Where To Visit During Your Stay
Long Melford
A former medieval wool town – Long Melford’s wide, tree-lined village street is the country’s longest. It is lined with fine buildings housing antique shops, art galleries and designer boutiques. The large green is dominated by
16th C. Melford Hall and the stunning church. Nearby Kentwell Hall is renowned for its Tudor re-creations.
During the 1980s and 90s, Long Melford gained fame as the setting for the BBC television series Lovejoy. However, the village boasts many other cultural connections.
Renowned writer Daniel Defoe, author of Robinson Crusoe, visited Long Melford and mentioned it in his book A Tour thro' the Whole Island of Great Britain.
The Bull Hotel in Long Melford appears in the BBC documentary The World of John and Yoko and has also featured in films such as Witchfinder General and The Wind in the Willows. Additionally, the frontage of Kentwell Hall was digitally incorporated into The Chronicles of Narnia.
Lavenham
With its Tudor houses, crooked half-timbered cottages, and impressive 15th-century Wool Church, it’s no surprise that Lavenham has served as a backdrop for TV and films, including Lovejoy and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1.
Renowned as England’s best-preserved medieval village and one of Suffolk’s historic wool towns, Lavenham is a dream to explore, offering some of the most picturesque streets in the country.
Step back in time at the stunning timber-framed Lavenham Guildhall, admire the grandeur of St Peter and St Paul Church, and visit the charming Little Hall, home to the fascinating Gayer-Anderson collection of artwork and artifacts.
As you wander, don’t miss The Crooked House on Lavenham High Street—one of the world’s most photographed homes, said to have inspired the nursery rhyme There Was a Crooked Man!
Bury St Edmunds
ChatGPT said:
Surrounded by picturesque countryside and steeped in 1,000 years of history, Bury St Edmunds is the resting place of Saint Edmund, the original patron saint of England.
During medieval times, The Abbey of St Edmund was one of the wealthiest and most powerful Benedictine monasteries in England, drawing visitors from across Europe to St Edmund's Shrine. Although the Abbey was dissolved in 1539, the mystery of Edmund’s final resting place remains—many believe he is still buried somewhere within the Abbey precincts.
Known as Suffolk's Foodie Capital, Bury St Edmunds boasts everything from award-winning fine dining to hearty Suffolk pub classics, each offering its own unique atmosphere. Beer enthusiasts can explore the legacy of Greene King, which has been brewing here for over 200 years.
The town also offers an excellent shopping experience, blending independent boutiques with popular High Street brands. Beyond shopping, visitors can enjoy beautiful outdoor spaces and a thriving arts scene, including theatre, live music, film, and art.
