TrainPal's Travel Expert Experience
"Visiting Ipswich: Pack your walking boots - countless trails beyond the city centre are reasonably easy to reach on foot. You can even reach Sutton Hoo, the site where an Anglo-Saxon king was laid to rest in his ship. Give it a proper half day rather than a quick museum stop so that you can follow the trails down to the river."
