New Romney Holidays

With UK holidays more cool than ever before, now's the time to take a typical UK holiday to New Romney in Kent, a county that's one of the UK's best-kept holiday secrets. Not far from your New Romney holiday cottage, lodge or park lies Rye Castle Museum, split over two sites. The main site houses exhibitions based around Rye life. Here, you can see wooden mosaics, Rye pottery and Rye’s old fire engine, dating from 1745. The other site is the Ypres Tower, dating from around 1250 and the oldest public building in Rye. Check out the great views of Romney Marsh from the balcony. Another castle, Camber, sits between Rye and Winchelsea, and is worth a visit. For a more active day out on your Kent holiday, try Daytona Lydd International, Kent's Premier Karting Venue, with its 1200-metre circuit and excellent hospitality facilities.

 

A unique feature of holidays in New Romney is the mesmerising Romney, Hythe and Dymchurch Railway, which is the world's smallest public railway. Running on a 15-inch gauge, the 13.5 mile line runs from Hythe via Dymchurch, St Mary's Bay, New Romney and Romney Sands to Dungeness, known for its wildlife, power station and lighthouse. Using New Romney as your holiday base, other great Kent holiday days out include Canterbury Cathedral, dating from the sixth century and featuring a stunning ancient crypt and quire and fabulous stained-glass windows. Dover Castle is also worth a visit on your holiday in New Romney, while Leeds Castle has quite simply been described as the world's most beautiful.
