Town: The quaint village of Haughley is nestled in the sought-after English county of Suffolk, a stone's throw away from the vibrant market town of Stowmarket. Steeped in history, the village was named in the Domesday Book, and was once home to neolithic, pagan, Iron Age, Roman and Saxon settlements. The streets of the pretty village are decorated with traditional thatched cottages as well as a delicious takeaway, local country pub and a well-stocked convenience store, providing everything to cater for your self-catering needs! The medieval Haughley Castle towers above the village, dating back to the 11th century and built in a striking motte and bailey design. Within easy reach is the town of Stowmarket, the largest town in Mid Suffolk, home to a host of amenities along with a range of fun-filled attractions including the Museum of East Anglian Life and the Gipping Valley River Path; a lovely spot for a scenic stroll. Further afield are the bustling towns of Bury St Edmunds and Ipswich, both full to the brim of things to see and do and well worth a visit. Explore the delights of Suffolk with a retreat to Haughley.
