Saxmundham lies conveniently places about seven miles inland from the Suffolk Heritage Coastline at the pretty and unspoilt seaside town of Aldeburgh and about 25 miles north of the county town of Ipswich. For those with a leisure interest in mind, the area abounds with opportunities including nearby Saxmundham Sports Club, bird watching at the renowned RSPB Minsmere Reserve, walking in the areas of woodlands and forests at Dunwich and Rendlesham and cycling on the local leafy lanes. For music lovers the Snape Maltings Concert Hall is but a short drive away as is the Ricer Alde which provides some of the prettiest sailing waters on the East Coast.
