Suffolk is a very flat region and it is one of the only counties in England not to contain a city. It is a very rural place with much of the land being farmed, but there is also an extensive coastline and some lovely places to enjoy a fishing break. The beaches stretch from Lowestoft in the north to Felixstowe in the south and these seventy four miles of coastline is great for fishing.
There are also a number of rivers, natural ponds and man made fisheries which are well stocked with bream, chub and carp to name just a few of the fish varieties. Fishing Holiday Cottages in Suffolk are available to rent all across the county so you can be near the sea or close to an
inland pond or river.
