spacious and peaceful with Victorian sash windows and a solid wood frame king size bed. There is also a guest bedroom, which is furnished with a bunk-bed made of metal frame and superior quality mattresses, covered with natural linen.
Arwen cottage is a lovely fisherman's cottage, full of character and exceptionally comfortable. We provide complimentary toiletries and essential pantry items such as coffee, tea, sugar, biscuits, salt and pepper. We also provide household essentials such as washing up liquid, cling film wrap, foil paper and cleaning products.

The Neighbourhood:
The house is situated in the heart of Aldeburgh just one street from the sea front (25 yards). This picturesque Suffolk seaside town is particularly popular among music lovers, bird watchers, walkers and artists.
Aldeburgh and the surrounding area has inspired many authors and poets in the past but the most famous son of the town is Benjamin Britten who founded the Aldeburgh Music Festival which now has worldwide acclaim and is held every year in June at Snape Maltings.
Fishermen still pull their colourful boats up on the shingle beach and sell fresh fish from the picturesque huts. The wide, mainly Georgian high street has many attractive buildings whilst the seafront properties all have commanding views of the beach and the North Sea. Sailing is popular on the nearby Alde estuary where a large variety of yachts can be seen at summer weekends.
Aldeburgh’s high street hosts a number of good restaurants, pubs, antique shops, bookshops, bakers, butchers, fishmongers, and the best fish and chips shop in the country.

All the main services and attractions in Aldeburgh are only a short walk away. There are local buses from the High Street, including to Saxmundham railway station.
Thorpeness is a short drive away, and many people delight in walking there along the shingle beach, admiring Maggi Hambling's famous scallop sculpture on the way.
For an evening stroll or Sunday walk, Thorpeness Meare is just 15 mins walk away or Kings Field is just 10 mins walk away. From the town, you can take a bus or taxi for the short journey into Leiston, Snape or Saxmundham - for an evening at the cinema, theatre or a concert; or a train to the cinema in Woodbridge, or the Arts Centre in Halesworth.
