Thorpeness is located just 2 miles from the picturesque seaside town of Aldeburgh and is in an excellent location for discovering some of the best of the Suffolk coastline on a cottage holiday.  Located within the Suffolk Coast and Heath Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, this coastal village is extremely pretty and is essentially a collection of cottages nestled amongst greenery with the added benefit of being by the coast.  Thorpeness also has its own quiet shingle beach.

Notably, in this pretty village, is a Grade II listed windmill, built in 1803, located close to the amazing ‘House in the Clouds’, an impressive looking former water tower which has now been converted in to unusual self-catering holiday accommodation.  Thorpeness also benefits from a boating lake which is open during the summer months.  Hire a rowing boat and enjoy sharing the lake with the swans!
