Southwold's unique cottage museum is dedicated to the local and natural history of this corner of Suffolk. Owned and managed by the Southwold Museum & Historical Society, this tiny building houses an astonishing collection of objects, paintings, photographs, models and wildlife exhibits.

Following extensive renovation Southwold Pier is now one of the finest examples of a Pier to be found in the British isles, it attracts thousands of visitors making it one of Southwold's greatest attractions. Piers are always subject to bombardment of the tremendous power of the sea, but at their best they represent one of the finest aspects of our national heritage. The pier has the perfect mix of happy memories of holidays past, of hot summer days relaxing on the beach, and now an offering that really puts us on the map.
