A Pleasant Peaceful Site

We like Raydon Hall. It's an extremely quiet site with peaceful views of farmland with sheep, etc (which suits us fine) and a short walk (10 mins) from Orford itself with its quay, boats, castle, church, etc. There is a great pub in the village (The Jolly Sailor) which has been revitalised by new owners and which sells good meals and excellent take-away fish & chips at certain times. There is also a well-stocked traditional rural village store where the prices are very reasonable, togehter with a coffee shop, etc. Orford Castle is well worth a visit with stunning views from the top. Access to other areas of the Suffolk coast such as Aldeburgh, Dunwich, Walberswick, Lowestoft, Southwold, etc., and in the other direction the Felixstowe area is very reasonable by car bearing in mind the essentially rural nature of the area. Ipswich is within easy reach by car. We have returned after our initial visit - and will return again. Owners appear very 'hands-off', which suits us fine. If you want to get away from it all for some peace and quiet, you could do far worse than consider Raydon Hall. Booking is recommended, especially during the main season as its 'regulars' frequently return. Access with the van is quite reasonable.
