Profits from the wool trade once made Suffolk one of England's richest counties, and today's visitors, seeking a quintessential East Anglian experience, will certainly not leave feeling short-changed. Suffolk, low-lying but rarely flat, is a landscape dominated by its countless villages, each with their own church, and by its Anglo Saxon heritage with the famous burial site of Sutton Hoo and the archaeological village at West Stow. 

Suffolk is the latest title in Bradt's recently relaunched Slow Travel series.
