SUFFOLK TOWN AND COUNTRY BROCHURE

South and Heart of Suffolk - A place for all seasons

Autumn, winter, spring or summer, there's always a warm welcome and a choice of places to enjoy in the South & Heart of Suffolk. Whatever the season, take a few days' break to re-charge your batteries and discover the delights of this lovely corner of England.

Suffolk's towns are shaped by hundreds of years of history. On a visit, discover Bury St Edmunds' beautiful cathedral with its recently-built tower, on the same spot where people have worshipped for over 1,000 years. See Lavenham's medieval houses and guildhall built during the town's heyday, and go to the races at Newmarket in the footsteps of 17th century kings and queens who brought their passion for horseracing to the town. In Ipswich see the iconic 1975 'Willis' building reflecting its surroundings in its curved black glass exterior, then step into the 21st century with a visit to the Waterfront and new university, or to Bury St Edmunds' new shopping centre.

Suffolk's country, with its big skies and open countryside, inspired Constable's paintings. Visit in all seasons and let the river valleys, lakes and forests inspire you too. Explore nature reserves to discover the fragile landscapes and wildlife of heathlands, brecks, fens and ancient woodland.

Choose a luxurious hotel in a medieval town or enjoy hospitality and a delicious Suffolk breakfast in one of their many excellent B&Bs. Bring your bike or walking boots and explore at you own pace from a cosy self-catering cottage.

Take your time, relax and discover the real nature of the South & Heart of Suffolk.
