ブルームでののおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

A hidden cycle-friendly venue! Fronts directly on to the high street but there is space for bikes at the back. Open 10am-4.30pm Mon-Sat.

Remains of a small ruined castle, mainly an impressive gatehouse and some adjoining curtain wall. In private ownership so not accessible.

Impressive landmark building rising above the marshes, now the home of an excellent cafe (komoot.com/highlight/6057575).

Excellent artisan coffee and tasty cakes. Cycle-friendly, with open level access and outdoor seating. The cycle rail is a bit high off the ground though: my bike was swinging in the wind!

Mettingham Castle is a fortified manor house that was created in the 14th Century. Given to monks to create a college, after the dissolution of the monasteries it was sold into private hands. From here, you can see the Gatehouse only, but it's in very good condition thanks to English Heritage. You can't get close to the building, but it's an impressive site nonetheless.

The village of Earsham nestles within a meander of the River Waveney, to the west of the market town of Bungay. Its historic Queen's Head pub operated as a coaching inn in the mid-19th century and is still going today, with a range of real ales, ciders and craft beers. The Angles Way long-distance trail passes through the village.

With its fine 14th-century tower and impressive spire, All Saints Church is a pretty sight on the edge of Earsham. Two named trails pass the church: Bigod's Way, a 5.5-mile (9 km) loop from Bungay; and the Angles Way, a long-distance trail that follows the River Waveney from the sea at Great Yarmouth to its source, before tracing the Little Ouse to Thetford.

Bridge Street is a pretty and colourful little street that leads from the heart of Bungay to the River Waveney. The characterful Chequers Inn is one of the oldest buildings in the town and dates from the 17th century. The pub serves good local ale and has a beer garden.
