We are so pleased you enjoyed your stay in Chestnutt Cottage and that you not only enjoyed the many lovely walks Southwold offers, but made full use of the beach hut too. We, as you do, love the Suffolk skies - by day and by night . We are pleased you managed to resolve the TV problem successfully and are very grateful to Dianne, in Hughes in Southwold High Street. for being so helpful when, as it turned out, the TV needed retuning after an update on the transmitter.
