LocationHaddiscoe is a small village with a population of around 500. It is situated some 6.5 miles North East of the market town of Beccles. The village has a strong sense of Community with a local Pub and Community centre. St Mary's Church at Haddiscoe is one of the 124 round-tower churches of Norfolk, believed - despite its round tower - to be of early Norman origin.
Beccles town is made up of small market squares and winding streets nestled by the River Waveney with fantastic views of the Southern Broads. The town centre provides a blend of quirky, independent shops, restaurants, cafes and other services that make it a highly desirable place to live. There are a host of community events, festivals and entertainment held throughout the year. Beccles offers a wealth of diversity, combining history with modern-day culture.
