A delightfully spacious house, well equipped, and really close to the beach. We swam, had a tour of the Sizewell nuclear power station and two of our group ran a mini-marathon (10km) as part of the Aldeburgh Carnival.
Minor quibble: no lemon squeezer or garlic crusher in the (otherwise well-equipped)Kitchen.
