The Old Mill

"Old Mill simply has everything you need for a perfect holiday in Southwold."- Caroline Wakeling

A short walk from the beach and hubbub of Southwold, in beautiful green surroundings, is a house that’s waiting to offer you peace and relaxation by the sea. Pull up a chair in the bay window, look out over Southwold Common, and feel yourself breathe. This is what tranquillity is all about.

Tranquillity by the sea

Book yourself in for some rejuvenating Suffolk sea air. A place to spend long, lazy days on the beach or walking the clifftops. And then, when the sun finally begins to dip, gather up your picnic basket and stroll back to a house that’s swimming in elegance and set in unspoilt greenery.

The Old Mill is a lovingly-restored townhouse in one of the most desirable locations in the town. Inside, luxe living comes as standard, and there’s oodles of space to spread out and socialise.

Curl up in the colour pop lounge, where bright, modern sofas will envelop your very soul. Or perch in the drawing-room with a good book. The games room is sure to be a hit, with a PS4 for rainy mornings, and the conservatory is the place to lie back with a glass of red and gaze at the stars overhead.

The social kitchen is big enough to cook up a feast at the traditional Aga or pop on some music and mix up the cocktails if you’re celebrating.

Pick of the bedrooms is the master, where light, neutral tones create a soothing environment and serve to show off the vast greenery on view from the large bay window in all its glory. You should be able to spot the golf club in the distance, which offers complimentary membership to two guests at The Old Mill.
