Felixstowe | Felixstowe Ferry | Bawdsey| Hollesley| Orford | Snape
The route from Felixstowe to Snape takes one through an area of outstanding natural beauty.
From Felixstowe head for Felixstowe Ferry, a small hamlet next to the ferry itself. Do stop at the Ferry Cafe before taking the ferry to Bawdsey. One passes Bawdsey Manor where radar was developed and from time to time the original transmitter block is open to the public. Head north for Hollesley and just north of the village one has a choice of taking the Butley Ferry, which claims to be the smallest in Europe (and as a result does not take tandems!) or go round the creak. If you can book the ferry it is well worth the effort as it adds interest and texture and saves mileage.
Orford is a good place to eat something, do check out the Butley Oysterage or the Lady Florence which combines a tour of the estuary with excellent wildlife sighting opportunities, a history lesson and very good food.
From Orford it is a simple on-road route to Snape and Snape Maltings, where there are shops, cafes and of course concerts
At Snape one can continue on this route to NCR_1 at Bruisyard or take Regional Route 42 to Minsmere and meet up with NCR_1 just South of Halesworth.
