Albion
House, which was originally two cottages built in 1890,
is situated next door to the Old Mill where Benjamin Britten
wrote Peter Grimes and many other works. The house, which is
opposite the Village Hall, is a short stroll from Snape Maltings
concert hall, home of the Aldeburgh Festival, Snape Proms and
the Britten Festival. Opera, jazz, literary and poetry festivals are
presented in and around Snape and Aldeburgh throughout all the seasons.
The
house, which is owned by two friendly writers and their cheerful cocker
spaniel, has a lovely garden that overlooks open fields and farm land
and is wonderfully located for exploring the Suffolk Heritage Coastline.
Our part of Suffolk is set within an area of outstanding natural beauty
that offers a variety of pursuits for visitors. There is bird-watching,
sailing, golf, cycling, angling and glorious river and estuary walks
- or you can simply relax on the beach at Aldeburgh, which is a ten-minute
drive from Snape. A picturesque seaside town, Aldeburgh has an
award-wining fish-and-chip shop, excellent restaurants, antique and
craft shops, art galleries, supermarket and two delicatessens and
its own cinema. There is also a golf club and yachting club close
to the town centre.
The
B&B accommodation provided throughout all the seasons is inclusive
of breakfast.
