Location

Pembroke Road is one of Framlingham’s most popular locations and is situated in close proximity to the doctors’ surgery, Framlingham College and Thomas Mills High School.  It is also within walking distance of the amenities of the town, which benefits from a good selection of independent shops and businesses including cafés, restaurants, hairdressers, antique shops, a travel agency, nursery, vets and delicatessen.  Framlingham is also home to the Crown Hotel, Barclays Bank, a Co-operative supermarket and Robert Hitcham’s CEVA Primary School.  In recent years Framlingham has often featured as the number one place to live in the country and is perhaps best known for its magnificent castle.

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 in nearby locations such as Cretingham (6 miles), Woodbridge (12 miles) and Aldeburgh (13 miles).  The world famous Snape Maltings Concert Hall is nearby (10½ miles), and there is also bird watching at the RSPB centre at Minsmere (15 miles).  Framlingham is only 12 miles from the coast as the crow flies with easy access to the popular destinations of Southwold, Dunwich, Thorpeness and Orford.  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, scheduled to take just over the hour.

Directions

Heading into Framlingham on the B1116 from the direction of Parham, turn left at the mini roundabout and continue along the B1116 (College Road).  After approximately half a mile, turn left opposite Framlingham College onto Pembroke Road.  The property can be found half way along this road on the right hand side.  For those using the What3Words app: ///sings.wrist.uproot
