Further educational facilities include Otley Primary school, Otley under 5’s play group and the local St Mary’s Church. There is a handy village convenience store which also doubles as a Post Office and is locally run. The White Hart pub serves good food and local beer and there are bus links to other local villages and the towns of Framlingham and Ipswich. There is an excellent doctor’s surgery managed by the Debenham Group Practice.
