north shore superior
The KLR's run around the top of Lake Superior....the sat image showed clear sky until Nipigon.
We hit some fog near Terrace Bay.
the ride is a great one around the top of superior
the area near RedRock /Nipigon we can see the rain coming.
I signal to Thorne that we should suit up with rain gear. I wonder why she chose to pull over at such a poor location for stopping. She had no choice, as the float in the carb stuck and the engine flooded out. I dug out the tool kit while she put her rain suit on. I drained the bowl, and got the bike running, but it soon began overflowing gas again.
The KLR carb acted up a bit more before returning to normal once again. We made it back to our base camp near Thunder Bay.
We are taking a break from travel, and will work on the motorcycles, as well as get some R&R to prepare for the next leg of our journey.
A few servings of Finn Pancakes
We took a short canoe trip through our backyard to recharge our mental batteries
It has been nice to relax at home, and enjoy the backyard, but now its time to resume the FreeRide. The Hayseed segment of our ride should begin in the next few days.

Hayseed Freeriders
After a nice break at Basecamp it was time to roll west.
Noden Causeway outside of Fort Frances
Rainy Lake
Lunch break at the marina waterfront in Fort Frances.
Bikes are clean, lotsa fresh supplies on board, stove fuel food, etc....things are good
Near Emo we hit the backroads. Working our way to hwy 71 and up to Nestor Falls.
and Souix narrows, really nice country
As soon as we hit the Trans Canada hwy off 71 we immediatly got off of it onto a side road into Kenora(Longbow Lake Road) and went through town,
eventually hitting Hwy 1 just until we could do the 44 through Whiteshell
We got into Winnipeg and bunkered down in our tent in the backyard at Justins. Later that evening we rode
across town to visit Backroader and Jimtoe for a bit
The next morning we took off north to the big lakes region going across the narrow part. It was a less than spectacular route
We took the turnoff for Duck Mountain and found our 2nd free campsite in 2 days

Ya $30 to set up a tent. $12 camping with hot showers is pretty rare nowadays
As soon as we got the tent up, it started raining. In the morning it was kinda spitting, and everything was wet.
We managed to get some hot stuff on the campstove, fold up the wet gear and beat it down the dirty gravel road.
By the time we hit pavement we were pretty muddy.
looking back at the dirt road.....
the sky cleared a bit, and the road was straight now.
We stopped after crossing into Saskatchewan. Time for a hot lunch and dry our tent out.
Thorne finds a faucet, a pail, and washes some of the muck off the bikes.
nice pole building to do lunch
we conitue onwards across Saskatchewan on Hwy 15. Hardly any traffic at all....KLR country for sure.

We got our gear dried out and had a nice lunch. It was time to cross the great prairies.
we were in Togo where we dried our stuff out, and took hwy 357 to 8, then #10 through Yorkton and eventually out to 52 and then 15 to Outlook.
we got to Outlook at 6 pm and were wondering where to set the tent up. Not many trees to go hide out behind.
This old truck pulled up. Thorne says, get a photo of it. The guy pulled up to chat.
I casually asked him if he knew of a spot we could set the tent up and rest for the night. I never used the word"camping".
He said he had a youth camp, nearby with hot water, but we should go to his home for tea 1st. So we followed him, met his wife, and had some tea.
After getiing to know them a bit we accepted invitiation to stay in the basement for the night. It was OK.
Bikes under the carport for the night.
The next morning was a bit cooler but dry. We were heading for Alberta. Not many pics of Saskatchewan, but a small dirt detour I did grab a few shots.

We come into Drumheller on the scenic backroad.
entering the badlands of Drumheller, side trip to Wayne......
Our general routine is to camp for free somewhere off the main highways, and have lunch in the larger urban/metro areas.
We will get some supplies for the backcountry, and fill up our waterjugs. Thorne used her Ipod to find the nice free campsite, while we ate at mcdonalds. She just did a search on free camping and a nice spot by the reservoir showed up.we headed down the backroads, through Rosebud, and pulled up to this excellent site.

