Rougham Estate, located in the idyllic Suffolk countryside near Bury St Edmunds, offers a range of activities set in the natural beauty of England.
The Estate’s history dates back centuries having hosted the Romans, Saxons and Vikings. Encompassing over 3000 acres of glorious Suffolk countryside, there are leisurely walks through woodlands and fields to embark on, natural wonders to enjoy and history to discover, including the year-round café serving locally-sourced dishes.
Rougham Estate is a welcoming location for you to relax and be inspired, offering a range of opportunities to immerse yourself in the beautiful surroundings. From the sunflowers in the summer to the Christmas festival, well-respected Crafts events and workshops that bring the estate to life throughout the year, the Estate is committed to sustainability and conservation.

Rougham Estate takes the role of caring for the environment very seriously. It covers an area of 3,000 acres in total and boasts woodland covering 20% of the whole, amounting to some 655 acres, or twice the national average. In addition to many miles of traditional hedgerows, the Estate is famous for its wonderful oak trees.

The Maintenance Shed is another hidden gem within our Roots Café, providing a quiet and private space away from the hustle and bustle of the cafe.
It’s ideal for those seeking a more exclusive and intimate setting, whether you`re catching up on work, enjoying a quiet meal, or having a confidential meeting.
What makes the Maintenance Shed even more special is its unique décor. The space is filled with tools, antiques, and artefacts gathered from the Estate over the years, each with its own story to tell. These items offer a glimpse into the rich history and heritage of the Estate, adding character and charm to the space.
Whether you`re looking for a quiet retreat or a cosy spot with a touch of nostalgia, the Maintenance Shed is the perfect place to escape, relax, and soak in the history.

We are only 8 days away from Christmas!
Many of us now have our trees up and will keep them up until the New Year. So how do you keep them fresh for as long as possible?
Here are some top tips 🎄
Half of your tree is made up of water so you need to keep it hydrated. So keep your tree watered and check it regularly.
Before you put your tree up, cut an inch off the bottom for optimum water absorption.
Make sure the stand can be filled with plenty of water and that your tree fits comfortably without having to whittle down any of the sides of the trunk. These parts of the tree are the most efficient absorbing water.
Keep your tree away from heat and direct sunlight. Lowering your room temperature by a degree or two will help.
In the meantime, enjoy that fresh Christmas scent and if you haven’t got your tree yet, we have them on sale until the 22nd of December.
