In August 2017, I rented a bike and bought a train pass to go around Southern England. I traveled from London to Folkestone, Hastings, Windsor, then back to London. From Folkestone, I biked along the Heritage Coast and down highway A20 to Dover. In Hastings, I biked around the city from the East Hill to Bexhill. Then, in Windsor, I saw Windsor Castle, St. George’s Chapel, and Eton College.
To stay within my budget, I stayed at affordable, local hotels
Folkstone: The Carlton Hotel was $60/night and right across from the coast
Hastings: The Highlands Inn was $65/night
Windsor: The Crown and Cushion was $95/night and five minutes from the Windsor Castle
