The property was as described, great location and check in was good. We appreciated the complimentary cookies but would have preferred some kitchen roll and , more importantly, a spare loo roll; there was a half roll when we arrived but no spare. Luckily I had tissues with me but it was a little inconvenient. The main problem was that despite it being in the middle of a heat wave the back bedroom window was locked with no key available and the water heater was in the same room so it was even warmer than it would have been. A fan would have made a big difference. It was a sweet property but could have been improved with a little attention to detail.

The owners have obviously put care into the property and modernised it to the best of their ability. It was clean and well postioned if you want to explore the town on foot. Parking is very difficult,diespecially if you have mo can' wamt in

Thimble Cottage is sweet and nicely decorated but was a bit too small for 4 not large adults in our opinion. Easy location to explore delightful Southwold from. It was however rather noisy (bus stop and lovely pop up bakery queues outside main bedroom window from early in the morning, dog grooming parlour immediately behind the tiny courtyard, public bins being emptied at 5:30am in the High St). We were also greeted with an overflowing bin of rubbish in the courtyard from previous guests which we sorted with help from the lovely neighbour . No mattress protectors and stained mattresses. No wine glasses or even any matching glasses.
