We stayed at this B&B just 1 mile from the center of Rye, a small coastal town about 1 h south of London. The funny round structure behind the kids is where they used to roast hops for brewing beer, and the ground level is where we stayed (plus 2 other rooms and 2 bathrooms - tons of room) (www.rye.me.uk/leasamfarmoast/) .
The place was wild. There were animals everywhere (and animal hair) - horses, ponies, dogs, cats, a chicken, turtles birds -- and the kids absolutely loved it, of course. Crazy Dave was the first thing we met - a young pony that would try to mount you if you weren't watching. Quickly we made a game of trying to stay away from crazy dave, or he'd get you!
The kids also loved playing with Hebe, the 6 year-old daughter of our hostess, who was also pretty wild. She'd take the kids around the farm and show them the horses. Soon the kids just wanted to stay at the farm and play all day with Hebe and her sister Hermione. Luckily they went camping in Belgium w their dad, and we got our vacation back. Maybe we found a B&B that was a little too kid-friendly!
