DAY ONE – Arrival

We depart from your home and travel to Ipswich in Suffolk, tea and coffee await you on arrival whilst your luggage is taken to your room.

 

DAY TWO – Woodbridge and Ipswich

This morning we drive to Woodbridge, a much-overlooked gem of a town just off the Suffolk Coast. This historic riverside market town boasts some of the very best restaurants, pubs, and shopping in the coastal area. The working tide mill is an attraction well worth a visit.

In the afternoon, we travel to Ipswich, England’s oldest continuously inhabited town, and home to world-class culture, food, and drink. Explore Ipswich at your own pace and be amazed by its many years of history.

 

DAY THREE – Lavenham and Bury St Edmunds

Our day takes us to Lavenham, one of the UK's most beautiful medieval villages located in the heart of Suffolk. We stop in the town where you can wander around its many independent stores and marvel at the unique architecture.

This afternoon we visit Bury St Edmunds. Take a stroll through history, treat yourself to some retail therapy, or simply explore and take in the peaceful atmosphere. Bury St Edmunds is a jewel in the crown of Suffolk and the perfect getaway to relax and reflect.

 

DAY FOUR – Aldeburgh and Southwold

We head through the countryside to Aldeburgh, another picturesque coastal town on the Suffolk coast. The town is well known for its shingle beach and fisherman huts. It boasts two fish & chip shops said to be among the best in the UK. A perfect place to enjoy lunch perhaps! Afterwards, we head to Southwold, a charming seaside town on the Suffolk Heritage Coast. The town is home to a working lighthouse, a cliff-top cannon, an award-winning pier, colourful beach huts, and a busy harbour – all of which combine to make Southwold a quintessentially English resort town.
