    “Great location.”

    Great views. Pebble beach. Mad people swimming early morning !! Needs a little tlc on paintwork. Heating problem sorted quickly - thank you! Leak under bath reported.

    Great views. Pebble beach. Mad people swimming early morning !! Needs a little tlc on paintwork. Heating problem sorted quickly - thank you! Leak under bath reported. Sorry but guests said there was a musty smell in smaller bedroom. Finally found the freezer in the shed but the two fridges were very welcome. Take your own comfortable outside chairs as only a wooden table with benches and one sitting out comfortable chair and one quite old deck chair. Concrete steps to beach quite steep. Garden near beach could do with some tlc. However, all that said - we had a great holiday despite some rain and strong wind. Thank you.

The property

Once a fisherman's dwelling, this chic single storey beachside self-catering Suffolk holiday cottage is light and airy with dramatic sea views on three sides of the building. Open Plan Living/Kitchen/Dining Room The open plan living space with natural fibre carpet runs down two sides of the property and has ample seating on the large corner sofa and a large day bed - both finished with masses of cushions. A long refectory table provides a wonderful setting for meals with family and friends, which can be cooked on the Smeg range cooker in the simply furnished kitchen. Bedrooms A door leads from the living area to the bedrooms and bathrooms. There are two rooms with double beds and a third has four built-in bunk beds, two of which are child-sized. The upper bunks are reached via a step ladder. This third bedroom has interior rather than external windows which look out into the living room, with views beyond this to the sea. Although the bedrooms aren't particularly big, this is made up for by the generously-sized communal areas and superb location on the beach. Bathroom There’s a bathroom with bath, washbasin and w.c. Shower Room This has an overhead shower, washbasin and w.c. Outside Patio doors lead from the living room area to a generously sized grassed patio area which looks directly out to sea across the sand and shingle beach, with private steps leading onto the beach. The large outside table and chairs plus deck chairs make this an ideal vantage point to wile away the hours looking out to sea or reading magazines. There is off-road parking for two vehicles. Valetta is a very relaxed and chic property, perhaps not as highly finished as some of our other properties but it is incredibly popular and well worth a visit.
