British composer Benjamin Britten lived and worked in this charming coastal town so when you hire an Aldeburgh holiday cottage you’ll see what all the fuss is about.

The ultimate creative coastal hub – now boasting blue flag waters, bonny beach huts, a plethora of independent shops and holiday homes – Aldeburgh was once the inspiration of some of Britten’s greatest works and his legacy is a fantastic annual arts festival. No short break in Aldeburgh is complete without a stop at Snape Maltings, found in An Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty with a year-round diverse arts programme, or a pilgrimage to the Scallop sculpture found on the shoreline with an ode to Britten’s magical words. Hire one of our properties with sea views and you too can experience the magic that Benjamin Britten found in this seaside Suffolk pearl.
