Bedgebury

Today we went cycling at Bedgebury Pinetum. 
We had been there once before a long time ago without bikes, but it was fun to be just a little bit older and go back. It takes nearly an hour to get there, even though its not far as the crow flies! Its an interesting place - there is a distinct lack of maps so you have to either buy a map of the property or else nose your way around. There are 10 different play areas hidden throughout the property with cycle paths weaving around but not always within sight of them. So its extra fun to stumble upon whole new play areas! The terrain was not flat and so we did have a couple of tired kids by the end, but it was a fun day.
Then on the way home, we stopped for a pint at the Nevill Crest and Gun pub, which we have driven past several times in the past and said "Ooh, that looks like a nice pub". It was raining when we got there so kind of nice to sit inside and be cozy.
Then we went home and had a quiet Saturday evening!
