Very nice, comfortable property. Ideal for visits to various locations in Suffolk. Lovely garden & conservatory. Everything we needed for a weeks stay.
The cottage was exactly what we wanted to spend some time in a great part of England. It is well decorated and furnished inside and most comfortable to stay in.
It is situated in a pretty small village with a wonderful pub a stones throw away which served excellent food and hosted by very friendly staff.
I certainly recommend this as a place to stay for visiting Suffolk.
Little Chequers was all that we had hoped for: clean, bright, comfortably furnished with plenty of space for two. The garden was a lovely unexpected extra and an impressive use of the space. Easy access to Aldeburgh, Snape, Dunwich Heath and RSPB Minsmere made this an ideal base for our visit.
Lovely cottage in quiet setting in the village of Friston. We particularly enjoyed having breakfast in the conservatory overlooking the daffodils in the courtyard garden & watching the birds on the bird feeder. Easy access to Snape, Aldeburgh & Orford to name just few. Closures beginning to occur due to the covid-19 crisis (which worsened after we returned home) but we still enjoyed picnics on our days out. Thank you Toni for a lovely stay & we look forward to returning in the future.

Wir haben den Aufenthalt sehr genossen. Toll war der Wintergarten mit dem angrenzenden wunderschönen Garten. Das Wetter war super, so dass wir viel draußen unternehmen konnten bzw. den Garten genießen konnten.
In der Küche findet man alles was man zum kochen braucht.
Hundebesitzer finden hier eine ideale und Hundefreundliche Umgebung.
Great place & will revisit next Spring hopefully: warm, clean & cosy home-from-home.
Can’t recommend it enough: ideal location for visiting Aldeburgh, Snape Maltings & Southwold; handy pub on the doorstep with great staff & food + dog-friendly.
Toni, the owner was very responsive to a couple of issues & resolved them quickly - literally just a phone call made every thing perfect.
The cottage was so very homely, as it was October it was chilly at night but the cottage was so cosy and warm to come back to. Aldeburgh itself was such a beautiful charming place… all in all a great Hoilday.
Cottage was clean , cosy and well equipped. Pretty courtyard garden was secluded and safe for dogs. Very quiet and peaceful, an ideal place to chill. Close to Aldburgh, Southwold, Snape, Dunwich and Walberswick. Pub a 2 minute walk away serving good food.
Definitely worth a return visit
Works well for a couple, well tended garden and conservatory great for breakfast. Very close to local pub & 10 mins by car to many places including Aldeburgh, well worth a visit.
We found the cottage very comfortable and bright, Lovely to have the conservatory for relaxing and for meals, A very nice Dining pub round the corner and the very pretty garden was the icing on the cake..
we stayed last week and found the cottage very clean on arrival. It's very comfortable and well equipped. Conveniently placed for the adjacent pub, (only open Wed. to Sun.currently, need to pre-book for meals. Had a good meal-v large portions!) It's a quiet village pub-no noise audible in the cottage.
Friston is a small village-no shops, but is only 10 minutes to Aldbrough, a nice town & promenade.
The small enclosed garden at the cottage was good to sit in during the great weather we had, but the chairs could be more comfortable!
We really enjoyed our stay, and would recommend the cottage to couples looking for a peaceful location.
We enjoyed our stay in this lovely cottage. Situated in a lovely village with a very welcoming pub less than a minute walk away. We found some great walks to take our energetic Labrador and son. Great base to explore the coastal towns of Southwold, Aldeburgh and Lowestoft. Leiston is a 5 minute drive away to stock up on essentials and some nice Take Aways if you don't feel like cooking. The cottage is very clean and comfortable and has everything you need for your stay, the owner has thought of everything, it feels like a real home from home definitely one of the best self catering cottages we have stayed in. We definitely recommend and will certainly be visiting again in the future. Thank you Toni for letting us stay in your lovely cottage.
A peaceful and cosy escape from current restrictions
A comfortable home from home with easy access to Suffolk coastal delights. School desk in kitchen brought back memories of 1940s ! Conservatory extension a welcome addition. Also appreciated availability of Netflix. Only recommendation is to ask cleaners to descale kettle - excessive build up not conducive to a good cuppa.
Little Chequers is perfectly located for discovering the beautiful surrounding areas. Lovely walks, close to local amenities. RSPB Minsmere and Dunwich are short drive away. Little Chequers has everything you need for a perfect stay.
This delightful property was perfect in every way. Very clean and comfortable. Pretty little garden and a lovely sun room. Well equipped for self catering but there is also a very good dog friendly pub within a very short walk. Short drive to the Suffolk coastline and the lovely towns of Aldeburgh and Southwold. Host very friendly and helpful.
This property is absolutely delightful. Lovely little garden. Everywhere was spotless and obviously lovingly furnished. Our second stay and hopefully there will be a third at sometime in the future.

A delightful weeks holiday
The house was delightful. Very well equipped kitchen, good heating and altogether ideal. Just beside is the Old Chequers pub, (run by Andy and Carol who are great fun), where we were made very welcome and excellent food.
Went into Aldeburgh twice, watching the crazy "swim" on Boxing Day, visited Southwold (getting even better) and also Snape.
Thank Toni for a great week.

Delightful
We loved staying in Little Chequers. I was unsure at first about booking a cottage in such a small village but we were delighted with everything. The cottage was a joy as was the little garden. I had some lovely walks around and about the village with our dog who also enjoyed the change of scenery. I would definitely recommend this cottage and location to anyone.
P.S. The website was also great. All very clear and no fuss!
Thanks

Lovely cottage
We really enjoyed our stay every thing we needed and in close proximity to so many interesting places. The pub next door was good for food tho check opening times cos they were closed more than the web site said (time of year). I would recommend this very comfortable cottage.
