Day excursions

The Heritage Transport Show is a celebration of classic and vintage cars, motorcycles, tractors, steam, stationary engines, commercial and military vehicles. Joined by the South East Bus Festival, the event also brings a huge number of buses and coaches from across the South East and beyond.

We travel to the peaceful resort of Bexhill-on-Sea, where its vintage shops, quirky places for art and music and independent cafés, defy traditional seaside stereotypes. Following time here, we travel on to the historic town of Battle. Named after the Battle of Hastings, the most famous conflict on English soil, this compact market town plays host to a tranquil medieval abbey and surrounding ancient woodlands.

A cosmopolitan fair featuring a wealth of antique and vintage choice. The event has up to 300 indoor stands, with hundreds more outside (weather permitting). Due to its location, many traders from the continent attend offering something different. With a great selection of jewellery, ceramics, furniture, fabulous garden goods and so much more, this is a weekend fair not to be missed.

Situated at the foot of the South Downs, Worthing is one of the largest towns on the South Coast. Worthing is a lively destination for shopping, eating and family fun by the sea. With its wide open and far reaching views the seafront provides a natural playground for all ages.

Firstly we travel to the Cathedral City of Ely for their craft, food and vintage market. After a couple of hours we will then visit the beautiful riverside town of St Ives.
