Our Family Break

Last month, DH, Babygirl and I headed off to Broad Oak, a small village which is a short drive from Eastbourne.  We booked a beautiful cottage, loaded up the car and headed off for a week in the countryside.  It was a fabulous week away!

Fantastic viewing spot to enjoy nature

Beautiful flowers to welcome us to the cottage
We pottered around the cottage, watched TV, played outside and completed lots of puzzles!
Babygirl thoroughly enjoyed the garden and tried her hand at taking a few pictures.

Happy feet!
The cottage was based on a farm so DH had the pleasure of a full tour on a tractor, while Babygirl insisted on saying hello to the cows every day!

We ventured out a few days after lazing around the cottage, with a day trip to Tunbridge Wells and a short drive to Eastbourne for Babygirl to see the sea for the first time.  We walked along the coastline and ate fish and chips on the pier!  A proper British seaside visit!


 
The pressure is on for us to book our next break as everyday Babygirl is asking when we'll be returning to the cottage.  I think the first family break was a hit!
