The Jarman Centre, Newmarket
Lynn
A spacious hostel set in 18 acres of woodland at The Jarman Centre, a Girlguiding centre just outside Newmarket.
Walks from Newmarket explore the picturesque countryside of Suffolk and Cambridgeshire, including the Stour Valley Path which leads you through pretty villages and past the heathland gallops. You can walk the Devil's Dyke, one of the best surviving examples of Anglo-Saxon earthwork, and the ancient Icknield Way passes Newmarket. Newmarket is of course famous for horseracing, and The National Horseracing Museum and The National Stud are well worth visiting.
The Jarman Centre is at 119 Duchess Drive, Newmarket CB8 9HB. What3words: ///second.slanting.bring
