A fascinating museum run by knowledgeable volunteers who are passionate about the site's history and have countless experiences to share. The site truly is a hidden gem and worth making a visit to see, the museum is free to enter with a cafe and can be supported by donations.

There are various trails around Knettishall. Last time we followed the river walk. This time we followed the woodland. Wherever you go this is a truly beautiful area with river, heathland, woods and its easy to walk a long way without seeing a soul. A must see for anyone in the area.

Redgrave and Lopham Fen

Reviewed By M670AJterryl - Telford, United Kingdom

Visited here with friends for a delightful walk through unspoilt countryside with a unique atmosphere. A gentle stroll will take you through a huge variety of walks, all showcasing the very special Suffolk/Norfolk flora and fauna. Very informative walk-guide cards at the car park meant we set out with high hopes, and we did actually see the fabulous Fen Raft Spider! A great afternoon...

Diss Mere

Reviewed By 713rytal

This is a delightful place to visit after the busyness of the town centre. To sit & dream watching the wildlife, was an act of complete relaxation. The town is full of wonderful architecture and a well attended market is in progress on a Friday. A local cafe nearby opposite Boots the chemist, serves delicious bacon rolls & paninis reasonably priced as well as good coffee and hot chocolate. We must support these local businesses to keep them going in these strange times.

I enjoy a good pint. The landlord keeps his ales very well, having spoken to him I understand he regularly has guest ales - I enjoyed pints of Landlord and Doombar. I also enjoyed a lovely scampi dinner. Kindest regards, Callum (stayed in clematis room)
