The house was built by Newson Garrett, father of feminist pioneers Elizabeth Garrett Anderson and Millicent Fawcett in 1893. The house is colourful with interesting artworks. We have a big garden and are situated in a private road in the quiet and wooded part of Aldeburgh opposite the town tennis courts away from the bustle of the seaside crowds. The footpath beyond the front gate leads to the marshes and the river. In the other direction Aldeburgh high street and the beach are less than 10 minutes walk. There is ample parking space. Aldeburgh town is full of good shops and great places to eat and drink.
