Overview

Welcome to your front-row seat to the perfect seaside escape! The Lookout is our easy-breezy retreat perched right on the Deben estuary - a true home away from home with dollops of coastal charisma. With space for up to eight lucky guests across four elegant double bedrooms, it’s tailor-made for families or your favourite group... of friends.

The best part? The location. You’re right on the water with beautiful estuary views - perfect for lazy mornings with a coffee or winding down after a day out. And if you fancy a wander, there’s a cafe and restaurant just down the road and the beach and golf course practically on your doorstep.

Stylish but never snobby, comfy without trying too hard - The Lookout is your perfect launchpad for soaking up the best of the Suffolk coast. Kick back, unwind, and make yourself at home.

Features

The views might be breathtaking, but so are the digs! The star of the show is the open plan second floor with phenomenal panoramic views over the Deben estuary that are so good, you might forget there's even a TV. The sitting area is a toasty haven of comfy sofas surrounding a cosy wood-burner. But, if the estuary views become too demanding (we get it!), there's a snug with a Smart TV waiting to do its best distraction work.

The adjoining kitchen and dining area is a chef’s (and a wine lover's!) dream with modern appliances including, and importantly, a wine...
cooler for the perfect chilled glass after a long day. The family-style dining table is perfect for casual meals or even special occasions.

Heading down to the first floor reveals two stunning bedrooms both boasting double beds perfectly positioned to enjoy captivating views and are complete with their own sleek and modern en-suite bathrooms. Both bedrooms have access to the balcony where you can soak in those amazing views while bedroom 1’s ensuite offers privacy glass that can be made clear or opaque so you can, quite literally, soak in the views!

Finally, on the ground floor there are two more stunning double bedrooms (one with an ensuite) with garden views, plus sneaky peaks at the coastal path. If you head through the hidden door, you might find the handy utility room with washing machine, just in case you need a mid-stay freshen up.

And to top it all off, every room in this property features the ultimate in modern convenience, electric blinds! You will only have to lift a finger from the comfort of your sofa or bed to enjoy those seascapes.
