Straddling the beautiful River Stour – and therefore both Suffolk and Essex too – Bures a lovely village. Its medieval church of St Mary the Virgin is a fine sight. Walkers can refuel at one of two pubs – the Three Horseshoes or the Eight Bells – and find accommodation at the Old Manse B&B.

Nayland is a characterful Suffolk village in the Dedham Vale Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. With its 15-century buildings, timber-framed houses and the pretty St James Church, there's a lot to admire. The church is home to 'Christ Blessing the Bread and Wine', one of John Constable's famous paintings.

Nice way. And not too crowded with people. Recommended.

There are a couple of decent pubs, plenty of places for food, shops, and more, making it a good choice for a pit-stop.
