This was once the old Southwold Victorian Cottage Hospital which has been recently repurposed. It is now the home to Southwold Library, the Geography Fieldwork Academy and two community businesses – Old Hospital Nursery and The Canteen, a farm to fork café. The Old Hospital has been redesigned into a beautiful and environmentally sustainable space to meet the needs of the local community.

The Canteen is a nice open bright space with seating in and outside. There is a breakfast and lunch menu with plenty to choose from including excellent coffee and a plethora of sweet treats to choose from for those with a sweet tooth. opening times are 9am till 4pm Tuesday through till Saturday. An excellent stop away from the main high street with those all important bike racks.

Check the website out for more information including the story of the Hospital and the clubs and groups that run alongside the Canteen

Southwold Beach and Beach Huts

Highlight • Structure

Southwold is a vibrant and picturesque town on the Suffolk coast. Its gorgeous sandy beach, interesting pier and colourful promenade are worth an amble, while the town centre has all the amenities you could need. The town was the home of 1984 novelist George Orwell between 1921 and the Second World War.
