Peppers Place is located in a tucked away position in the heart of Pettaugh, a small rural village just 2½ miles south of the larger village of Debenham and 10 miles north of the county town of Ipswich. Debenham benefits from well regarded primary and high schools, along with a small Co-Op supermarket, hardware store, grocery store, doctors, vets, butchers, café, sports centre and other local shops and services.  

The market town of Stowmarket is within 9 miles and offers Tesco, Asda and Lidl supermarkets, as well as a variety of other shops, services and restaurants, including a train station with mainline rail services to London’s Liverpool Street that are scheduled to take under an hour and a half.

Suffolk’s Heritage Coast with destinations such as Aldeburgh, Thorpeness, Orford and Southwold is approximately 23 miles from the property.
