The Village of Peasenhall
Tipple Cottage is a sanctuary of calm, just two minutes from the bustling harbour front of Wells-next-the-Sea.
Nestled in the heart of the Suffolk countryside, Peasenhall is a small village that oozes timeless charm and tranquility. Surrounded by rolling hills, lush fields, and ancient woodlands, it feels like a haven untouched by the hurried pace of the modern world.
The village's main street is flanked by quaint cottages adorned with ivy-covered facades and colourful flower boxes. Each dwelling seems to tell a story, their architecture a blend of centuries-old charm and subtle renovations. Stone fences border lush gardens, where roses and hollyhocks bloom in a riot of colours.
Dunwich - Always an inspiring visit, whatever the time of year. Great for a summer swim with its beach cafe and toilets. (Grandad Ernie’s favourite destination for seaside fish and chips.)
Alderburgh - A beautiful Georgian seaside town with a host of independent shops and galleries.
Southwold - is a busy market town, home of Adnams Brewery and the Pier with a great sandy beach with all the amenities you need for a family day out. Park near the cricket field and wander through town collecting your picnic along the way.
Thorpeness - A picture postcard coastal village set around a boating lake that children will love, with little islands named after places from Peter Pan. Look out for the fairytale house in the clouds alongside the tea room, pub and antiques centre.
Warbleswick - Two great pubs for a quick drink before crabbing of the quay and a row boat over to huts on the other side of the inlet for fish and chips
RSPB Minsmere - The beautiful coastal area is part of the Suffolk Coast and Heaths Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and there are some stunning walks which take in the scenery along with opportunities for bird and wildlife watching.
Snape Maltings - sitting on the bank of the River Alde, surrounded by an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty the concert hall is closely associated with the music of Benjamin Britten. Combining this and various luxury retail outlets this is a must see destination.
Framlingham - Travelling inland this town is dominated by the Castle and has a busy market square and a number of independent shops
