Holiday lets and holiday homes in Suffolk

The right base depends on what you want from your break. If beach walks and fish and chips by the harbour are top of the list, the coast between Southwold and Aldeburgh is hard to beat. Southwold has its pier, lighthouse and colourful beach huts, and Walberswick sits just across the river. Aldeburgh, a little further south, is known for its shingle beach and its long high street.

If you would rather have space and quiet, the countryside around Framlingham, Saxmundham and the Blyth valley offers rolling farmland, village pubs and big skies, while still being a reasonable drive from the sea. Further south, Woodbridge and the Deben estuary give you a pretty market town with river walks, and Orford offers a castle, a quay and access to some of the wildest coastline in the county.

Compared with a hotel, a holiday let gives you room to spread out, cook when you want to and keep your own hours. That makes a real difference for families with young children, for groups of friends who want to share meals, and for anyone bringing a dog. Several of our homes welcome pets; each listing says clearly whether pets are allowed, so please check before you book.

Our managed homes are cleaned and prepared between every stay, and each has a digital guidebook with arrival details, Wi-Fi information and local tips. If anything comes up during your stay, our local team is a phone call away on 01473 845182.

Summer is the busiest time on the Suffolk coast, especially during school holidays, so homes near the beach tend to book up early. Spring and autumn are quieter, with good walking weather and easier parking in the coastal towns. Winter suits anyone who enjoys a log burner, a bracing beach walk and a long pub lunch. Prices and minimum stays vary through the year, and the booking page always shows the current figures for your dates.

When you book one of our managed homes through our own website, you deal directly with the people who look after the property. Choose your dates on the booking page to see which homes are free and what they cost. For the homes we advertise on behalf of their owners, use the enquiry form on the property page and we will pass your request on. If you are not sure which home suits your group, call us and we will talk you through the options.
