Thalassa

Boasting plenty of stylish space for socialising, this lovely property in Aldeburgh is the ideal accommodation option for large families or groups of friends in search of a modern home they can use as a base while exploring the stunning Suffolk coastline. With its pastel-coloured villas, traditional seafront promenade and quirky fishermen’s huts, Aldeburgh is a delight to discover. Take a stroll up the attractive Georgian high street (0.5 miles) to check out the boutiques and bistros; see where the composer Benjamin Britten created his works at The Red House (1 mile); and learn all about the Witches of Aldeburgh at the town’s museum (0.5 miles). Alternatively, wander along the beach to visit the 4m-high 'Scallop' statue (0.2 miles), which was designed by celebrated Suffolk-born artist Maggi Hambling. Continuing the creative theme, head to Aldeburgh Beach Lookout and Art House (0.5 miles) or Ballroom Arts (0.5 miles) to browse out the works of the region’s artists.

Occupying a prominent position in a peaceful development – and boasting quality British handcrafted furniture and furnishings throughout - this gorgeous holiday home simply oozes exclusivity. Step inside and you’ll find a welcoming entrance hall with a handy cloakroom with WC. This leads through to a spacious living area that flows all the way from the sophisticated solid wood and granite kitchen area to a large dining area, and then through double doors to a generously-proportioned lounge with its welcoming wood burner. It’s the ideal space for fun get-togethers with family and friends. A handy utility room completes the ground-floor layout. Head up to the first floor and you’ll discover three gracious bedrooms – two king-size bedrooms with en-suites and one twin bedroom that can be configured into a king-size on request. A smart family bathroom rounds off the first-floor layout. Up on the second floor, there’s another large king-size bedroom (can be configured into a twin on request) with a pretty Velux Juliet balcony. A handy shower room with a double shower cubicle completes the layout. There is a Juliet balcony on the second floor which pushes out so you can enjoy stargazing while listening to the gentle sounds of the sea.

Step outside and you’ll discover a large, peaceful, private and enclosed garden. This south and west-facing haven features a lawn and a large paved patio area that’s perfect for al fresco dining or evening drinks.
