Some ideas in rural Kent to get a change of scenery and escape the crowds. Autumn is not only beautiful here, it is full of harvest, fruit, wine, ciders, beers, great walks, workshops of different types with only small numbers of people and in many places none at all. There was such a lot to do in the area it surprised me.
Kent, with its rich and fertile soil, is one of the best places in the world to find fresh fruits and vegetables, also renowned for its orchards ripe with award-winning apple, pear and cherry varieties (it's not called the Garden of England for nothing!)
Kent is a great choice for a staycation because there is lots to see and do and nothing is very far away. It has a great choice of places to stay and has castles, gardens, beaches, countryside, great walking, fabulous food and a lot to discover and enjoy for all the family.
Our amazing day out was to Leeds Castle Festival of Flowers and this year we really spoilt ourselves and had the delicious and beautiful afternoon tea in the castle as well.
With my three favourite things included in this day made it perfect - blue sky and sunshine, tasty and delicious food and the characterful and charming goats at Buttercups. Added to this the experience to choose and pick a vase full of English flowers was made for a delightful and very memorable day.
A brilliant family day out with lots to do and see. Fantastic friendly animals to visit and lots of history, interesting and cool things. This part of England has lots to offer families, so there are lots of good days out but this was our favourite.
If you are looking for a great day out in Kent with family and friends then look no further than an electric bike tour. You get to have a bit of an adventure, a lot of laughs and time to make some great memories to keep forever. I love trips like this and cannot wait to do it again.
Girls just wanna have fun - and age does not come into it. We all love the shops, a bit of culture, some pretty flowers, a smidgen of luxury and a little tipple of something that sparkles besides ourselves in a braw* way.
There are few things nicer in life than a glorious picnic in the sunshine. Delicious food alfresco, a satisfied tummy and a stretch out in the sun on the picnic blanket to watch fluffy white clouds in a blue sky.
All of the places below have been tried and tested for a picnic, but your choice might be a need of accessibility or time, but whatever it is all you have to do is enjoy it.
