We Visited The 'Ancient Town of RYE'

RYE Town is one of my favorites to visit here in England, I call this a 'relaxing town' for me. Whenever I get tired of going to busy streets, I always recommend and ask hubby to visit this town. We went there last Saturday afternoon, quite a pleasant day though, the sun was up and not too cold. Myself holding my shopping bag, as usual lol. Well never had a day out without any bags on our way home....Don't we all?


Located in East Sussex is a corruption of an old Anglo-Saxon word meaning an island. Rye's historic core, sited on a hill overlooking a landscape of green pastures, was once almost enveloped by the sea. Its position on a narrow neck of land with the wide estuaries of the Tillingham and Rother rivers on each side was significant. It could watch over the surrounding Romney Marsh, and, as a port, it guarded the land from foreign invasion.


After the long walk we had, we headed straight to their beach at "CAMBER SANDS" - I call it FREEZY COLD BEACH...LOL... Imagine how cold the water would be most time of year, only except summer! This place is pretty full during summers...

Gorgeous Breaks in CORNWALL

I have been to Cornwall myself just last April this year, together with my husband for the very first time! I didn't know anything about this place before, we came to visit my husband's brother down there. We stayed for about 5 days and It was lovely, wonderful place and I just love everything about this place. If I were have to be given for at least a week break, I would rather go back to this place again and book through Hotelshopuk. Stunning place which is known for its deserted coves and picturesque characters. It is also blessed with glorious gardens and with a mild climate. I enjoyed walking around the narrow streets in small towns, with shops around. Most of all eating their traditional Cornish fare of Pasty, Saffron Cake, and my favorite Cornish Cream Tea.

Among the places that I have been is St. Ives, a small town in the far west of the country. Though originally a fishing village, it has for the last 150 years become both a popular holiday destination and an internationally renowned school of painting. With narrow winding cobbled streets and passages, a magnificent harbour, and superb beaches, all just around the corner from Lands End. In summer the hanging basket flower planter displays all around the Harbour and the Main Streets are a delight to the eye. Those in front of the St Ives Tourist Information Centre, at the Guildhall, deserve a particular mention.

This is a place that truly has something for everyone. Families can spend countless hours playing in the golden sands of the resorts gently sloping beaches, or simply, taking a relaxing dip in the un-characteristically warm sea.

We also went to visit the "St. Michael's Mount", the most famous of Cornwall's landmarks, which has fascinating history, is stepped in both legend and folklore, it has a stunning panoramic views across Mounts Bay to Lands End and The Lizards. There are loads of beautiful towns and landmarks Cornwall has to offer to tourists, and we also we went to loads of places, like in St. Ives, our Geevor Tin Min tour which I will be telling you about this later.
