The region of Suffolk, UK is set in the region of East Anglia, which encounter favourable weather, such as reduced wind speeds and more sunlight all through the year, in contrast to the rest of the UK. For that reason, Suffolk is a wonderful area to enjoy, the whole year round.

Suffolk rarely sees extreme or damaging weather, which is one of the reasons why Newmarket, Suffolk was chosen as the home of horseracing, many years ago. The town now features miles of horse training grounds and horse walks, where racehorses can be seen, throughout the breadth of the town, on a daily basis.

Therefore, autumn is a great time to experience what the county has to offer.

There are various guided nature walks, cycling events, farmers' markets, countryside events and RSPB bird watching and activities happening in various locations throughout Suffolk, as well as the Woodwose Pumpkin and Chilli Festival in Aldeburgh, which all take place throughout the autumn season.

The horseracing at Newmarket also takes place throughout October, with the last meeting usually being held at the end of the month. Many of these countryside activities, and similar events, also take place throughout the winter months, with the exception of Newmarket racing. However, the racecourses at Newmarket function as venues for many other events throughout the year, including craft fairs and classic car shows.
