Now unique holiday accommodation, The House in the Clouds started life as a water tower in 1923 with water pumped from the nearby mill, but in 1977, was sold to private owners and renovated into this intriguing building.

Thorpness is set around The Meare, an artificial lake lined with colourful wooden boats.

With commanding views over Orford Ness, the castle stands 27m (90ft) tall and looks remarkably similar to when it was built over 700 years ago. The materials used to build the castle were brought from far and wide with some timbers coming from Scarborough and limestone from Caen in France. Legend has it the 'Wild Man of Orford' was held in the castle in the 12th century. Described as a merman he was captured by fisherman but eventually escaped.

Thorpeness Meare is a boating lake like no other. The lake with its islands and surrounds covers around sixty acres in total, with over forty acres of water. Reassuringly, nowhere in the lake is more than 3ft deep, so it provides a very safe boating environment. The islands were named by J.M Barrie, the creator of Peter Pan.

Lovely seaside town with long shingle beach and a decent high street parallel to the shoreline road.

Magnificent and well preserved medieval keep which dominates the village and surrounding coast.
