One Suffolk town has been named on the UK's best and sunniest destinations this summer.

In a list of 10 locations put together by consumer website Which?, Southwold was ranked as the fourth best place to go to lap up some sun.

It comes after the town was named the second best seaside town in the UK in March and one of the best spots for fish and chips in May.

The rankings were determined by which places had the most sunshine as well as good ratings from visitors.

In the list, Southwold was praised for its 18C average peak temperature in June and seven hours of bright sunshine per day in the warmer months.

"Visitors raved about its seafront and pier, which houses an eccentric arcade of homemade slot machines designed by a local engineer. 

"You can take tours of Southwold’s stout 19th-century lighthouse and the Adnams brewery, which has been here since 1876."