Riding the backroads into Calgary..the locals use oilpatch stuff to decorate the entrance to the ranch
We stopped in Calgary for lunch then continued on to Cochrane to visit friends there.
It was time for some service on the bikes...oil change,air filters, tire etc.
The next day it was time to relax and pedal-bike along the Bow River.....
Nice bike trail leading into town. Our friends knew just where to go......
$6 ice cream cones with a line-up to get one...must be good....
we casually rode back to the house.....
It was good to see my friend again. A lot has changed since we rode around Lake Superior a few years ago.
With the bikes serviced up, and a nice rest day...we rolled out the following day.
54km/h in a 30.......speed trap just before we got to the Trunk Road
This is the local playground for people out of Calgary...lots of forest roads and nice backcountry. We wanted to ride the Forest Trunk Road as its called.
It was pretty dusty on a Sunday with all the RV traffic coming out of the boonies
after we went in a ways, the traffic thinned out. The scenery got better too.
I thought it was a cool road to go down...for sure.
We were pretty beat from the gravel and needed to shut'er down for the day. We opted to get a pay campsite at Fish Lake near Nordegg,just south of hwy 11 rather than keep going towards Jasper Park, and find the campgrounds full, or the free ones non-existent. Stop a bit early and be on the sure side.
The next morning we would be going into the mountains...

We got a good start, and headed west on Hwy 11.
The scenery was great, so was the weather. I talked to a local guy and he said there is all kinds of free camping up near the lake that we could have went to last night. I could see the places on the way by.
pretty spectacular as we enter the mountains after the long prairie section......
looking back, my buddy is riding along......

Heading North to Jasper
The tent was wet from a heavy dew. It needed to get dried out. The sky was beginning to turn.
we pulled the stove out and made tea right in the parking lot. Thorne found a bag laying nearby, it had a phone in it, and some personal items. She walked down to the tourist info place and turned it in. A good deed done, maybe the road gods will be on our side....karma.....
Thorne suited up for the ride to Robson
Looking back at the rainclouds we rode through
Mount Robson BC
We head south towards Kamloops.
Too much pavement for the KLR's, we check the mapbook for some routes. looks like a dirt road from Vavenby to Barriere
Stop for fuel and ask about the road. Its getting later in the day, I hope we dont get into a jackpot.
we will come down to Barriere from the north on this map
my gps mapping didnt have the detail for these roads....
Trying to decide which road to take. The most beaten path isnt always the right way.
Thorne was a bit nervous on the loose stones, and took it slow. She caught up to me at the top of the hill as I tried to decipher the route.
I decend down a long steep hill with loose rocks. By then I know its the right way, but I also know that it will be a bit much for her on the heavy KLR. I wait for a bit, then go back up. I catch her part way down, taking it easy and slow. She made it down ok without dumping the bike, but told me she probably wont ride it back up if we have to turn around.No pics of the bad hill. The road got a bit worse, like nobody was using it much.
eventually the road got better and better the further we went.
we passed by some nice free campsites
Eventually we made it out to Barriere and the main highway again.There was a cop with a radar gun, but we didnt get busted on the KLR's
Rolling south towards Kamloops. Our little bush detour took a bit longer than I thought.
Our free campsite in Kamloops. We enjoyed our stop at reletives place.
We rolled towards Vernon and Hwy 6 going to Nakusp.The rain was gonna get us.
the clouds ahead, we put on our rainsuits.
We get to the ferry crossing, Thorne waits for it to get across.
We talk to a guy on a KLR going to the GS Challenge
Soon as the ferry docks on the other side, Thornes bike won't start. I help her push it off the boat.We try bump starting it, and monkey around for 20 minutes before taking the side cover off and wiggling the connection on the battery. It fires up.We head out, it starts raining, and the sun goes down.

