ヒントルシャムの湖・トップ8

Lemons Hill Bridge carries the road across the northern end of Alton water reservoir. It links the two parts of Tattingstone village.

As with much of Suffolk. Polstead Pond is another gem worthy of a detour

Dunwich Dynamo feed stop - featured a coffee truck, and 3 food vendors. Long queues at 3am but much needed caffeine and extra snack as the temperatures dropped. There are toilets here.

The name Polstead means place by the pool. The benches by the village pond are a great spot to rest and enjoy the peace of a classic Suffolk village, surrounded by history, and picture perfect timber-framed and thatched cottages.

Dedham Therapy Farm is a tranquil retreat in the Suffolk countryside, offering therapeutic activities and programs to promote mental health and well-being. Whilst you cannot actually enter the farm without appointment, you can still stroll by and enjoy the animal interactions.

It’s a pleasant enough spot for a quick stop if the weather’s decent but one of Visit England’s top attractions? I find that hard to believe for a glorified duck pond in an old gravel pit next to a railway line!

The best view of the upper part of Alton Water. A wide, fast descent to the bridge from either direction with a short climb out.
