Southwold's model yacht pond, and the regattas held there every summer, typifies the appeal of Southwold and area for family holidays. Beach, sea, countryside and lovely Suffolk skies!

Undine

The Forgotten Gardens of Easton Lodge.

Stone lady,
Why look so downcast?
Is he there
But taking no notice?
Is it your nakedness
Before entering the water?
Is it your drapery.
Concealing as you emerge?

Only stand
And he will notice you.

Look up.
You could be lovely!
