Deep within the Suffolk countryside close to England's east coastline lies this pair of conjoined cottages. Each has its own living room, kitchen and private patio, which give visiting parties that little bit of added flexibility. The interior design is similar in both, with a pleasing mix of the old and new — we're talking wooden ceiling beams next to sleek white kitchens and pristine bathrooms. If you're here during the winter months, there's a wood-burner in each house, but if the sunshine makes an appearance, there's a private tennis court on the premises that guests are welcome to use. Further afield, Captain's Wood nature reserve can be reached in half an hour on foot — or three minutes in the car — while Aldeburgh Beach is seventeen minutes' drive away.

About Aldeburgh
When the sun sets on Aldeburgh, the pastel-coloured houses that line the shore seem to glow and the pebbled beach takes on a rainbow hue. Here, the buildings come right up to the beach, so you just need to hop over the coastal wall to reach the sea.
