Past to Peace: The Forgotten Village, Cliffs of Calm & PeaceHaven Coastal Escape

**Event description** Join us for a scenic and adventurous hike starting at Sothease station, winding through the peaceful South Downs, and uncovering the hidden hamlet of Telscombe, tucked away from time and crowds. We’ll continue on to Peace Haven cliffs, and onto Peace Haven meridean line, then striking coastline toward Newhaven, where cliffs, sea views and a super long pier reward the journey before the pub. Expect rolling hills, secret paths, and a mix of countryside charm and coastal drama. A perfect day for nature lovers, curious wanderers, and those craving a lesser-known trail with a stunning seaside finish.

👻 Деревня призраков

**✨**Добро пожаловать в пещеры **[Chislehurst](https://chislehurst-caves.co.uk/)** — грандиозный подземный лабиринт, где каждый поворот хранит новую тайну! Эти удивительные пещеры, протянувшиеся на 35 километров, — вовсе не творение природы, а результат многовекового человеческого труда. Начиная с эпохи неолита, люди добывали здесь кремень и мел, не подозревая, что создают одно из самых мистических мест Британии. Римляне оставили здесь свои следы, саксы продолжали разработки, а в XX веке пещеры обрели новую, совершенно неожиданную жизнь. Самая драматичная страница истории пещер началась в 1940 году, когда во время бомбардировок Лондона сюда хлынули тысячи людей. Здесь каждую ночь 15 000 человек спускались под землю, платя по пенни за вход, чтобы найти спасение от взрывов. Так на глубине 30 метров возник настоящий подземный город с электрическим освещением, часовней, больницей и даже кинозалом. 🏡 **Деревня Pluckley** в графстве Кент по праву носит титул столицы привидений Англии. Это место, где история переплетается с легендами, а реальность — со сверхъестественным. Согласно Книге рекордов Гиннесса, Pluckley считается самой посещаемой призраками деревней в Британии, где обитает от двенадцати до четырнадцати привидений. История этих призраков уходит корнями в глубину веков, и многие из них связаны с трагическими событиями. Например, призрак цыганки, сгоревшей заживо на мосту Пиннок, или призрак школьного учителя, повесившегося в переулке Дики Басса. Исследования доктора Симона Мортона из Университета Западной Англии раскрыли, что многие из этих историй основаны на реальных событиях, таких как смерть Сары Шарп, «Леди с кресс-салатом», которая сгорела в августе 1911 года, или самоубийство Мэри Энн Беннетт, «Леди Роуз Корт», в 1862 году. Прогулка по Pluckley — это путешествие в мир тайн и загадок. Начиная от церкви Святого Николая, где в часовне Дерингов видят странные огни и слышат стуки из склепа, до «Угстра страха» (Fright Corner), где призрак разбойника повторяет свою последнюю схватку. Деревня также известна своими уникальными округлыми окнами, которые были установлены в честь сэра Эдварда Деринга, спасшегося от круглоголовых через такое окно во время Гражданской войны. После призрачных уголков Pluckley идеальным местом для отдыха и обеда станет паб The Black Horse. Этот паб, расположенный в самом сердце деревни, является не только частью её истории, но и уютным уголком, где можно насладиться традиционной английской кухней. Паб, построенный в XV веке, славится своими атмосферными интерьерами с деревянными балками, каминами и свечами, создающими романтическую обстановку. В меню представлены блюда из локальных продуктов, включая сытные ростбифы, огромные йоркширские пудинги и веганские опции. The Black Horse — это идеальное место, чтобы закрепить впечатления от посещения самой haunted деревни Англии, наслаждаясь качественной едой и исторической атмосферой. Этот уголок Кента обязателен для посещения любителями загадок и традиционной английской культуры. 📝 План поездки: 📍 **08:45** **Встреча** у отеля **[Hotel Novotel London West](https://goo.gl/maps/isJaR8654Y62)**, 1 Shortlands, W6 8DR (рядом с Hammersmith Station) 📍 10:30 — 12:00 Пещеры [Chislehurst](https://chislehurst-caves.co.uk/) ([от £8](https://chislehurst-caves.co.uk/plan-your-visit/#)) 📍13:00 — 17:00 Столица привидений Англии – деревня Pluckley, время на обед в [The Black Horse](https://theblackhorseatpluckley.co.uk/) 📍 17:00 Отправление 📍 19:00 London, Hammersmith 👣 Продолжительность путешествия зависит от погодных условий и дорожных пробок. ✅ Включено в стоимость: ⚜️ Аудиогид на русском ⚜️ Тур-менеджер, говорящий на русском и английском языках ⚜️ Транспорт, организация мероприятия ⚜️ Профессиональный водитель с наградой RoSPA Gold ⚜️ Администрация и помощь во время путешествия ⚜️ НДС и все налоги, комиссия платежной системы (карта/банк/PayPal) ❌ Не включено: ❌ Входные билеты: цены указаны в плане путешествия ❌ Питание во время путешествия: индивидуальный выбор ❌ Трансфер в место встречи и после завершения поездки ❌ Остановки автобуса для посадки/высадки пассажиров по пути следования ❌ [Страховка](https://www.coverwise.co.uk/) в случае травм, потери багажа и личных вещей, отмены тура в последнюю минуту ❌ [Evebus Club](https://evebus.com/ru/evebus-club/) – переносы броней без потерь, [выбор посадочного](https://evebus.com/ru/seating-plan) места ❌ Экскурсовод: £20 с человека при условии набора группы от 6-ти участников 🎒 Что взять с собой: ☑️ Воду/еду по желанию ☑️ Фотокамеру и зарядку для телефона ☑️ Мелочь для чаевых и отличное настроение 🙂 ☑️ При необходимости не более одной ручной клади весом до 10 кг (40x30x20 см) ✳️ Обо всем остальном мы позаботимся.

