Places to go in Suffolk

With vast countryside, lush valleys, river-ways, woods and coastline, Suffolk is the place to get away from it all. Bury St Edmunds offers undeniable elegance, with Georgian architecture, landscaped abbey gardens, and a growing reputation for excellent food. Extending for 50 miles, the Suffolk Coast includes seaside towns such as Dunwich, Southwold and Thorpeness. Designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, it’s alive with interest and inspiration for days out.

Things to do in Suffolk

With so much of the Suffolk coast to explore, you could choose to see it best with a scenic boating or sailing trip. Or, if you’re looking for something more active, you can dip into a range of activities, from sailing and paddle boarding to canoeing and kayaking. And, with some of East Anglia’s most scenic and well-kept courses, Suffolk is also a great destination for a golfing break (enjoy a round at Fynn Valley near Ipswich or take advantage of the championship course at Bury St Edmunds Golf Club).
