Description of Oyster Cottage
A well equipped former fisherman's cottage within easy reach of the beach and the sea. Aldeburgh and the surrounding area has inspired many authors and poets in the past but the most famous son of the town is Benjamin Britten who founded the Aldeburgh Music Festival which now has worldwide acclaim and is held every year in June at Snape Maltings. Fishermen still pull their colourful boats up on the shingle beach and sell fresh fish from the picturesque huts. The wide, mainly Georgian high street has many attractive buildings whilst the seafront properties all have commanding views of the beach and the North Sea. Boating is popular on the nearby Alde estuary where a large variety of yachts can be seen at summer weekends. Trains can be found at Saxmundham 6 miles away. Regular buses depart for Saxmundham, Leiston and Woodbridge from Aldeburgh High Street. Oyster Cottage is in a prime position just off the town centre and only one street away (150 yards) from the beach. The property is a charming refurbished fisherman's cottage with a small courtyard that catches the afternoon sun. It has been thoughtfully furnished and equipped to a high standard and provides a welcoming retreat made for two. The cottage is in an ideal location to explore the delights of the heritage coast, from beachcombing in the summer to autumn walks and cosy open fires. Shop:150 yards Pub: 50 yards.
