Good location for the Meare
Good location for the Meare
Great communication from property managers all along even up to the day we arrived - advising us unfortunately the dishwasher had broken and an engineer had looked at it but it wasn’t able to be fixed! However “they were onto it immediately”. We therefore thought we may be without a dishwasher for a few days as it was a bank holiday weekend (we’d booked a week) but we heard no more from them. We were surprised- a courtesy call would have been nice. However the novelty of washing up for 7 people morning noon and night (eating in the majority of the time) soon wore off! A property costing as much as this I would have expected general maintenance to be carried out. Downstairs alone 6 bulbs were out of action (one above the sink in the kitchen!) and the toaster only heated 2 slices of bread (4 slicer!). The gate leading from the garden to the Meare was hanging off it’s hinges so after the first use we didn’t use it again for fear of breaking it totally. The garden furniture was pretty cheap and miss matched (black, scrubby white etc. The house is right by the road leading into Thorpeness and then on into Aldeburgh. Great location however pretty noisy with traffic! We were also unlucky in that a stag party were renting a house opposite and partied into the night! Not this property’s fault obviously but be aware other rental properties are all around and you can be unlucky!

We had a great time in Thorpeness where, it seems, the sun always shine! The house is good but could use a bigger sign as we couldn't find it and had to ring to ask; another TV would curtail channel-related spats. The location is great for exploring the nearby coast -- Orford Ness is amazing!

This property is in a lovely position in Thorpeness and we were very lucky with the weather. The Dolphin pub is well worth a visit and we had a lovely meal at the golf club. Having read all of the reviews we were slightly disappointed with the interior of the house feeling that it needed just a bit of an update. As there were 8 adults in our party there was not enough seating in the lounge for all of us to sit comfortably.

Absolutely perfect

We stayed at Meare House with friends, 4 adults and 5 children. We had an absolutely fantastic time. The property is outstanding with fantastic furnishings and everything we could possibly need. There was enough room for all of us without feeling like we were under each other's feet. Compared to other properties we have rented everything about it was magnificent and grand, especially the roll top bath in the main bedroom! As for location, that was also perfect. Lovely views, fantastic coffee shop with great cakes just across the road and a lovely walk into Aldeburgh if you fancy it. Boats on the lake and a horse and carriage ride for the children, along with ice creams and then a lovely enclosed garden to run around in, they couldn't ask for more. We will definitely be going back!

Perfect for dogs and kids, brilliant gates for kitchen and we'll equipped with lots of toys and cutlery/plates etc for kids. Lovely house with great size rooms and very warm. Brilliant location and lovely nearby pub selling very lovely food. Only slight niggle is the kitchen handles were a bit sharp and slightly cut myself on it.