Looking for Travel Companion? Post it here

Kindly understand that This is Not an online event. We created this for the people to communicate with each other (in the comment section) to find their travel mates. However, since the Meetup site requires a date and time. We constantly have to update the date and time to keep the event alive. **Dear friends,** If you have plans to travel somewhere in the world, and you are looking for a travel mate/roommate, you can post it here to let others know, and maybe you can arrange to travel together. It would probably be a good idea to meet up before deciding to travel together but at least this will give you a chance to find a like-minded travel mate. **How to Choose the Right Travel-mate** 1. Have some common interests. 2. Avoid people who tend to extremes. 3. Agree on expenditures before you leave. 4. Make sure your personalities 5. Friends aren’t always good travel companions 6. Don’t go backpacking with a luxury-seeker 7. Make sure you’re able to communicate 8. Agree on a similar budget 9. Avoid picky, crazy and whiny individuals 10. Test each other on a short trip 11. You don’t have to be like a couple of inseparable lovebirds Good Luck and Cheers, Ree & Smyl

North London’s Green Corridor: Highgate, Hampstead and Ally Pally fireworks

Join us for an interesting, varied walk through North London’s historic leafy trails, culminating near Alexandra Palace, where we can stay for a glimpse of one of London’s finest November firework displays. Starting in Finsbury Park, we’ll pick up London’s longest linear nature reserve, following a former railway line and passing a folklore-inspired sculpture that has become its unofficial guardian. We’ll climb through Highgate, with its attractive village streets and famous cemetery, before reaching Parliament Hill for views across London to St Paul’s, the Shard and Westminster. We’ll cross the ponds, meadows and woodland of Hampstead Heath to Kenwood House, the elegant neoclassical villa that is home to the Iveagh Bequest and paintings by Rembrandt and Vermeer. We’ll finish by passing through Highgate Wood, a 70-acre section of the ancient Hornsey Wood, before heading towards Alexandra Palace for a well-earned drink or two and the option to stick around for the fireworks later. **NB** The event does not include entry into the official firework venue.
