The Cooden Beachcomber
Holiday brief
Our country is blessed with many areas of outstanding natural beauty, is steeped
in history, and enjoys an unsurpassable abundance of rural and coastal
attractions. Nowhere is this profusion of attractions more prominent than the
south coast region of East Sussex and Kent. So join us
“down south” for an unbeatable summer tour.
The Taj Mahal, Brighton!
Motor Museum. We’ll have to drag you away for the early evening return to Cooden Beach.
Thursday – How’s this for an interesting and varied day out? Depart hotel by coach for a 20 odd
mile journey to Uckfield. Then it
’s onward by rail, covering two lovely rural branch lines from Uckfield via Oxted
to East Grinstead. A short coach journey and we join the flower of the south
– The Bluebell Railway. From little seeds sown many years ago, has grown “the” premier tourist attraction south of London. We will enjoy our visit to the
full. From atmospheric Horsted Keynes we take a round trip and partake of a
ploughman
’s lunch as well! The original Royal Greenwich Observatory, which was moved to
Herstmonceux, is our fascinating visit en route back to Cooden Beach. A great
day out!
Friday – Four cracking days have preceded today, so this needs to be good, and it is. We
go by train from Cooden, via Hastings, and then on one of the south
’s few un-electrified routes to Appledore, near New Romney. Here we join the
absolutely wonderful Romney, Hythe and Dymchurch Railway. Railway enthusiast or
not, you cannot fail to be enchanted by this 13 mile long
“main line” small gauge railway operating over Romney Marshes. Inside Track’s special arrangements here will ensure you enjoy a fitting finale to your south
coast experience. Homeward bound train journeys commence from nearby Ashford at
about 15.00hrs.
