The Darsham railway station is on the Ipswich to Lowestoft line which offers direct rail links into London Liverpool Street Station and there is a bus service into Saxmundham and Leiston with another service on the Southwold- Halesworth-Aldeburgh route. Darsham is close to the historic town of Southwold on the picturesque Heritage Coast which offers a wide range of leisure facilities, shops and the award winning pier.
