In an area as steeped in history as the Suffolk Coast, it takes something special to stand out. Dunwich manages to do just this. Known as the lost city of England, this tiny village certainly has a story to tell.

Dating back to Anglo-Saxon times, Dunwich once stood proud as the capital of the Kingdom of the Eastern Angles, at its mightiest matching 14th century London for size. It was a seat of power for the Anglo-Saxon bishops for centuries, an international port, and the Domesday book of 1086 puts the population at over 3000.

The little village of Dunwich was once a thriving seaport; but over the centuries the sea reclaimed the town leaving not much behind except for a wonderful stretch of beach. This expanse of shingle seems to go on forever in both directions, backed by low crumbling cliffs.

Dunwich beach is set in a break between the cliffs where the road literally ends on the beach. Here you will find a number of small boats pulled up on the sand and a the National Trust tearoom.
In fact, the National Trust own the beach and much of the surrounding countryside including Dunwich Heath which runs along the coast. This whole area is teeming with wildlife which thrive in these rare habitats.

Just a short drive from Dunwich you will find RSPB Minsmere. Here you can spend a day spotting some the UKs rarest birds and wildlife including the Avocet, Bittern, Otter and Red Deer.

Sandy Lodge - Detached Seaside House with amazing views.

5/5 Excellent

Perfect Seaside Stay

"Sandy Lodge was a perfect stay for us and our besties. Perfectly located between the town and harbour, we had no need to move the cars after our arrival. The house is quirky, bright, airy and sun- filled. The lovely garden with two places to sit has wonderful views across the matshes to the common and Southwold. The beds were really comfortable and the house was spotlessly clean. One note ( and this is fussiness - lined curtains would be great in the bedrooms as we were woken early by the bright sunshine (world’s smallest violin in operation!) and nicer pillows. Otherwise perfect and we would certainly stay again. Thank you."
