Peaceful. Calm. Restful. On Suffolk’s quiet Shotley Peninsula you’ll find Woolverstone Marina & Lodge Park.

Head all the way down to Shotley Gate where the two rivers that run either side of the peninsula meet the sea. See the fascinating sight of the enormous cranes at the Port of Felixstowe across the Orwell loading and unloading gigantic ocean-going vessels, or hop on the Harwich Harbour Ferry for a tour or a quick jaunt across the Stour to Essex.
