From the wetland Broads to the stunning Heritage Coast, Suffolk
is packed with natural attractions and offers a rich heritage,
history and culture, lots of family fun and all kinds of
activities.
Coastal delights near your Suffolk cottage
Long, sandy beaches fringe Suffolk's coast - think sweeping
blue skies, flip-flops and sandcastles, al fresco dining and
traditional resorts such as Southwold, Aldeburgh, Dunwich Heath,
Snape and Felixstowe
oozing timeless appeal. Sea-based activities vary from fishing
trips and sailing to fast-paced rides on RIBs, plus bracing walks
along the coastal path.
Suffolk's two AONBs promise spectacular scenery, wonderful
wildlife, flora and fauna and plenty of outdoor pursuits. Cycle
routes range from quiet country lanes to free-wheeling along
off-road forest trails; there are miles of bridleways and countless
opportunities for walking, from leisurely strolls in Thetford
Forest Park and Needham Lake Nature Reserve to serious rambles
along Suffolk's inspiring shoreline.
For history and heritage, our Suffolk cottages score top marks.
