Things to do in Arundel, Brighton area over Easter w/e

[pinkmamma]

Hello, wondering if anyone could recommend anything. Will be just me and DS (who is coming up for 3) so nothing toooooo adventurous!! Thanks

The wildfowl trust in Arundel is lovely for a stroll around, easy with a buggy too. Ducks everywhere- maybe babies too at this time of year.

The pier always interests kids of all ages.

There's a little railway which goes from outside the Sealife centre to the Marina and halfway along the route is a stop next to a fab newish playground (with coffee bar that does homemade sandwiches & cakes). There's crazy golf there too for older kids.

Pinkmama i am in the same situation dp is working all weekend!My ds is 10 though but if you get bored and fancy a coffee with kids in Preston Park let me know ds is at a party good friday then its just me and him with no car!He is more than happy to play with little ones xx

Noddyholder - you just made my cry!!!
It is a really kind offer but I have just split from my partner and most of the time I am doing so well - then at the most embarrassing times I just start crying (like in the middle of kids party yesterday . So no doubt I would sit there crying which would be awful!!
Thanks again though, the thought touched me

[noddyholder]

OMG!I am so sorry I didn't realise My offer still stands tears or no tears xx

Hi NH - don't worry, it was just one of those moments when someone being kind makes you cry. I am going to stay at my brother's cottage down there - I have been meaning to do it for about a year (he doesn't live there), but I am sure once I have been down there once I will be back so maybe meet another time when I am a little more together. Hears hoping for some good weather. Have a fab Easter. PMx

pinky: didn't realise you were having such a teary time at the mo... I gave you some grief on the fags the other day

Hope you took it with the good intentions that were in my head. . Did you manage to get the book ? What did you think ? It helped my dw a lot. The fag free thread seemed to get a bit strange the last few days so I'm steering well clear...

Hope you enjoy Arudel. I studied at the University of Sussex, so visited Arundel / Lewes etc. - there's the Bloomsbury Set cottage towards Lewes - group of arty writers - and that's nice, but maybe better in Summer as there's a great garden. Arundel has a massive antique fair I think. From Brighton you can walk on the Downs if you want countryside.

pink: Sorry, I got you confused with another user: 'minkmama.' Very sorry indeed.

Enjoy your holdiay. Had a stalkerish (not) look at your posts and can see you love travelling. I am sure you will enjoy your break immensely, and find a few magic spots near to your bro's place.

Will trouble you for aromatherapy queries for birth of dd closer to the time !
