Southwold
Southwold is a charming north Suffolk seaside town on the Suffolk Heritage Coast. Almost an island, being bounded by the North Sea to the East, by the River Blyth and Southwold harbour to the South-West and by Buss Creek to the North, there is just the one road in to and out of Southwold.
The town offers much to do, but it is the sea and Southwold’s links with it that make this a wonderful place to visit. With its working lighthouse, beach huts, award-winning pier, busy harbour, cliff top cannon and of course the beach, Southwold is a quintessentially English resort town.
Whilst you’re there, why not book a tour of the famous Adnams brewery?

Thetford Forest
Located on the Norfolk/Suffolk border and owned by the Forestry Commission, Thetford Forest is a patchwork of pines, heathland and broadleaves providing the ideal setting for a day out, and a welcome refuge for a rich variety of animal and plant life.
It is a fantastic venue if you want to have a day’s bike riding (with on-site hire facilities from Bike-Art (01842 810090)) or walking and there is a Go-Ape there too.
Top music artists perform here regularly during the summer months. Check the Forestry Commission website for full details of upcoming gigs.
