Location

Otley is a small village nestled in the Suffolk countryside, around 8 miles north of Ipswich and a similar distance north west of Woodbridge. The A12 and A14 are within easy reach, Westerfield train station is just over 5 miles away and there is a well maintained and extensive network of footpaths. Local bus services connect directly with Ipswich, Woodbridge and Framlingham, and villages along these routes.
Residents of Otley are fortunate to have an award-winning village shop and post office, a doctors' surgery, the White Hart public house, a village hall, scout hut, playing field and bowls green. A mobile library, fresh fish and frozen food deliveries, milkman and a fish & chip van also serve the village.
The local primary school has around 50 pupils and secondary education facilities can be found at nearby Farlingaye High School in Woodbridge and Framlingham College. Otley College has specialist facilities for vocational training in areas such as agriculture, horticulture, arboriculture, and animal studies, alongside courses in construction, engineering, foundation learning, sport and public services. Founded in 1970 as Otley College of Agriculture and Horticulture, it merged with Ipswich-based Suffolk New College in 2020, having previously been in partnership with Easton College in Norfolk.
