THE CASTLE ON THE HILL &

SUFFOLK VILLAGES DAY TOUR

Follow in the footsteps of some of our most famous stars

Experience the beauty of Ed Sheeran’s hometown, see the infamous Castle on the Hill and sample some classic British sweets.

Britain is home to many famous faces. While many tours will take you to places like Abbey Road or the Westend, this tour will take you somewhere a little bit different. 

 

Our first stop is Framlingham, the quaint Suffolk town where Ed Sheeran hails from. If you’re lucky, you may even catch a glimpse of him out and about the local pubs and shops of the town. 

 

We’ll take you on a short walking tour of Framlingham, followed by a visit to the famous 12th century Castle on the Hill. While lunch isn't included in this tour, you’ll have ample time to grab some food from the local shops, a picnic blanket from the City to Coast team and have a picnic on the famous hill. You can even visit Ed’s favourite fish and chip shop (just ask us for the details!). 

 

We’ll then make our way to the village of Lavenham, home to the iconcily unique 15th century crooked houses. Lavenham was the location for John Lennon and Yoko Ono’s film Apotheosis and some famous buildings from Godric's Hollow.

 

While in Lavenham, we'll visit the Swan Hotel, a step back in time to an American airmen's bar, where you can read messages written by the men who drank there during World War II.

 

And finally, we'll end the day with traditional English tea and scones in a crooked house.
