| For many visitors to Suffolk, the village of Ipswich is a must-see highlight. This historic spot is thought to be one of England’s oldest towns and the local architecture, some of which dates back 800 years, is fascinating in itself and well worth a host of photographs. Most people who make the journey to Ipswich place a tour of Christchurch Mansion at or near the top of their itinerary. This 1548 structure is notable for the art collection it houses, as well as its own beautiful architecture. Ipswich’s waterfront is another site not to be missed. With a thriving arts and culture scene, the waterfront is worthy of hours of exploration.
Many tourists also include Bury St. Edmunds on their itinerary. A thriving market town, Bury St. Edmunds delights visitors with its broad range of attractions and activities. Those who love beer will not want to miss a tour of the Greene King Brewery and Visitor Centre, while gardening enthusiasts should be certain to visit the Abbey Gardens. An art gallery, unique shops, and convivial pubs and restaurants also await visitors to Bury. A number of annual festivals are held throughout the year, adding their own special attraction to this already fascinating city.
Visitors wishing to enjoy an active getaway typically find time to explore Brandon. The Weeting Heath National Nature Reserve is a major attraction in the area for those who enjoy watching birds and other wildlife. In nearby Thetford Forest, active visitors will enjoy the offerings at the High Lodge Visitor Centre where they can indulge in such diverse pastimes as mountain biking and hiking and challenge themselves on the Go Ape high ropes course.
For some people, no vacation is complete without some time spent at the seashore. Suffolk is gifted with the lovely seaside town of Southwold, home to smooth stretches of ocean beaches and also forested land that is covered with the hush of enchantment. This charming village is small, yet lively, and visitors are warmly welcomed at any time of year. Development here has been slow and careful, meaning that Southwold holds an old-fashioned, timeless aspect that is especially relaxing for harried modern day travelers.
