Chestnut at Toppesfield Hall

Toppesfield, a charming village on the Essex/Suffolk border offers a delightful countryside escape with various local attractions and activities nearby that can be enjoyed by all the family. Great Yeldham is just 1.5 miles away and provides a glimpse into local history with its quaint streets and traditional pubs. It also has a fantastic restaurant and independent distillery. For a day of family-friendly fun, head to Colchester Zoo (20 miles) to see a variety of incredible animals and interactive exhibits. Just over the border in Suffolk, Clare Country Park offers scenic walks, the ruins of a medieval castle, and a lovely spot for a picnic. Halstead, the nearest town, is only 7.5 miles away and boasts cafes, supermarkets and parks for leisurely strolls. Hedingham Castle, a Norman keep with beautiful gardens makes for a great spot for history buffs. The castle hosts events throughout the year, including medieval re-enactments and open-air theatre performances.
