Walberswick Church House United Kingdom

Set in the charming village of Walberswick, this coastal home provides an idyllic space to explore the beauty of the Suffolk coast.  Accommodating up to ten guests, this spacious, modern house is thoughtfully designed, with artwork on the walls and a gorgeous garden complete with private swimming pool, sun loungers and crochet for the lawn!
Throw open the doors of the spacious living room and let in the coastal air, allowing you to wonder from indoors to out with ease, Pimm’s in hand!  A large log-burner warms the room on colder months, whilst lunch or dinner can be enjoyed either at the large oak dining table or al fresco on the garden furniture.  
A farmhouse style kitchen has a breakfast island and smaller table, perfect to enjoy a coffee and croissant whilst planning you day out on the coast. With pretty dressers and modern amenities from dishwasher to range cooker, it will be a delight to spend time prepping meals whilst chatting and catching up over a glass of wine.  A lovely colour pop conservatory offers a sun-filled space to get on with your holiday novel, with doors flung open to access the stunning garden.
The sleeping accommodation can be found on the first floor, consisting of one super-king, three double bedrooms and a twin room, each with their own en-suite, with bed linens and towels included.   Two of the bedrooms benefit from access to a lovely, shared balcony overlooking the garden and providing an idyllic spot to enjoy your morning coffee in peace and tranquillity.
Throw open the large floor to ceiling patio doors and step out to your own private swimming pool, bedecked with sun loungers, the ideal spot to recline with a cocktail when the sun is shining.  With a BBQ on the go and a game of croquet on the lawn, it will be hard to tempt your group back inside of an evening!  Yet, with the unspoilt Suffolk coast at your door, there is much to explore in the delightful village of Walberswick from the local sand and shingle beach to nearby marsh and heathland, plus with two local pubs at your disposal it would be wrong not to enjoy a tranquil pint in the sunshine.The lovely village of Walberswick has a nostalgic charm, with a pretty sand and shingle beach complete with grassy dunes.  There are some lovely cycle routes to take and explore giving great opportunities for birdwatching along the heath and marshland or crabbing of the pretty wooden footbridges.  Two local pubs serve the village well, the Anchor and The Bell, serving local ales and delicious food, a great end destination after a long walk down the Suffolk Coast Path that leads to the historic village of Dunwich.
Accessible by a summer foot ferry, or a stroll down the old railway path is the town of Southwold which combines a sandy shingle coastline with a bustling market town with much to see and do.   Clamber to the top of the town’s working lighthouse, operating since 1887, this remarkable landmark is a great place to survey the coastline from its inland location.
The calling card of many a British seaside town is the pier, and Southwold doesn’t disappoint.  Southwold pier has many crafty shops and a wall of crazy mirrors to keep the kids entertained.  An eccentric Under the Pier show offers an array of weird and wonderful coin-operated interactive machines which is well worth a visit and why not finish it off with some chunky fish finger sandwiches at The Boardwalk on the pier or for the best local fish and chips head to Sole Bay’s Fish Company.
For further coastline exploring why not take a drive to Aldeburgh Beach, one of the most popular on the Suffolk coast, with a host of quirky historic buildings from a Martello Tower, a converted windmill and a Norman church lining the coast.  A history of art and culture is connected with Aldeburgh with Caroline Wiseman’s gallery located right on the beach.
Under an hour’s drive away is Framlington Castle a magnificent 12th century fortress with a fascinating history.  Embark on the 10.5m high Wall Walk that has stood for over 800 years looking down on spectacular views of Framlingham mere.  There is also a workhouse and exhibition to explore, detailing the former residents of the Castle including Mary Tudor, who was proclaimed Queen in 1553 at the Castle itself.
More historic findings can be discovered at Suffolk’s awe-inspiring Anglo Saxon burial site at Sutton Hoo, the subject of Netflix film “The Dig.”  Alongside the site itself you can look out from the 17-metre-high viewing tower, take a stroll through the charming woodland or pay a visit to the High Hall exhibition featuring replicas and original objects found at the site.
