Grand Tour of Suffolk

Real English treasures line this flexible, self-guided circular bike tour around the secret county of Suffolk, near London.

Rolling country landscapes immortalised by painters, Constable and Gainsborough; medieval half-timbered villages with thatched cottages and mighty flint churches; historic river valleys; coastal towns changed by the sea over the centuries – you’ll cycle through them all, at a gentle pace on mainly little lanes.

Highlights include Sutton Hoo Anglo-Saxon ship burial, eccentric Ickworth House, elegant Southwold resort, and abbey town, Bury St Edmunds.
