The historic village of Martlesham was recorded in the Domesday Book (1086) as Merlesham, although evidence of Roman settlements has also been found. It is home to two pubs and the idyllic Martlesham creek, which is a popular location for both sailing and wildlife walks. Residents often refer to the parish as ‘Old Martlesham’ as a means of distinguishing the older village with the more recent Martlesham Heath development. Martlesham boasts a number of features and attractions, including a local leisure, health and fitness centre and the Martlesham Heath Control Tower Museum in the newer development. Properties range from beautiful detached houses with spacious gardens to distinguished bungalows and 18th-century cottages.
