Advertised as a B&B but is simply a tired worn out room with grubby bed coverings. This is a lovely old building needing a major face-lift!  I wore my sandals the entire time in the room as the carpet was worn and dirty looking.  Certainly not worth the money!

Not  a B&B!! No breakfast offered.

I spent 3 nights and overall had an enjoyable stay.The room was a good size, very clean, and the bed very comfy. Only slight disappointment was that the advertised fridge was not in the room; I was expecting this to keep drinks cold and for packed lunches.Check in was done online and very easy. Whilst this was quick and efficient it meant the personal touch was lacking and I did not see anyone else during my stay.Great location on the promenade with pubs, restaurants, and the station within walking distance.

Beautiful house with a beautiful view of the sea. 
Plenty of parking.
Room was clean but bathroom needs a thorough scrub.
Decor and furnishings are dated and a musty smell is very noticeable on the stairs.
Never saw any staff all the time we were there.


August break.

Excellent value for money, cracking location and clean, spacious functional room. Excellent breakfast over the road at the Thatch at reasonable cost. All good.

Historically interesting, the house was managed at a distance, with access via text message, etc. Most of the reviews related to a different period when breakfasts were served and people greeted you. Bed was comfy apart from one awkward spring, but because of the heat the place needed a really good airing with all the windows open for a while. The cleaning housekeeper was great, and ran after us with something we had left. Glad to visit and good value.

Impersonal, but good value. Visiting housekeeper

overall was very happy with room and amenities didnt realise was room only but the place across the road did very gd breakfast

Great little B&B in Lowestoft ideal for short business trips, the rooms and breakfast is a steal at £55. Worth every penny and views in a morning are great!! Peter

Good communication, was happy to facilitate us checking in earlier than normal.  Very friendly and lovely hosts.  We had the top left front room with a sea view which didn't disappoint.  The room had everything we needed and extra touches we didn't expect as standard, such as a fan and small fridge, and great little sofa and chairs.  
Breakfast was superb - top notch, nothing wrong at all, poached eggs were perfect.  We enjoyed sitting in the front window and watched the sun rise up from the sea at 7.30am which was lovely.
Anna and Colin were great too, very warm and friendly.

I can see why this place has the reviews it does, and if I have to travel down to Lowestoft with work again I will stay here.

If I had to make any suggestions at all, it would only be to consider installing a blackout blind behind the curtains to keep the room dark if it suited someone.

5/5 - great stay

Excellent stay, no complaints, highly recommend

After a long day of travelling and working I arrived at Britten House early evening. I was let in by Colin, shown my room, given all the details I needed, and even provided with some advice on the local area to inform my evening run. The room was spacious, clean, and had a nice two seater sofa. The bed is very soft which worried me as I'm used to firmer mattresses but I slept wonderfully and comfortably. Breakfast was really nice and cooked to my liking. If I am down that way again I will definitely be booking back in.

Lovely stay

Very welcoming and full of original features. Clean and comfortable .Superb breakfast that set us up for the day. Easy parking and lovely Seaview. The owners were friendly and very helpful. They have given the place a lot of thought to its origins to be proud of.

Initially didn't realise whose home it had been!  Sir Benjamin Brittens childhood home.
