Southwold treasure hunt

Southwold is wonderful for a visit at any time of year, and our eccentric Southwold treasure hunt is a great day out by the seaside.

The upmarket and fashionable seaside town of Southwold is a perfect location for a treasure hunt.  From the church we head past the famous Adnam’s Brewery to explore the seafront with its colourful beach huts.  Passing the Sailor’s Reading Room we find clues in the market square, then follow the trail to finish at the cannons at the seafront end of South Green.
