CHELMONDISTON enjoys a delightful position adjacent to the river Orwell on the Shotley Peninsular. The village has wealth of facilities including two shops, post office, hairdressers and two thriving pubs. There is ample access to the river along with sailing clubs and local societies. Transport links by Train into central London from stations in Manningtree and Ipswich taking around under an hour, the wider country accessible by road from the nearby A12 and A14. A short walk down the hill are the historic moorings of Pin Mill and the well regarded Butt & Oyster pub (we highly recommend a visit!).
DIRECTIONS Leave A14 junction 56 to Wherstead, when you reach the roundabout at the bottom of the hill, turn right towards Shotley. Continue along the B1456 for circa 4.5 miles passing under the Orwell Bridge, through Woolverstone until you reach Mill Lane, the first turn of the left hand side in Chelmondiston. Yew Tree Cottage will be found on the left hand side with a large drive (and a yew tree!) to the front.
