Location
7 Kings Hill is situated in a lovely position between the villages of Earl Soham and Brandeston. The property enjoys wonderful views to the rear over meadowland and undulating farmland. The village was originally an Earldom associated with the Duke of Norfolk and is located 3 miles from the market town of Framlingham and approximately a 35 minute drive from the coastal resorts of Aldeburgh and Thorpeness. The village church was built in the 13th century. The village itself has retained a lot of its charm due to its history and most of the houses and buildings being listed in the 1960s. It has won Britain's 'Best Kept Village' and was a finalist in Country Life's 'Best British Village'. In addition to the church is an active village hall, tennis club, bowls club, country pub, and also Mr Hutton's butchers store (noted in Country Life as a treasure!) There is also a doctors surgery, veterinary practice and a primary school. Within a couple of miles is Kingfishers, which is Cretingham's Golf Club. Framlingham, with all it has to offer, including Thomas Mills High School, is 4.5 miles. The county town of Ipswich lies some 14 miles to the south and provides regular main line rail services to London's Liverpool Street station, taking just over one hour. The A14 is accessible some 12 miles to the west and provides a dual carriageway link to Cambridge and the Midlands, as well as to London via the A12. 

Directions
From Framlingham, proceed along the B1119 into Saxtead.  Pass The Old Mill House pub on your left and at the T-junction with the A1120 turn left and continue into Earl Soham.  Having entered the village, proceed along the road passing the school and John Hutton Butchers on the right hand side.  Take the next road on the left signposted towards Brandeston.  Proceed out of the village where Kings Hill Cottages will be found on the right hand side.  Number 7 is the seventh house on the right within the second terrace of cottages.
