    • While googling for information about Ipswich, I came across the website of the Ipswich Museum and decided to go there.
    It's about 10 minutes to walk from the town centre, up a hill in a residential area.
    The Ipswich Museum - not to be confused with the Transport Museum there - has a large exhibition of local wildlife and local history.The staff were very friendly and helpful. Nothing there of the bored attitude that you often find in a more famous museum.
    Even though it was pouring and admission is free, it seemed I was the only visitor in the museum.I had a nice talk to some of the staff and I enjoyed my visit there very much.

     The museum sounds interesting but this internet "deal" at the hotel seems a bit of a rip-off!    		evaanna Tue Apr 24, 2007 17:29 UTC
     If the coast is there, I would definitely like Ipswich. Why do the British charge so much for accommodation? No wonder they themselves prefer to spend their holidays abroad.

     Good and interesting tips. I only knew Ipswich Town Football Club as for now.    		BattyBuffalo Sat Jan 7, 2006 11:10 UTC
