Lavenham is full of photographic gems. Dating back from 1395, The Crooked House is instantly recognisable. It’s described by Country Life as “one of the world’s most photographed homes”, and hosts immersive tours and black tie dinners.

In the beautiful town of Bury St Edmunds, the Abbey Gardens has a winning combination of history with its ruins, and beautiful nature within its gardens. There’s plenty to photograph here. And just outside of the gardens you have the pretty historic streets of Angel Hill and Churchgate Street.

The exquisite Jacobethan architecture, opulent interiors, and impeccably landscaped gardens render Somerleyton Hall an absolute dream for photographic inspiration. Every corner, both indoors and outdoors, has such charm that locating a non-photogenic spot proves challenging, if not impossible!

Southwold Beach is full of photo opportunities. You have the famous pier, the iconic lighthouse, and the beautiful beach huts. Some people love to capture them all in Instagram Reels!

Willy Lott’s Cottage is an iconic piece of English countryside immortalised on canvas by John Constable more than 100 years ago. The challenge for you could be to capture the cottage from the same or similar angle!

One of Suffolk’s most iconic images, the Scallop was designed and created by local artist Maggi Hambling. It was awarded the Public Monuments and Sculpture Association Marsh Award, so it’s little wonder that it’s a popular shot for photographers. Take a photo of it with the dramatic sunrise rising out of the sea behind it for a full-on dramatic flare.
