Where to go around South East England

As the thread title says, I looking for Ideas for a week off next week with the mrs.

We will be traveling from Sat-Thurs next week and could do with a few reccomendations on hotels and places to go.

Obviously with it being London and surrounding areas there is going to be lots of touristy places which tbh I am not to fussed about seeing, so locations outside of the city would be good. A few ideas i do have at the moment are..

Thorpe park (loads cheap tickets on ebay atm thanks to the Sun newspaper)
Ace cafe for a quick stop off
possibly heading down to brighton as well.


So I was wondering if anyone had any cool alternative places to go, also if there are any hotels that could be reccomended. Nothing has been booked yet so ideas would be very welcome

Sounds good, thanks for the reccomendations.

I would be more inclined to head out for some activitys and sporty things (seeing as we are both on a bit of a health kick atm)

Had a quick google for waterparks and simlar places but cant see anything.

also, seeing as we are traveling by car, is it reccomended to get a hotel nr a station or to drive everywhere and pay for parking.

Parking around here is pretty rediculous in places, so I imagine it could be quite silly down there.