We headed north from the ferry dock towards Nakusp. It was a wet ride, and we pulled into the gas station, under the canopy. We met a guy on a Valkrie who was waiting for the rain to stop. We waited a bit, then it rained harder, so we made our way to the HU Rally site. On longer bike trips, there are epic high points, as well as really low points. This was one of those low points. It was nice to be off the highway, but it was dark, we were starved, wet and tired and miserable. After some arguing we went into the baaseball dugout nearby for shelter. We used the shelter to unroll the tent and set it up partially, and I set a tarp up to cook some rations on the stove. We carried the tent out to our site with the fly on, and it was dry.The rain just wouldnt let up. Eventually we were able to go to sleep.
The next day the sun came out and we began to dry our stuff out. Lots of riders began to show up for the rally.
We went for a ride up north....2 up on the 07 KLR
Turned east onto the Halfway bush road
We got to the steep hill, rode down and parked. Then walked down to the river
The hippie culture was quite evident down here
The blue tarps cover the hippie tent camp.They got soaked last night too.
The hot springs were pretty good, lotsa people coming and going that day.
Waterfall on the highway on the way back to Nakusp.
Some big league riders were showing up
Checking the schedule for tonights presentations. I watched some great slideshows.....
The next few days we spent at the HU Rally, and we were within walking distance of downtown. It was good to relax for a few days.
While walking uptown we met our Valkrie buddy. He said he was leaving today.
He said his bike really goes......
My bro showed up on his $100 bike. We helped him set up his tent
He really enjoyed the rally, winning the slow race, the Half and Half draw and meeting all the riders
With the rally over we headed out to Kaslo-New Denver hwy 31A and 6.....some great riding.We had to boost Thornes KLR.
When it was running lights were dim. Not Good.
Good thing about KLR's= you can buy a battery on a Sunday in any town. The battery is common on garden tractors ,snowblowers,ATV's etc
Problem solved in Nelson BC
Onwards to Castlegar for some visiting there.
Supper at the Casino
Free camping
We made a 2 night stop here.I went for a morning walk and a bear came up behind me on its hind legs. I managed to get back into the yard safely
Exploring afternoon ride north of Castlegar
Nice supper back at the hideout. Steak is for the rich, KLR riders settle for pork
The next morning it was time to roll further west. We met a man at the lookout who was running away from home. His family had posters out "looking" for him, as they wanted to lock him up in an Alzhiemers home. He was grabbing for his freedom....sad kinda...
We rolled south, then west Trail Rossland Fruitvale Christina lake Oosoyos.
looks like rain....we were able to ride out of the system
getting late in the afternoon, trying to score a free site. I look on the mapbook and see "Old Hedley Road" cuts off and runs parallell to the highway.
It yeilds a fine site by the river.
Breakfast of champion KLR riders
With facilities
nice view
Morning shower with river water was a bit chilly
Back onto Hedley road

We rolled onwards with a stop at Hope Slide. Looked like it was gonna rain.
At Hope we got onto #7 to go into Vancouver. We should have stayed on the Trans-Can as it was slow going through Mission etc....
It was a nice route til the traffic got thick, closer to the city
We had a place to stay in North Van, up on the hill.
The next several days were spent doing the tourist tour. We left the KLR's in the garage and used transit.
View from the home up on the hill
Water taxi into the city
Stanley Park
It was good to tour the park, next we went to Granville Island.
we stopped at the Honda shop nearby, saw the new bike there
Using the bus was a good way to get around
Hiking from the bus stop back up to the house.....
We were in Vancouver for 3 or 4 nights. The last day was spent going to REI and this museum
It was a nice exihibit. Free admission on donation ( pay what you can)
We said goodbye to our hosts, and headed up towards Whistler. The KLR's had done it. From Coast to Coast ! Thorne had always wanted to ride across Canada, and she accomplished it...A true C2C may have included Van isle and Nfnld, but none the less, Cape Breton to Vancouver.I finally got to see the east coast this summer, and its a place I want to go back to again for sure.
Its a pretty nice ride up to Whistler, but some nicer stuff is up ahead.
Nice older GL at the pumps in Pemberton....
The ride report is pretty ho-hum, but the actual ride itself was good. I'll try and let some more drivel flow, and keep it going. I want to remember it so this RR will be good for that anyways.Some more off-highway stuff is coming up,and some tools get used also.

Among the key findings in the first study was that 22 people, whose functional MRI scans showed increases in apparent diffusion coefficient scores of over 45 percent, lived at least 10 months longer, while some 17 with coefficient score increases over 60 percent, lived at least 17 months longer.
Kamel, an associate professor at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine and its Russell H. Morgan Department of Radiology, says that cholangiocarcinoma is often diagnosed at such an advanced stage that patients only have on average six months to live. "By the time our patients become jaundiced, start turning yellow from bile buildup and seek medical help, it's almost too late," he says. "They have no time to waste on failed treatments."
The second study, also at Johns Hopkins, tested the scans on 26 men and women, ages 37 to 79, with islet cell carcinoma, a well-known pancreatic cancer. Researchers analyzed some 215 tumorous lesions in these people, scanning shortly before and one month after the same initial treatment for their cancer.
Kamel says physicians have more treatment options with islet cell carcinoma and can switch people from chemoembolization to chemotherapy with either drug Sunitinib or Everolimus.
Results in the second study showed that for 78 tumors, which responded well to chemotherapy, functional MRI scans produced apparent diffusion coefficient score increases averaging at least 70 percent, while in the 137 tumors for which treatment was not a success, increases in coefficient measures averaged less than 40 percent.

