Accommodation
Sweep through the gates to this stunning beach front Georgian mansion. The Red House is Aldeburgh/Thorpeness’ most prominent Georgian seafront property with direct private access to the beach via steps down from the garden. Set in an elevated position directly overlooking the sea, the stunning sea views cannot be beaten. A perfect holiday location, especially for those who enjoy beach holidays and long beach walks.
Upon entering The Red House there is an instant feel of space and opulence, double doors open into the exquisite drawing room, with marble fireplace, Sky TV and DVD player. This in turn opens to the elegant dining room and spacious garden room. French doors in most reception rooms open onto the rear garden which has its own direct access onto Thorpeness beach via private central steps. There is a large well fitted kitchen with breakfast room and a sitting room/seventh bedroom with two sofas that easily convert to single beds by removing the arm cushions. The master bedroom, with en-suite bathroom, has stunning sea views as has the guest master bedroom. There is a further double bedroom, three twin bedrooms and two lovely family bathrooms.
