Historically the house and garden belonged to the Ickworth Estate, now reachable through a gate in the trees and a short leisurely walk through the woods. Horringer itself is a small village centered around the Ickworth estate, with two local pubs a five minute walk away both offering great food and drink. Horringer is close to the medieval town of Bury St Edmunds, which can be reached via the bus (a minutes walk from House of Wilde) or is just a five-minute drive by car. The quaint town boasts the smallest pub in England, a regency theatre and a beautiful Cathedral dating to the 14th century. There is also a train station, a modern shopping centre, a traditional market and a multiplicity of high quality bars and restaurants. We are located just on the outskirts of Bury St Edmunds which was recently nominated as the best place to live in The East of the country. The town is easily accessed by car or if you prefer to leave the car at home (we have ample parking) the local taxi firms are reliable. Alternatively there is a bus stop just a few minutes walk away. The nearby A14 provides an easily accessible commute to Cambridge, (35 minute drive) Ipswich, ( 35 minutes) Norwich (55 minutes) and London (90 minutes). The Suffolk and Norfolk coasts can be reached just either side of an hour respectively. Both boast beautiful beaches notably Southwold and Wells-Next-The-Sea. Although close to the town we are fortunate that we are located in a beautiful village which is home to a National Trust Park. The park boasts over 1800 acres of parkland and provides plenty of beautiful varied routes for serious walkers, runners, bike riders and leisurely strollers. The woods directly behind House of Wilde offer a calm and peaceful refuge yet further into the park is a trim-trail and play-park for the more energetic. A few minutes walk along the road from House of Wilde you will find 2 lovely village pub's. Both offer a great atmosphere, friendly service, excellent food and large gardens. The Beehive pub also has a 'Den' area which houses a pool table. Bury itself is a fab town and features an array of facilities including numerous restaurants, cafes, coffee shops, and pubs. The Abbey gardens and stunning Cathedral are both not to be missed. The Theatre Royal, and The Apex are both great if you are looking for some entertainment. If you fancy a little shop, the town is also home to a thriving market, high street stores and many independents. Please note that the kitchen does NOT have a built in oven or a hob. However we do have an electric 2 ring plug in hob and a combi microwave oven. We also have 2 village pubs, bother serving great food just a few minutes walk away.