Key Lime Crinkle CookiesBy Jennifer McHenry on April 16, 2015I frequently use limes in my kitchen, but more often in cooking than baking.

This hotel is old and pretty cool. Haunted is what they say. No events for me.
Also, no A/C. No amenities but a decent enough space to stay.

Historical Traveler Reviews Hotel Majestic San Francisco
Great hotel with charm and class
This hotel is beautiful. It is a great place to stay if you enjoy a room with charm and class. The location is excellent! The street is quiet enough to get a good nice sleep but close enough to walk to almost everything. We had a great time, the staff was helpful and knowledgeable. I would definitly recommend this hotel.
Definitely pay the $19.00 a day to have your car parked in the garage. Parking is just to difficult to find and can sometimes be quite tricky on steep slopes.
Public transportation is nearby, both buses and trolleys. We walked almost everywhere but if you dont plan to do that, definitly buy the all day passes which cover all the types of transportation available. If you do plan to walk it is about a 20 minute walk to Union Square and about a 30 minute walk to fishermans Wharf.
Quiet location with charm in the center of town
I was very happy with our stay at the Hotel Majestic. It was close to the city attractions without the noise of Union Square. The hotel has Jr. suites that are worth the extra expense. This hotel has old world charm with friendly service.
Great Stay! Friendly Service!
Great staff, charming Victorian style rooms, very clean. Breakfast consists of a fruit platter, a choice of cereals, muffins, bagels, toast, and croissants, hard boiled eggs, and oatmeal.
Hotel is located 10 minutes from Fisherman's Wharf (via #47 bus just two blocks away), 10 minutes from Union Square (via 2, 3,4) and is very accessible via BART from SFO.
Surrounding area is residential. Of note: bathtubs are old-style (on four legs), and not ideal for anyone with mobility problems since the tub is quite high off the ground).
Delightful Stay!!!!
Highly recommended and beautiful place. I wanted the best 5 star hotel in San Francisco for Valentines weekend and I chose this place based on the reviews given. Boy am I glad I did, the victorian style is just beautiful. If you can afford it definately go for the one bedroom suite. You get more of homey feeling rather than a hotel feeling. Would I stay there again. You bet!! It is a positive 99%. Okay for the one percent not added was because there is no coffee makers in the room and I'm a coffee lover and prefer the coffee in the room before I step out.
But hey it was avaliable downstairs at the wonderful morning continental breakfast and the workers were very nice!! And for the evenings there is Starkbucks within walking distance. Very nice area, not threatened by the homeless or pan handlers. Short walk to cable cars and convienient bus stop is right out front! Parking is easier to find on the weekdays rather than the weekends on the streets but definately pay the $19.00 day rate rather then getting a ticket. The bellman told me the ticket is $35.00 if you get one! Have a great stay!!!!
It couldn't have been nicer
I picked the Majestic on the basis of the reviews here. I was travelling with my boss, and I was nervous about picking the hotel, since I don't know San Francisco, I didn't know what neighborhood we should be in, and I didn't know whether it would be easy or difficult to get around to the appointments that we needed to go to. The Majestic was perfect. I travel a lot and I have never seen a cozier, more welcoming hotel. It's in a fun and lovely mansion full of bay windows in a very hilly area, so you feel like you're really in SF. The rooms are full of really beautiful antiques, the accessories are luxurious (I loved the good linens and the thick bathrobe), the people are really helpful. The neighborhood is lovely for taking evening walks in, and is near to an area with lots of bistros and intriguing but not too costly restaurants. I really have never seen a more charming hotel. My only regret was that I wasn't conducting a fine romance there, because there couldn't be a more romantic venue. Oh and breakfast is good. My boss adored it too and said that the only thing he would improve is that the shower was a little low for him (he's quite tall). I was ready to move to SF and open up the winter office in the hotel. We were both sad to leave the Majestic.
Beautiful Victorian Hotel
We stayed at the Majestic in early Jan. 2004 while awaiting the birth of my first grandaughter at a nearby hospital. The hotel is beautiful and cozy, full of architectural details and beautiful real and reproduction antiques. The room (a jr. suite) was spacious and nicely appointed. The canopy bed was the most comfortable I've slept on in any hotel. I only wish I had one at home just like it. There are yummy snacks and a few varieties of wine in the afternoon and a very good breakfast in the morning. A cafe or small restaurant would be a nice addition. The parking is a huge bargain, 19.00 a day with 24 hr in-out . The staff was pleasant and helpful. There is a beautiful intimate bar, The Avalon which shouldn't be missed. The only negative things that keep me from going with a 5 is the noise from people walking in the room above. It continued all night on our first night. If I stayed again I would ask for a top floor room. Our room had a lovely gas fireplace that did not seem to work correctly. The directions were unreadable. We could have called for help, but it should be obvious or in the bedside hotel directory.
Everything considered I would stay again!
Exellent Hotel with Delightful Staff
I stayed there last June with my nephews (age 11 and 14). I gota great deal from the internet which included a Junior Suite for aprox $85-90.
The room was great. Every afternoon they had wine and hors douvres available. The bar waiter really kept my nephews feeling welcome with making sure tehre was soda and snacks for them as well. The room inclued a continental breakfast each morning. The staff went above and beyond to make my stay go along great. Location is nice with a bus stop right out the door and both food and theatre right down the street.
One of my best hotel stay was at the Majestic. Charming building, more than just charming and luxurious rooms, wonderful staffs made my stay here one of the best experience I had from a hotel. Located in a quiet residential area, but all the famous spots of town are easily accessable by 5 min. car ride. I'd say I had more pleasant stay here than I did at Mark-Hopkins, or the Fairmont SF.
Trip Back in Time!!
My husband and I rented a Harley motorcycle to tour California for our 25th anniversary. The Majestic was wonderful. The room was spacious and very clean. There is so much history in this building that it took you back in time. It was beautiful and romantic. Everyone was helpful and courteous. Parking was very resonable compared to other places and very safe. (which was important to my husband with the bike) The dining area was only open for breakfast and only half the room was utilized. Somewhat disappointing that dinners were not available, but there is a menu you can order food to your room during night hours. The little touches, like a basket of goodies, a stacked refrigerator, and cookies each morning left on your bed made you feel very important. I would highly recommend and can't wait to return someday.
Wonderful hotel
I almost hate to let the secret out, but these people deserve to be recognized. This place is great! Beautiful rooms, sweet staff, everything about our week there was perfect.

