From the owner

Our family has been holidaying at 'Westdene' for three generations and it just gets better every year! Whatever time you choose to visit this unique part of Suffolk, there is a never ending list of things to do.

For families there's our huge garden and all the attractions of Thorpeness are within walking distance; the Meare, where you can hire boats and explore the many islands, the Windmill, House in the Clouds, tennis courts at the Country Club and of course the beach.

The Golf Club with its challenging 18-hole course is nearby, as is the Dolphin Pub which has a garden and offers great food.

Two miles away is beautiful Aldeburgh, packed with excellent restaurants, shops and the best fish and chips in Suffolk!

Westdene is situated up an unmade, private roadway. It has light and spacious accommodation for up to 8 people with all mod-cons:

Ground floor: living/dining room with open fire, kitchen, utility room, fitted kitchen (high chair available), twin bedroom, double bedroom, wc, bathroom with bath and shower, and wc.

First floor: Twin bedroom, double bedroom, new shower room and wc. Travel cot available (no bedding for this).

Outside: Enclosed, south-facing garden with patio area. There is ample parking at the front of the house.
