Simplicity by the Sea - Number 5 Southwold

About US

Number 5 Southwold is a welcoming seaside cottage with a modern, comfortable living space—just 2 minutes from Gun Hill Beach, so buckets, spades, and sandy toes are never far away!

The cottage has a large garden which is perfect for family barbecues, relaxed outdoor meals, and gives children and dogs plenty of safe space to run and play.

The high street is less than a 4-minute stroll, where you’ll find independent shops, family-friendly restaurants, pubs, and a playground for the kids. With coastal paths and circular gardens right outside, there’s always somewhere new to explore.

Number 5 is both family-friendly and pet-friendly, making it a popular seaside escape.

Just steps from Southwold’s iconic Gun Hill Beach and its colourful beach huts, the cottage is ideally located in the heart of town—close to vibrant cafés, acclaimed restaurants, cosy pubs, and unique independent boutiques.

Short breaks are welcome (minimum 3 nights), except during the summer holidays.

Our Testimonials

LOVELY FIRST STAY AT NO.5

"Very relaxing light and airy bungalow only a stone's throw from the beach. Hot tip: the beach kiosk is great, but it's much quicker to pop back to the bungalow for a takeaway cuppa"
