We’re staying at Varne Ridge. One of my DC swim coaches swam the English Channel, and she recommended Varne Ridge, the “Olympic Village of the English Channel”. It’s in a gorgeous area up on a cliff that overlooks the ocean. We’re staying in a “caravan” (trailer).
They have walls of covered in names and times of swimmers who have stayed here and crossed the channel, it’s been awesome to look for the names of people I’ve met!
