My husband's family came from Pakefield and were involved in the local herring trade - his grandparents got married in the lovely medieval church opposite the house! We have kept coming back to the area for wonderful family holidays by the seaside and I hope you will also have a wonderful stay by the Suffolk Coast!
Born in the Netherlands, I now live in London with my husband & 4 children. Besides that, around 100,000 honeybees, 15 gardens, an allotment and a weekly church toddler group of 30 keep me entertained!
Sat atop a cliff and with a panoramic view out to the North Sea, Pakefield is a quaint suburb of Lowestoft with an identity that is all its own. Echoes of Pakefield’s maritime past are all around, from the little fishermen’s cottages to the diminutive 19th century lighthouse..The majority of the coast south of Pakefield is undeveloped and forms the Suffolk Coast and Heaths Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Pakefield is at the northern end of the Suffolk Coast Path. Suffolk is characterized by its large skies and small villages of pastel coloured houses nestling amongst large swathes of agricultural, forest and heathland. The area is amongst the driest in the UK
A short drive takes you to the picturesque towns of Southwold, Walberswick and Aldeburgh, as well as the famous RSPB site of Minsmere and Dunwich Heath (National Trust). Local attractions include Pleasurewood Hills in Lowestoft and Africa Alive (zoo) in Pakefield. Norwich with its shops and historic attractions is within easy reach by car or train. Oulton Broad, 2 miles, offers excellent facilities for boat trips on the Norfolk Broads. There are two small supermarkets within walking distance in Pakefield, as well as take-aways and pharmacy. Several local pubs just around the corner.
