Moreover, sleepy creeks, tranquil waterways, and windmills cannot be missed out.
Ahead of all this, there is a smooth day’s ride along with a probable visit to the imposing ‘Tudor Great House’ or atmospheric ruins, moated mansion, ancient priories and castles, or a world-renowned royal estate, followed by a graceful market town having ‘flint-faced’ cottages, merchants’ houses that are pastel-painted, and last, but not the least, the Saxon Church.
One might try famed ales of the region, along with ciders of the medieval period, while pondering over the next move. Any one of the two routes-the coastal route covering the panoramic seascapes and fishing ports, or the inland trail covering picturesque villages and barley fields can be selected.
