Only 10 miles from the the coast, this historic community with Roman roots lies on the outskirts of the Suffolk Coast & Heaths Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. To distinguish it from the younger, surrounding community of Martlesham Heath, which is just 40 years old, it is frequently referred to as "Old Martlesham." Martlesham Village is a great base for a coastal getaway, housing a post office, two pubs, one of which dates back to the 1500s, and a fish and chip shop, among other necessities. Martlesham Creek, which runs into the River Deben and down to the shore, is also located in the hamlet and is a popular sailing spot.
