Sutton Hoo

"what are we doing today?"

Sutton Hoo

This hauntingly beautiful 91-hectare (255-acre) estate, with far-reaching views over the River Deben, is home to one of the greatest archaeological discoveries of all time.

Walk around the ancient burial mounds and discover the incredible story of the ship burial of an Anglo-Saxon king and his treasured possessions.

Come face to face with your ancestors and explore their award-winning exhibition, the full-size reconstruction of the burial chamber, stunning replica treasures and original finds from one of the mounds, including a prince’s sword.

Look inside the Edwardian house or enjoy the beautiful seasonal colours on the estate walks.

We do strongly suggest you ring Sutton Hoo before you set off on your family day out, just to make sure they are open and to confirm admission prices, there is nothing worse than disappointed kids in the back of your car after a long journey.

Also, it may be worth clicking the link to Sutton Hoo's website, to see if there are special events and seasonal things to do that may be going on during the day.
