Location
About the surrounding area of Southwold Beach HouseSouthwold Beach House occupies one of the best, most prestigious positions in Southwold. It is right across the road from the beach with wonderful views of the pier. There are few seaside towns quite so quintessentially British as Southwold. It is little wonder that it is so popular! Pretty pastel painted beach huts line the promenade and the sandy beach is vast. The iconic pier was refurbished and blends in perfectly. It is lined with shops, eateries and amusements. Southwold lies between the pretty resort of Aldeburgh and the busy town of Lowestoft on the Suffolk Heritage Coast. Southwold is almost an island, being bounded by the North Sea to the East, by the River Blyth and Southwold Harbour to the South West and by Buss Creek to the North. There is only one road in and out of the town which adds to its magic. Southwold is home to the famous Adnams Brewery with its brewing rooms set just behind the High Street, adjacent to the town’s iconic lighthouse. Adnams offer brewery tours throughout the year and you can sample the tasty pints everywhere. The Coastal Voyage is one of the most popular trips. At high speed, your boat is put through formidable paces in a 30 minute tour where you will see marsh harriers, herons, gulls and possibly osprey.
There are some wonderful walks that you can take straight from Southwold Beach House. You can cross the River Blyth to Walberswick, exploring the trackbed of the old Southwold Railway and returning on the little ferry if you want a change for the return. Over a thousand acres of heath and marshland around Walberswick are protected as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Walberswick offers tea rooms, restaurants, two pubs, an art gallery, village shops and some charming craft and gift shops. Fresh fish can be bought from the harbour huts and crabbing is very popular for children by the harbour. Walberswick used to host the annual British Open Crabbing Championship, raising funds for good causes.
Aldeburgh is enchanting. It’s famous resident, Benjamin Britten, the founder of the June Aldeburgh Festival, is celebrated throughout the town. There is a wonderful sculpture on the beach. Aldeburgh is very pretty with pastel coloured 19th century homes lining the promenade, a wonderful pebble beach and fisherman’s huts selling the local daily catch.
If you are on holiday between July and September, you may want to visit the Dunwich Heath Coastal Centre and Beach. It is quietly tucked away, offering tranquility and a true sense of being at one with nature. The heath is alive with colour during the summer months, a patchwork of pink and purple heather and coconut scented yellow gorse. It is a rare and precious habitat for dartford warblers, nightjars, woodlarks, adders and much more.

Best Suited For: All AgesSouthwold Beach House is perfect for a family holiday. It could be an extended family or even two families. The house sleeps 14 guests. The quad bunk room is a delight and likely to be great fun for children. Having the beach across the road is a major plus. Guests can enjoy all of the delights of Southwold without endless car journeys.
Southwold’s pier is a great attraction with family games, snacks and gift shops. Children can lose themselves for hours in the House of Games, a electric, light-filled arcade room. They can test their skills on the air hockey tables and fill their pockets with change as money spills out of the machines. The famous Under the Pier Show is crammed with a unique collection of hand-built, amusing machinery. A seaside venture wouldn’t be complete without some delicious Suffolk Meadown ice cream. It is a joy to be able to stroll over from the house. Children also enjoy visiting the iconic lighthouse and spending sunny days on the beach. You can choose your spot from the house. The little rowing boat ferry from Southwold to Walberswick is popular. Once you get there, you can enjoy some crabbing and time on the beach.
Lowestoft is a fabulous seaside town with much entertainment including the wonderful Somerleyton Hall and Gardens, the East Anglia Transport Museum, Africa Alive, Sparrow’s Nest and Gardens, the Marina Theatre and various other museums. There are 14 lanes of glow bowling at the Richardson’s Family Entertainment Centre, skating and an arcade on Claremont Pier and over 35 rides, attractions and shows at the Pleasurewood Hills Family Theme Park. Set in 50 acres, the theme park has rides up to 50mph as well as water based ones. Smaller children will enjoy the Flying Elephant ride, Balloon Rays and the Big Train whilst the older thrill-seeking ones enjoy the Wave Breaker and Kite Flyer. There are also sea lion and parrot shows. The East Anglia Transport Museum is a living museum showing the development of transport over almost a century. Vehicles of yesteryear can be seen in action. It is wonderful opportunity to travel on types of vehicle that are now half forgotten.
Africa Alive offers interactive animal adventures where children can explore the sights and sounds of Africa. They will discover African lions, giraffes, meerkats and hunting dogs as well as 5 species of savannah animals, including giraffes and rhinos, at the ‘Plains of Africa’ centrepiece. There are also lemurs, bushbabies, colobus monkeys and many birds. The feeding talks and Bird of Prey displays are popular.