So the Smith's have well and truly conquered San Francisco and it's now time to move on. Next we pick up a car and begin our road trip through the US National Parks for the next 6 weeks.

Are You Man Enough? Shark ChallengeRead MoreThe marquee event of Shark Fest 2011, the fifth annual Are You Man Enough? Shark Challenge pits teams of anglers against one of nature?s most fearsome predators in a two-day fishing competition that awards bragging rights and $15,000 in prizes to its victors. Armed with a bucket of chum and a thirst for adventure, teams depart Cape Harbour at 9:30 a.m. on Saturday to spend the next 12 hours earning themselves 100 tournament points per shark caught, with bonuses awarded for the biggest hammerhead landed, biggest bull shark landed, and most congenial shark thrown back, followed by a 10 p.m. results announcement. On Sunday, the top five teams return to the docks to do battle in a shotgun-started sudden-death contest in which teams scramble to assemble 16 feet of aggregate shark in front of thousands of spectators in order to claim the grand prize. Teams are responsible for knowing the tournament schedule and for providing their own boat, bait, and fishing equipment, as well as two active cell phones for sending back proof-of-catch videos and at least one fisherman-notary to inform captured sharks of their legal rights.5703 Cape Harbour DriveCape Coral, FL US

Lip'em N Grip'em Fishing ChartersRead MoreCaptain Nate Maynard may just as well have been born on a boat. Growing up in South Florida, he spent much of his youth studying the waters off Pine Island Sound, Charlotte Harbor, and Matlacha and San Carlos Passes, learning the patterns of the prized catches lurking beneath. As he got older, Maynard tested his expertise by entering the tournament scene, refining his approach for fishing the area's expansive shallow flats, bays, and outer-island passes. With Lip'em N Grip'em Fishing Charters, Maynard imparts his knowledge to all levels of anglers during guided outings. Supplying all equipment and preferring live bait such as pinfish and shrimp—but willing to use artificial lures based on the availability of live bait and clients' preferences—the captain leads parties on fishing excursions for hauls of South Florida's many species, including redfish, snook, and trout. For fisherman seeking bigger trophies, Maynard motors his 22-foot, 225 horse-power Sterling boat toward waters home to tarpon, shark, and flounder shaped like Academy Awards. Captain Maynard operates by a "no fish, no pay" policy to demonstrate his integrity toward clients. In addition to guiding, he also takes guests on sunset cruises and wildlife excursions such as dolphin and manatee tours.:m]]3551 Sand RoadCape Coral, FL US

