Location
14 The Courtyard forms part of the residential development of Snape Maltings that was undertaken during 2005 and 2006, comprising the stunning conversion of a Grade II Listed former maltings that was built during the latter part of the 19th Century.  In the immediate vicinity is Snape Maltings.  As well as being home to Aldeburgh Music and the internationally renowned concert hall, hosting a wide range of concerts and festivals throughout the year, it also benefits from a number of bespoke retail outlets, including a well regarded food hall and interiors store, boutiques, antique centre, gallery, cafes and a pub, the Plough & Sail. There is also an excellent gift shop and restaurant as part of the concert hall.  Snape Maltings also hosts regular Farmers’ Markets and special events, such as Easter Egg Hunts. There are also excellent walks from The Maltings, notably to Iken Church. The village of Snape itself benefits from some well regarded public houses/restaurants, The Golden Key and The Crown.  In addition, there is a primary school, two garages, a filling station and a village hall, which hosts many classes and activities.  Snape is in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and on the doorstep is an extensive footpath network, providing excellent access to the surrounding heathland and Alde Estuary. The well regarded coastal resorts of Aldeburgh and Thorpeness are a short distance away, as is the market town of Saxmundham, approximately three miles, where there are Waitrose and Tesco supermarkets, as well as branch line rail links to London Liverpool Street via Ipswich.
