Lazy Days in Camber
Lazy Days in Camber
If you are looking to spend lazy days in Camber, the beach is an easy walk from all the houses, you can while away many hours staring at the sea with a good book! Or wander the ancient cobbled streets of Rye and enjoy all the antiques and independent shops, and lunch at The George.
If pampering is what it is required – Rye has some great treatments – Fantastic facials by Sharon at The Rye Sanctuary and more pampering at the Aveda Rye Retreat. Or if you can’t even move and want a really lazy day in Camber, try the travelling masseur, Sophie Kingsley, who will come to any of the houses.
If its raining and you need to entertain the kids (or yourselves) an independent state of the art digital cinema has arrived in Rye, two screens showing current and arthouse films Kino Cinema also offering fabulous food in stylish surroundings or a fabulous courtyard – a perfect sun trap in Rye. NB: Two for the price of one on any film on a Tuesday!
The indoor 25m swimming pool in Rye is a great place to get in some lengths – loads of keep fit classes on offer too.
