Hole Cottage 2nd September 2004 |
|
This morning we decided to go for a walk in the local woods, as it's a
beautiful day again. We walked for an hour or so following the stream and
walking uphill, the countryside here is lovely and we could see a farmhouse in
the distance but no other habitation.
Back at Hole Cottage we had brunch and decided we would go and visit Tunbridge
Wells. We walked down to The Pantiles and explored all the little shops in this
area.
Stopped at The Royal Oak in the old square for lunch outside salads with thick
crusty bread, then wandered around the little shops in the square and bought a
knife sharpener, oven gloves and a peeler really exciting! Aren't we getting
domesticated.
We like Tunbridge Wells a lot as there are still loads of little individual
shops here selling lovely things. It is such a pretty town too, lovely buildings
and pretty parks. Spent all day just meandering.
Back at Hole Cottage we sat in our deck chairs facing this stunning and tranquil
little house with the wine and music just relaxing, ate our lamb steaks and went
back out till it got too dark and cold to sit any longer. I really love this
place, it's definitely up there with The
Swiss Cottage and The Gothic
Temple as far as I am concerned.
We are off home in the morning, but I would be pleased to come back here anytime
and hope that I do.