I am able to clone any repo to my PC through SSH in cygwin(x-server) but it is not working with HTTPS.
When I try:
git clone https://github.com/gmarik/vundle.git ~/.vim/bundle/vundle
It stay in following forever and no error displayed.
$ git clone https://github.com/gmarik/vundle.git
Cloning into 'vundle'...
If I change HTTPS to SSH, it works.
The reason I worry about this is that I assume this is resaon why my Vundle not working.
I am using Vundle in my pc (whcih is working on my mac).
When I try
BundleInstall or
PluginInstall, it will stuck on plugins whatever is github repo and there is no error display. I think this situation is similar to when I try to clone repo.
Can anyone help me with this problem? Thanks!!!!

Natalie Jaresko: steering Ukraine back to economic health
Reform-minded Natalie Jaresko has had a tough baptism in her role as Ukraine's finance minister. However, she is determined to demonstrate the safety of the country's banking sector and show that Ukraine is still an attractive investment destination, as she tells Stefanie Linhardt.
Forces at play to reshape Indian banking sector
With state funding on the decline, and new technologies and more stringent regulation both increasing, the Indian banking sector is undergoing a significant period of change. New players are entering the market, making it even more difficult for the state-owned banks, which are already struggling with deteriorating asset quality and incoming capital adequacy targets.
Giorgi Kadagidze: stabilising Georgia's currency climate
In an economy that is highly dollarised and in which the local currency has gone through a bout of devaluation, Georgia's central bank governor, Giorgi Kadagidze, has his work cut out. However, in taking a long-term approach, rather than looking for any quick fixes, he is confident that the country can achieve its currency goals.
Jiang Jianqing: ICBC embracing new Chinese landscape
Jiang Jianqing, the chairman of Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, explains how the largest bank in the world in capital, profits and assets is dealing with China's economic slowdown, structural reforms and new privately owned, tech-savvy entrants in the banking sector.
Puerto Rico's banks enter survival mode
Growth in Puerto Rico's economy is sluggish, and its banks have been struggling to find profitable areas. However, a round of mergers and acquisitions – some of them enforced – and opportunities overseas mean that the island's lenders are finding some ways to expand.
A smaller focus: what the future holds for GE Capital
GE Capital was once responsible for more than half General Electric's profit. So why is the conglomerate busy dismantling the international assets of its financial arm?
Germany sticks to the script
Many German banks had their fingers badly burnt in the financial crisis, having disastrously expanded into areas such as Spanish real estate and global shipping. As a result, the country's private banks, sparkassen and landesbanken have largely reverted to type, happy with unspectacular but predictable growth in an oversaturated domestic market.
The state of play: India's banks in 2015
The Indian government may be keen for consolidation in the banking sector – driven by a desire to see the country's lenders figure among the world's largest banks – but internal resistance to such changes, from bank employees and their unions in particular, continue to thwart such activity. On top of this, India's lenders are struggling with non-performing assets, which has proved a blight on their profits over the past 12 months.
Al Baraka chief looks to a bigger and more harmonised Islamic finance market
Adnan Ahmed Yousif, the president and chief executive of Bahrain-based Al Baraka Banking Group, believes that the scope for international expansion for Islamic finance is huge, and that improved oversight combined with scholarly jurisprudence is the key to a more harmonious global structure in the market.

