The hilltop castle is worth visiting for spectacular views of the area.

Just had a great week away here. Very touristy, but a great base for visiting other places in the area. Plus good beaches and great weather.

Stayed at this grand if faded coaching inn right on Sunday night. Good location: right in the heart of Bury St Edmunds, opposite the Abbey Gate. We turned up on the offchance that they might have rooms, and we somehow managed to get upgraded to suites, at bargain discount rates. Had a good hearty breakfast, with tasty local sausages, though they take away the fruit salad slightly too early (or perhaps we got up slightly too late… hmm…)
