Holiday Homes and Cottages Suffolk
A predominantly rural county lying on the south-east coast of England, bed and breakfasts and self catering holiday homes in Suffolk have been popular for many years with people seeking to escape from the crowded, hectic cities that exist in other areas of this corner of the country. A marked lack of sprawling urban environments contrasts with an abundance of peaceful, rolling countryside that has remained unchanged for centuries in East Anglia, and with a long, scenic coastline providing the ideal setting for many holiday rentals, Suffolk can still provide all the right ingredients for a relaxing break away from the noise, traffic and pressure of everyday life in a picturesque location in the country or beside the sea.
While it's long been habit and tradition for many residents of London and other cities across southern England to spend a fortnight in summer at bed and breakfasts in Suffolk, cottages, farmhouses and even barn conversions are now becoming amongst the most highly sought after types of rural holiday accommodation in Suffolk, not just for their rustic appeal but because a self catering option often provides greater flexibility when it comes to planning a big family vacation. And when there is so much for people of all ages and interests to see and do in this versatile area of East Anglia, it comes as no surprise that this county continues to offer the perfect solution to the kind of holiday the whole family will love...and that would apply even during the winter months!
History-lovers, in particular, will discover a destination that guarantees to fascinate and delight at any time of the year, as being in one of the oldest inhabited regions of England there are enough ancient archaeological and architectural sites to keep you busy enough that it won't matter whether the sun's hot enough for t-shirt and shorts or you'll need a hat and gloves to keep out the chill! While evidence of Roman, Bronze Age and Saxon settlements can be found littered across the entire county, and not just in the bigger towns of Ipswich or Bury St Edmunds, holiday homes in Suffolk can also offer an opportunity to explore an incredible natural heritage at the same time as you embark on a thorough investigation of its remarkable history.
The wetland habitats of The Broads and the Suffolk Coast and Heaths Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty are two big reasons why many nature-lovers regularly choose to return to the same holiday cottage in Suffolk year after year. With no shortage of unspoilt countryside between Lavenham in the west and Saxmundham in the east, and a coastline that begins at Lowestoft in the north and runs through charming coastal towns like Aldeburgh and Southwold on its way south to Felixstowe, there won't be much of your vacation spent inside your cottage rental in Suffolk when there is so much to enjoy in the great outdoors of East Anglia.
