May I say something? There is one place we go to down in Kent that anyone can unwind in. This little village has a church with the steeple built separately. The land is too soft for the steeple to go on the top of it, so they built it further away! It also has a modern coach house or pub as it was built in 1576. So that is ideal for lunch and a pint from the Kent Hop fields. It also has a steam railway that you can go on trips through the Kent Countryside, which is fabulous. Then it is back to the Tudor Rooms tea house that is older than the pub for English Cream tea. Warm scones, butter off the farm, homemade strawberry jam and lashings of thick rich cream, with of course a teapot of tea! Sat in the Cottage Garden, listening to the skylarks singing and the swallows swirling ahead, then the splash of a trout jumping for a fly in the clean stream is pure Heaven. Total cost for cream tea and as many scones and jam etc., as you can eat $8, any left you can take them home!
That is pure Heaven; no mobile phones, nobody bothers you, oh for total bliss!
Regards.
Neil.
