Marsh Farm - sleeps 18
Marsh Farm is situated just a few minutes drive from the Broads, a National Park area where
there are lots of opportunities for boating and walking.
With the old beams and inglenook fireplaces, this Grade II
listed farmhouse is a top-of-the-range holiday property - spacious
and comfortable and absolutely ideal for an extended family, group
of friends or as a wedding accommodation.
Marsh Farm has separate
outside sitting areas with views over the meadows of the Waveney Valley.
It is quite close to the village of Ellough with its ancient church,
the site of a heathen temple of the Norsemen (elgr was the Norse word
for temple).
Just 3 miles from the imposing tower of the ancient church at Beccles,
whose street names, Saltgate, Northgate, Smallgate and Hungate hint
at the fortifications which once surrounded the town, Beccles is now
home to an excellent range of restaurants, shops and pubs, their Georgian
facades disguising many of its ancient buildings which nestle along
the banks of the lower Waveney river.
For those seeking some culture The Old Granary Studio,
Toft Monks, Beccles is a beautiful venue where you can enjoy a variety
of musical offerings, occasionally with dinner. In summer one can picnic
in the lovely gardens. Theatres and concert halls well worth a visit
include the newly restored Fisher Theatre in Bungay, the Cut in Halesworth
and the Snape Maltings Concert Hall, near Aldeburgh. No visit will
be complete without a visit to Suffolk's Heritage coastline encompassing
Lowestoft's Blue Flag beach, genteel Southwold and Dunwich.
