Description of Long Reach

Stunning barn in outstanding location overlooking the tidal Alde estuary. Iken is a reputed base of Boudicca and the marauding Iceni tribes who made good use of the commanding position on the south side of the Alde Estuary. Later, in 869AD, a Viking sailing fleet destroyed the 7th Century monastery at Iken. In the 19th Century sailing barges used the river to trade corn and coal between Snape, London and the east coast ports. Now, you will see the occasional pleasure boat whilst taking in the highly regarded SSSI wildlife habitat and the stunning estuary scenery. Views span from the 7th Century St Butolphs Church, standing on a promontory of higher ground, to the former maltings at Snape which are now vibrant with the sounds of the famous concert hall. Long Reach is on the ground floor of this timber framed great barn, which enjoys an unrivalled position and maximizes the estuary views from within all the main rooms as well as from the stone paved terrace. The terrace overlooks the wide estuary of the Alde and the stretch of water from which it takes its name.
