Holiday Cottages Suffolk

Here's what you can see and do when staying at one of our Suffolk holiday cottages.

Suffolk is possibly rural England at its very best and the perfect location for cottage holidays. It has mile after mile of gently undulating countryside, ideal for exploration on foot or by bike and a coastline dotted with family holiday resorts. Wherever you wander from your cottage Suffolk, its stunning landscapes, historic wool towns and many hidden gems wait to be discovered.

Lavenham was one of the wealthiest towns in England in medieval times, and has retained an almost perfect medieval market square and many half-timbered houses along streets whose patterns remain largely unchanged from medieval times. Nearby is Long Melford, another village whose wealth was derived from the wool trade and which boasts the longest high street in the country. Bury St Edmunds is an historic market town in the west of the county. At one time this part of Suffolk boasted more pubs than churches. The number has dwindled over the years but the Greene King Brewery and Visitor Centre, where visitors can learn about the history of some of the country's best-loved beers, remains.

From our selection of holiday cottages Suffolk and some of the county's best kept coastal secrets, like the towns of Aldeburgh and Southwold, can be explored. Aldeburgh is a charming, traditional seaside town and the perfect location for enjoyable Suffolk cottage holidays. Its unspoilt nature calls to mind an earlier age. Here the fishermen still draw their boats up onto the shore and sell fish from the beach. However Aldeburgh is also internationally famous for its association with the Festival begun by Benjamin Britten. The newest addition to the Aldeburgh seafront is the Scallop, a Maggi Hambling sculpture dedicated to Benjamin Britten. Surrounded by peaceful countryside and award-winning beaches bordering on salt marshes, and with large areas of woodland sweeping down to the shore the resort of Southwold is a haven from the demands of modern society.

In summary, Suffolk holiday cottages offer the perfect base for exploring this delightful county. A popular destination for those seeking to stay in holiday cottages Suffolk offers the chance to enjoy the best of the coast and inland.
