A highly-anticipated café and Christmas shop are set to open on a popular Suffolk estate today after months of construction work.

Now, the wait is over for fans of both Christmas and coffee, as the site will open to customers today.
The cafe will be open from 8.30am and is dog-friendly, according to a post on social media.
"As much as possible, our tasty dishes and refreshments use locally-sourced ingredients and local suppliers," said the social media post.

Breakfast will be served from 8.30am to 11.30am, lunch from 12pm to 3pm and afternoon tea from 3pm to 4.30pm.
The Christmas shop will also be open today from 9.30am to 5pm.
