Location

3 Sutton Heights is situated on Melton Hill, which is conveniently located just a short distance from the amenities of the town.  Woodbridge is probably best known for its outstanding riverside setting with its wonderful network of footpaths.  It also offers a good choice of schooling in both the state and private sectors, along with a wide variety of shops and restaurants.  Recreational facilities include sailing on the River Deben, taking advantage of the good choice of well regarded golf clubs in the area — including Woodbridge Golf Club, which was founded in 1893 — or visiting the local cinema. Woodbridge also benefits from rail links to Ipswich, from where rail services to London's Liverpool Street station take just over the hour. 

The popular heritage coastline destinations of Orford and Aldeburgh are just approximately 10 miles and 15 miles away respectively.  The county town of Ipswich is approximately 10 miles to the south-west.  The A12 trunk road, which links the north and the south of the county, is also a short distance to the west. 

Directions

Heading south on the A12 from the direction of Wickham Market, at the first roundabout take the first exit onto Woods Lane and continue down to the traffic lights.  Turn right and proceed up Melton Hill. Sutton Heights can be found just over half a mile along on the left hand side, with the allocated parking space located to the rear of the property, accessed from Old Maltings Approach.
