If only the time-worn walls of Orford Castle could talk! But seeing they can't, check if tours are available to hear a couple of its stories instead.

Located in Woodbridge, this fortified complex is well worth including on your itinerary. But you'll find a great deal more to see and do in this area. Snape Maltings, Rendlesham Forest Centre, and Orford Ness National Nature Reserve aren't too far away from Orford Castle.

8.8/10 Excellent! (827 reviews)
I wanted to stay in a place that had history and felt uniquely English. This is why I picked Marygreen Manor. The garden was beautiful, the history was interesting, the staff were wonderful, the food was delicious, and the beds were so comfortable. I enjoyed having coffee on the lawn. It was so peaceful.

Didn’t feel price was right from two rooms stayed in and no breakfast had to pay. And wasn’t felt welcomed when when arrived for breakfast.

The South American Puna Flamingo is also known as James's Flamingo (so named for Harry Berkeley James) and Lesser Andean Flamingo. It received its common name "Puna" from its natural habitat - "puna" is the local word for high Andean plateau. The flamingo's characteristic pink / salmon-colored plumage is caused by their beta carotene-rich diet. The Puna Flamingos occur on the high Andean plateaus of Peru, Chile, Bolivia and Argentina where they usually occur at altitudes of over 3,000 m
