Brettenham is a quiet and picturesque village set amongst some of Suffolk’s finest countryside. It is within easy reach of business centres, retail and educational facilities whilst being on the doorstep of the mediaeval wool town of Lavenham. There are plenty of footpaths to be enjoyed as well as events in the Village hall, Church and occasional ‘village pub’. There are two schools in Brettenham, both private, one being acclaimed for its education for children with dyslexia. Local shops, mini super-market, health centre, restaurants, public houses etc are to found at Lavenham some five miles distant. Brettenham derives its name from the river Brett that is understood to start from a spring on the edge of the village, now a stream in most areas, and ham meaning hamlet.
