This home is tucked into the picturesque village of Eastbourne, only moments walk to the beach. The neighborhood playground (important to our crew) was well appointed and in a beautiful setting. Local shops were charming and the beach combing was fabulous. The drive into the city wasn't too far and we took the route around the harbor, as it was full of gorgeous scenery. My favorite part of our stay, however, was not the lovely city of Wellington, but was the friendship forged with Stan and Carol. Beautiful people who took our quite overwhelming clan into stride and welcomed us as family.
