Beautiful little cabin property, set within gorgeous gardens that are moments from Orford Quay, Pinneys, and the rest of Orford town. Would definitely stay again.

Lovely location right by the quay

The location of this property is great - right by the quay in Orford, with access to a lovely garden. The property is small but has everything you need and felt very cosy.

Beautiful cosy property right on the quay

Lovely property ideal for two in the picturesque village of Orford. Great pubs and cafe in easy walking distance and a must for anybody who lives being close to the water.

Perfectly Pint-sized!

Small but perfectly formed garden apartment. Clean, well equipped, quiet, comfortable and with the added bonus of the owner's two dogs - Poppet and Freddo - on hand to provide entertainment.

A little slice of heaven

We had such a lovely Easter break at Shallow End. The perfect place for peace and quiet. Judith & Mike were lovely too. Orford is a gorgeous area and we enjoyed walking and eating. Our dog had a great time too. We’ll definitely be back.

The Shallow End

It’s basically one room with a separate shower/toilet. Set in nice garden of private house next to the estuary. Excellent location. Warm. Quite clean but not completely clean. Modern interior. Very awkward negotiating the heavy flood gate every time we arrived and left. Not for the frail or those with mobility issues. No welcome milk or biscuits. No shampoo In shower. £70 extra for cleaning is excessive to say the least. Overall, a little expensive for the accommodation and the fixtures/kitchen utensils could have been better. Good position and fairly private.
