Plus maybe dogwalker or Morte as visitors but not included in accommodation?

June is lovely in Southwold and lots to do, but big enough houses go quick.
Sept is still nice but maybe not so much to do? If we go for Sept would it make sense to perhaps pick somewhere else, maybe closer to a city or more central like Oxford?

Anon! I would love to go to London!!

Sachat - awesome . You’ve been there before and I haven’t so you can lead the way.   You should know,,,I am very old, unlike you.   In fact you would likely be the youngest of all and I will be the oldest of all.  I still get around pretty good though .

If it’s June, a decision has to be made really soon and a house booked.  There aren’t many big houses and the ones there are have limited availability in June but Sept is still pretty open.

Sept should also be good for me
Cheers DW

Hahaha. I’m used to be the youngest so I can cope with that. I have been a few times I must admit but I always find there is LOADS to do and it’s always good to recreate bad memories.

I feel that June is too soon. It's putting a lot of pressure on us all to make decisions, and it's possible that some readers haven't even had a chance to see the thread yet.

As far as having less to do in September, I don't think that would be too much of a problem. Although people coming from across the ocean do like to sightsee every day, not everyone does, and if it's a lovely location, just walks are outings, fresh air and sea air can make up for places to go?  The local towns are cute to see aren't they? Cambridge is stunning, London is a train ride away if someone wants to go for the day. I'm sure there are other things, too. Aren't there lovely old English cheese villages around there, Treasur? I don't know why but cheese comes to my mind. And pretty Miss Marple villages with tea rooms and antique shops? I seem to remember that.

Oh, and I think it's perfectly fine if we don't want to do a whole week but just a few days, too. Or if some UK dwellers just want to meet for a day. A week is great if people can manage it though. We needed it on the Tuscany trip.

[Anon]

A week definitely was not too long for Tuscany.   I think we also had a good balance of sightseeing and relaxing at the villa days.  I'd like to go for a week again,,, or at least 5 days.   Anything else and it's a rushed visit, imo.  Just get settled in, and next thing you know it's time to pack up and leave again.

If I can do the full week by all means I will do but I may be the youngest but I don’t know if I have the staying power like I used too hahaha! But the amount of time I’m child free is the time you’ve all got me.

I’m looking forward to putting faces to names and seeing if you look like how I imagine you too haha!
