Itinerary
Your Excursions
Royal Tunbridge Wells
We enjoy a visit to refined Royal Tunbridge Wells, an affluent town where Queen Victoria enjoyed regular holiday sojourns. The focal point is the elegant Pantiles - a charming colonnaded walkway lined with pavement cafés, shops and galleries and just perfect for a stroll.
Rye & Bexhill-on-Sea
Tiny Rye is located at the confluence of the rivers Rother, Tillingham and Brede and its harbour area is a nature reserve and a magnet for birds. Perhaps visit the town’s thirteenth century castle known as Ypres Tower and where you’ll find a medieval garden and an interesting museum. Maybe head to the National Trust’s Lamb House, the onetime home of literary great, Henry James or just wander around the beautifully preserved dwellings dating from the Middle Ages. Later we call in at Bexhill-on-Sea, a seaside resort with beachfront cafés, a gently sloping beach and a wide promenade – the perfect place to laze on a sunny afternoon.
Worthing & Shoreham-by-Sea
The largest town in West Sussex, Worthing boasts five miles of palm-lined promenade and an award winning beach. Perhaps learn all about the local history at the resort’s Museum & Art Gallery where you’ll find impressive costume and toy collections as well as a peaceful sculpture garden. Alternatively, Brooklands Park features a boating lake and miniature railway. Shoreham-by-Sea is a desirable Victorian town bordered by the South Downs National Park and home to old fishermen’s cottages, beautiful churches, an active harbour and a pretty shingle beach.
