Well known as one of Suffolk’s wool towns and as a centre for antiques and art galleries, Long Melford lives up to its name with a three mile long main street that runs through the village.
The architecture is a happy mix of Tudor, Georgian and Victorian and residential houses sit alongside shops, hotels and cafes. The village has the added attraction of two historic houses (Kentwell and Melford Halls) which are open to the public, and a magnificent church, with concerts throughout the year.
