Breakfast in the sunshine is always a fantastic start to the day, so why not dine alfresco in the courtyard? Orford is a village located alongside the River Alde, and you can enjoy the views across the river and the bay beyond with countryside walks or try out a lady Florence River Cruise. There is a selection of pubs, a local shop and eateries within the town, but the main highlight has to be the magnificent Orford castle, where picnics in the grounds with a view to the historic building are a must. A little further from the property you will find the seaside village of Aldeburgh, where you will be able to sample local produce as well as enjoy beachside strolls, watersports and even wild swimming!
