Camping In East Sussex (Part 8)

Our final stop on our mini trip was into the town of Hastings. Hastings may have become one of my favourite places in England. It just has everything you want in a seaside town. If you ever want to go on a really stereotypical trip to a British beach, go to Hastings.

The Jerwood Gallery was an amazing gallery, the particular exhibit I went to see was a display of Jeffrey Camp's work. His work really reminded me of Van Gogh's with Jeffrey's own unique element thrown in to every one of his paintings. I also may have done a bit too much shopping in Hastings, in fact I almost bought a bike but my mum spent a long time convincing me it wouldn't fit in the van.





So that's it, East Sussex I miss you, and hopefully I will see you again some time soon.

Camping In East Sussex (Part 7)

I love visiting garden's. It's the old lady in me, she just loves strolling through hedge-cut pathways. When in East Sussex, we found out the homes and gardens of famous gardener Christopher Lloyd where just a short drive away. Great Dixter is a massive expanse of colour and wild-life and the tea-rooms! Do not get me started on there carrot cake.

Camping In East Sussex (Part 6)

I predict soon it will be hard for me to recall which 'Part' I am on.

No matter where you go in England, you can always count on finding amazing pub grub. Luckily for us, it was about 10 feet away from our camper van. The Red Lion in Broad Oak Brede was not just a dinner, it was an experience. I ate with chickens. No, I did not eat them, I ate with them. Which, with me being a vegetarian, felt like something to write in my book of things I'm going to remember till I die. One of them had a severe limp though, which almost brought on a heart attack when a customers dog saw the advantage of a very slow bird (Don't worry, the dog's lead meant that no blood was shed)

I had scampi and a G&T, because I like to be classic at all times. Then I followed this with Banoffee Pie, which was the prettiest thing I had ever seen, and tasted pretty nice as well. However sadly it was a desert I feel they put more effort into the looks than taste. To sum up, I've had better Banoffee Pie.

Camping In East Sussex (Part 5)

One of the many things that occurred on my short camping trip was that the town of Rye officially became one of my favourite places in England. I've never seen so many vintage and antique shops, the place is built out of them. Well, them and Tudor houses.

Camping In East Sussex (Part 4)

The rest of our venture in to Battle was pretty awesome. The home of The Battle of Hastings has so much to offer for such a small town, one of these offerings obviously being the location of the fight itself (as well as a few adorable tea rooms)










This tree reminded me of The Lion King, hence why I took a picture of it.

This feels like a very lazy post. Okay, it is a very lazy post.
