Cheap hotels On Isle of Sheppey
Leysdown will be the name that families will know, for generations it has been families choice for summer holiday vacations and with beaches amusements and an annual fair you can see why it's a holiday place to many. Sheppey has its many hotels guest houses and bed & breakfasts but it is mainly known for its holiday homes such as caravans and chalets.
Elmley Marshes is home to the Swale National Nature Reserve and you can see why the birds love this nine mile by four mile island.
Sheppey's northern edge is lined with good beaches, including a naturist stretch at Shellness. Sea views are splendid towards Whitstable in one direction and the Essex coast in the other. Most of Britain's imported cars arrive via Sheerness docks, an industrial port without a passenger service, so there's usually a large vessel coming or going to watch too. The isle has a long history of aviation development in England. It was home to Lord Brabazon's Royal Aero Club which formed in Leysdown in the early 1900s to popularise balloon-flying. The club took to the aeroplane with relish, and in July 1909 the Short brothers established Shellbeach Aerodrome on nearby marshland to accommodate six Wright Flyers, moving a few kilometres the next year to Eastchurch where a new more appropriate aerodrome had been built for the club. The Eastchurch airfield played a significant role in the history of British aviation from 1909 when Frank McClean acquired Stonepits Farm, on the marshes across from Leysdown, converting the land into an airfield for members of the Aero Club of Great Britain.
The Short brothers, Horace, Eustace and Oswald, built aircraft at Battersea to be tested at the site; later Moore-Brabazon, Professor Huntington, Charles S. Rolls and Cecil Grace all visited and used the flying club's services. Wilbur Wright and his brother Orville came to the Isle of Sheppey to visit the new flying grounds of the Aero Club. In 1909, Moore-Brabazon made the first live cargo flight by fixed-wing aircraft, by tying a waste-paper basket to a wing strut of his Shorts-built Wright aircraft. Then, using it as a "cargo hold", he airlifted one small pig. The Eastchurch airfield was also the site, in July 1911, of the competition for the Gordon Bennett Cup for powered air racing, attended by flyers from all over the world, and won that year by the American pilot C. T. Weymann.. A stained glass window in the south side of All Saints' Church, Eastchurch (built in 1432), was dedicated to Rolls and Grace, who were killed in July and December 1910 respectively. In July 2009, Eastchurch celebrated 100 years of aviation history associated with the Island. SkySheppey brought together a number of Associations and joined with many visitors to recognise the importance of British aviation history that started at Eastchurch.
