Full of history and character, Lavenham just calls out to be explored. It is a wonderfully well preserved medieval village and in its heyday was once of the 20 most wealthiest in the country. Evidence of this is clear throughout the village. There are lots of places to stop to eat and drink or to stay if you are looking for a few days away in Suffolk.

Exceptionally well-preserved medieval architecture, unique timber-framed buildings, and rich history as a wealthy wool town. Visitors can explore historic sites like the Lavenham Guildhall and Little Hall. There over 340 grade listed buildings
