Location

Hoxne lies in an outstanding rural area on the south side of the picturesque Waveney Valley and is surrounded by a network of lovely country lanes and footpaths giving easy access to not only the village amenities such as the post office stores, pub and primary school but also Eye and the wide variety of facilities on offer there. The active village community attracts all age groups and throughout the year traditional activities take place ranging from monthly Parish Council Meetings in the Village Hall, to Fetes and events on the Village Green and Playing Field. Neighbouring Eye is fortunate in having supermarkets, butcher, a baker, chemist and a variety of other shops and businesses allowing the area to be essentially self sufficient. A Health Centre, Primary School and High School with Sixth Form combine to appeal to a wide ranging age group. Moreover at Diss, approximately 5 miles distant, a mainline rail station has commuter services to London Liverpool Street in a journey time of around 90 minutes
