HermanBloom Jul 2017 11:20am, 3 Jul 2017 5,134 posts	Quote Pin HermanBloom Greetings Fetchies! Taking Mrs Bloom and mini-Bloom on our first family holiday next week. Just renting out a small apartment in Cambur Sands as not too far in terms of car travel to get there. We have a National Trust pass so are planning to visit Bodiam Castle but other than that we currently have no plans and no clue what is around the area. So, if any Fetchies know the area and are able to recommend activities/places to go for a family with a six month old (or what to avoid, which can be equally as helpful), that would be lovely

The glass expert from Antiques Roadshow has a shop there. Only downside is it's a bit narrow and some of the streets are cobbled so might be an issue with a pram. Rye Harbour nature reserve is good for walks and birdwatching.
