The village of Friston lies in a beautiful rural location with its very own popular pub “The Old Chequers” together with active village church and village hall. Friston is the perfect base for visiting some of Suffolk’s most popular towns and villages such as the charming market town of Saxmundham, the pretty coastal town of Aldeburgh, and the 'must-visit' destination of Snape. The surrounding villages and towns offer plenty of shops, bars, cafes, and cinemas and Friston is within close proximity to the world-famous Bird Sanctuary at Minsmere.
Saxmundham offers excellent access by rail and road to many of the popular places to visit along the coast, Aldeburgh is nestled on the river Alde which enjoys breath-taking views both seawards and following the river Alde inland towards Orford, and Snape offers beautiful countryside walks and is home to the renowned Snape Maltings which also provides fantastic river walks and river tours with the River Alde at the Maltings being a haven for birdlife with its expansive estuary.
