Neighbourhood
In the village there is a play park with zip wire, obstacle course, climbing frame anbd swings. The village pub is famous for its food and is worth a visit! Within 15 minute walk outside the village there is 24hour Tesco, Costa, McDonalds, B&M and PizzaHut. Within 20 minutes drive there are many farms and petting zoos, as well as beaches and countryside walks. There is a fantastic Turkish restaurant/takeaway 5 minutes away as well as a very good Chinese and Indian takeaway.
Getting to my home
Easy access to A14 and A12 for easy driving access. 10minute Taxi from Ipswich railway station and about an hour from Stansted airport and similar distance from Norwich airport. Just over an hour via train into central London with a well served line.
45min drive from Harwich International Port with ferry’s to Hook of Holland.
Nearest airport
Stansted Airport is about an hour, l and so is Norwich.
Getting around
Shops and park and ride within walking distance, manageable without a car, but car would make it easier!