|Key Info
Gorgeously romantic detached annexe with stunning views across an area of outstanding natural beauty. Generously proportioned studio room with french doors to large private balcony with tree growing through it. Spiral staircase to downstairs kitchenette and shower room. Access to beautiful garden shared with the owner's family which backs onto open fields. Self catering.
Tucked away in historically rich 1066 country it is ideally located for walking, horse riding, cycling and painting. There is a strong arts and crafts movement locally and there are plenty of good pubs that serve excellent food within easy reach. For nature lovers there is an abundance of local bird life and the nearby marshes and levels on the way to the beach at Pevensey (15 minutes by car). 5 mins from the South Downs National Park it is within easy reach of Eastbourne, Tunbridge Wells, Hastings, Brighton, Ashdown (Pooh Bear) Forest and Forest Row Country Park. There is fishing at the local trout farm, golf, tennis, a windmill, Herstmonceux Castle and a Science Centre. Other nearby attractions include the Bluebell Railway, Sheffield Park, Michelham Priory, the White Horse at Alfriston and Long Man at Wilmington.
It's on a tiny little lane with trees meeting over the road in places. There are lots of public footpaths including one that goes through next door's land and down through fields to the woods. Dogs that don't attack cats are welcome for an extra £5 a night, so long as the owners do no let them run loose unattended in the garden (especially near the vegetables), leave them locked in on their own or forget to make use of the pooper scooper!
Treetops is an ideal retreat or lovenest - it's wonderful space for getting away from it all and right into the countryside; to relax and enjoy the beauty of nature; to heal, create music or art or to study. It's very much a cosy country property rather than a stylish hotel setting but it's nicely and very comfortably furnished in rustic style. Horses clop along the lane outside and birdsong fills the air. There is a farmer along the lane who has equipment in use and large vehicles during the week sometimes so it's more reliably peaceful at weekends. The owner is a music teacher who lives in the main house with one child. There's a pergola with a built-in barbecue and seating which you are welcome to use or share should the owner be there at the time of your visit. It's possible to have the fridge/freezer stocked with a variety of locally sourced food on request including meat from the farm shop and wonderful cheeses and vegetables. Similarly should you require a bottle of chilled champagne on arrival this can be arranged with the owner.
For children over 5 the owner has 2 temporary beds (foam folding chairs with sheets, pillows and duvets) which can be made up in the eaves and which have occasionally been used for extra adult guests. The garden is ideal for kids, with a brick-built Wendy house and a wooden climbing frame/swing/slide set and more swings and hammocks from the trees, including one suitable for adults from the major oak in the front garden. There are two ponds protected by mesh and fencing respectively. Babes-in-arms are also welcome. A high chair can be provided on request but there are no stair gates so it's not suitable for toddlers. There is a £10 per head per night charge.
Music (piano, guitar, ukelele, singing & theory) lessons can be arranged onsite as well as art and crafts activities in the owner's spacious new art studio. If you would like to have an art/music holiday for a larger group there is room for camping in the garden and a campfire area with logs to sit on - please inquire for further details.
Although smoking is not allowed inside, it is permitted on the balcony.

"A real find ~ A relaxed treehouse ~ style retreat, beautiful countryside, ideal for a couple."
Oh what a discovery this was!... A tree~top studio, in a lovely English garden in Sussex. .We only had three nights, but it certainly made an impression. The weather was perfect and it was just like playing treehouses, only more comfortable and very romantic. For somewhere really unique and different it is not at all expensive...and it is looked after by a very friendly and talented young Mum who is a singer/performer/ music~ teacher. We particularly enjoyed sitting out on the wooden balcony with our books and glasses of wine ~ a leafy, relaxing and private little outdoor retreat. There's a tree growing through the platform~ in fact it partially supports it~ and peaceful views over the garden.. The balcony is accessed through French doors at one end of the main upper living room.. The main room is a generous loft ~ style space, with a pine bed, and small pine table/dining area plus squashy sofa. Its an easy place to get settled if you only have a short time for a break. The main feature here is the fabulous view from two huge Velux roof windows which you can fully open for more of the outdoorsy, treehouse vibe! The span of Sussex countryside visible is just gorgeous. A spiral staircase leads down to the cute kitchenette (well equipped and modern) and pretty, spacious shower room. The front door is an old~fashioned, split stable door which adds to the fun aspect, and from it you see the base of the big old tree that supports the balcony above, and have immediate access to, and use of the lovely garden. The setting is also leafy and lovely, down an unspoilt, tree ~ lined country lane with only a couple of houses and farmland all around.The whole of the South Downs is at your reach (you do really need a car for this place) and the coast and lovely villages very nearby..We only scratched the surface of what there is to do! ...Visited Herstmonceux, Pevensey Castle and Beachy Head. We came away thinking we will definitely return again and again ~ it would be perfect as a place to unwind at any time of the year (there's central heating) and so fun for a primary age child and parent(s) ~ or just big kids at heart, like us! Thank you to Sam for making us welcome : )
Thank you so much for taking the time to do this and writing such a glowing review. We'll be delighted to see you next time you visit. All the very best to you both.
