Playa Dunwich Heath and Beach: Tours y Actividades

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.

Amazing clouds over Dunwich beach, Suffolk.
The mystical glow that radiates from barn owls when the moonlight illuminates the golden hue of its feathers is truly breathtaking. #barnowl #wildlife #birdsofprey #birds #nature #uk #england #britain
Dunwich beach is a delightful shingle beach with a few fishing huts and a friendly cafe. Head north up the coast and you can walk to the Walberswick marshes, look out for birdlife and an abandoned windmill. #BeachTips

It would be useful to have a leaflet in the room informing of bus times to and from the airport and a better idea of where it is possible to eat. Information can be updated every day if, for example, the nearest eatery is closed, as it was during my visit. There needs to be better acoustic insulation between rooms.
