Set among rolling countryside, the town centre is situated only a couple of minutes away from the development. Consisting of market squares and winding streets, Beccles contains a number of independent shops, cafes and restaurants. Home to everything from designer fashion stores to delicatessens, so there's lots to see and do. 

The River Waveney is the real star of the town, and these placid waterways are a great way to spend an afternoon. Day boats can all be hired, but a skippered boat provides the perfect way to explore the surroundings. 

For anyone looking to stay active, Beccles Lido is the place to be in the summer months. As well as having plenty of paved and grassy places to enjoy the summer sun and watch the world go by, there's also a heated outdoor swimming pool.
