Location
13  and 15  Station Road are located in the centre of Framlingham and within walking distance of the market hill.  The thriving town centre is home to a good selection of independent shops and businesses including cafés, restaurants, hairdressers, antique shops, a travel agency and delicatessen.  It is home to the Crown Hotel and a Co-operative supermarket.  Off Market Hill are a number of other businesses providing day-to-day services including pubs, vets, a medical centre and schools.  Sir Robert Hitcham’s Primary School is highly regarded and Thomas Mills High School is considered one of the best state schools in the East of England.  The town also benefits from various clubs including Framlingham Football Club.  The town has previously been voted the number one place to live in the country and is perhaps best known for its magnificent castle which is managed by English Heritage.  

Framlingham is surrounded by delightful villages, many of which have popular public houses.  There are lovely walks from Framlingham into the surrounding countryside, and amenities such as golf courses in Woodbridge (12 miles) and Aldeburgh (13 miles). The world famous Snape Maltings Concert Hall is within easy reach (10.5miles).  There is bird watching at the RSPB centre at Minsmere (15 miles).  Framlingham is only a short drive from the coast, with popular destinations such as Southwold, Dunwich, Thorpeness and Orford. There is a local train station from Wickham Market (Campsea Ashe) which is approximately 5 miles.  The county town of Ipswich lies approximately 18 miles to the south-west and from here there are regular services to London’s Liverpool Street Station, scheduled to take just over the hour.
