A leisurely morning started our holiday. After Northumberlan and Cornwall, going to Hull was just a short 3 hour hop with only a couple of stop offs. We are staying in Sunk Island, which is completely flat and as I've been told about Cambridgeshire, it boasts an amazing amount of sky because it's so flat. Sunk Island is exactly the same. To get to Sunk Island we drove through an amazing tree lined road which went on an on, then we arrived at Woodlea Cottage.
It's amazing to think that Sunk Island started as a sandbank in the Humber Estuary. Then during the reign of Charles 1, the land was drained to form the land today, full of agricultural land.
A sign of a good cottage is if you can imagine living there permanently, and the answer is a big yes. It's a modern cottage with wooden floors, very high end décor, view onto the chicken coup on the garden and fresh eggs, bread and milk awaiting our arrival!
