Woodbridge cottage holidays Holiday rentals - self catering cottages to rent in Woodbridge
Woodbridge is a historic market town located 8 miles off the coast along the river Deben and opposite the enchanting Rendlesham Forest. Woodbridge has a rich maritime history of sail, rope making and boat building that dates back to the Middle Ages which is no surprise given its proximity to the historic naval town of Ipswich.
Whilst a small town, Woodbride has fantastic shops and there is a good selection of excellent pubs and restaurants. Being on the edge of an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, renting a cottage in Woodbridge gives you the freedom to explore the Suffolk Coast and tourist attractions including some major archaeological sites of the Anglo-Saxon period along with the Sutton Hoo burial ship.
