From outside the Tea Rooms look very small, but on entering it was larger than expected. There was a very warm welcome from Caroline the Owner. The food is excellent and made from local produce. Don't miss this stop for an nice cup of tea and a typical bacon butty.

Bungay Castle

Highlight • Historical Site

The Grade I-listed Norman Bungay Castle became the seat of the Bigod family, allies of King William during the conquest of 1066. The Bigods were charismatic leaders among the barons and oversaw the construction of the keep in the latter half of the 12th century.

Today, Bungay Castle is an impressive ruin, with its two huge gate towers still intact. However, throughout 2023, the castle was closed for restorations.
