2 Beach Cottages, Thorpeness

Originally a fisherman’s home, this beautifully renovated cottage sits quietly in the heart of the seaside village of Thorpeness - ideal for a romantic break exploring the picturesque Suffolk Coast. Light streams into the spacious open plan living space with its’ well-equipped kitchen, stylish living room, and sunny conservatory; and steep stairs take you to the bedroom with a king size bed and luxurious bathroom; with the added bonus of a shower room on the ground floor. Light streams into the house through the conservatory which leads to the cosy and smart living area with the kitchen beyond. A massive L shaped sofa encourages you to relax and enjoy something on the TV, perhaps a DVD from a selection beneath, or choose a jigsaw or a book from the collection provided. The smart modern kitchen has everything you need to prepare meals at home, with a table and chairs in the conservatory for you to dine at. Equipment includes an electric oven and four ring hob, an under counter fridge (3 shelves), an under counter freezer (3 drawers), a slimline dishwasher, toaster, microwave, and a kettle. The utility cupboard with a washing machinge, a drying rack, and the boiler, is beside the shower room. SHOWER ROOM This chic shower room is fitted with both rain and hand-held shower heads and there’s a wash basin, WC, heated towel rail (towels will be provided), and natural light. FIRST FLOOR A little door in the living space opens onto very steep, narrow and turning painted stairs rising to the first floor, with a three grab handles to steady you. You may want to consider the stairs when you’re packing as small/medium soft bags would be easier to manoeuver than a large one. BEDROOM The king size bed takes pride of place under the sky lights in this beautiful bedroom, flanked by bedside drawers and a couple of chairs. There’s a small TV and hooks and hangers on the wall for your clothes, a chest of drawers, and a cupboard for bags downstairs. EN-SUITE BATHROOM Soak up the peace and quiet of the cottage in the feature bath which sits beneath the skylight in this luxurious bathroom. The basin sits in an attractive unit with extra storage and there’s the essential WC, and a heated towel rail. OUTSIDE Beach Cottages are in a great position just a few steps away from all that Thorpeness has to offer – shingle beach, golf course, café, Meare, and excellent pub. An unmade road opposite The Kitchen takes you to the five-bar gate and side gate opening into the gravel drive where you can park one car. Please note that the neighbours do have pedestrian access. A large, raised lawn stretches to the front of the house with tables and chairs sitting on the gravelled area by the doors. NOTES This period mid-terraced cottage has typically steep stairs and low door frames which retain its character, however make it challenging for taller guests or those with a mobility issue.
