Sussex Country is a lively mix of city, coast and countryside.

Explore some of the finest walking, cycling and horse riding country in the British Isles. With such a diverse panorama, from heathland to valley, countryside to coast, forest to meadow and with two thirds designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty you are assured of breathtaking vistas wherever you turn.

Discover a wonderful legacy of history. Iron Age hill-forts, magnificent medieval castles and spectacular stately homes, see the spot where King Harold fell at Battle Abbey, gaze in awe at Brightling Needle or visit Batemans the home of Rudyard Kipling author of “Jungle Book.”

Admire beautiful gardens all year round, from the first hints of colour as the early spring flowering bulbs start to emerge at Bordehill Gardens, through the blaze of autumn hues
at Sheffield Park Garden and onto the winter’s architectural splendour with vibrant holly berries at Wakehurst Place Gardens.

Tempt your with senses with fine Sussex fare. Fresh fish straight off the boats on the Sussex coast, the famous Banoffi Pie, invented at the Hungry Monk Restaurant in Jevington or indulge in a drop of the local brew at the Cider Centre, Hartfield.

Splash your way through a thousand years of fishing heritage in Hastings, boasting Europe’s largest beach-launched fishing fleet or maybe you would rather roll up your trousers and head for a refreshing paddle on one of the many Blue Flag beaches. Whatever your choice, action packed fun-filled days are guaranteed in Sussex Country.
