Leave the hustle and bustle of everyday life behind. Take your time exploring our enchanting countryside.
Take a wander through ancient Sussex Woodlands. Abbot’s Wood was once part of the great Saxon forest of Andredesweald, which stretched across the whole of the south-east of England as far west as Hampshire. Or bring stories to life at Ashdown Forest, the former ancient Royal Hunting Forest, and the setting for AA Milne’s Winnie The Pooh. Here you will find over 80 miles of footpaths to explore.
Traffic free paths along the Cuckoo Trail and the Forest Way Country Park are both former railway lines and ideal for walking, cycling or horse riding.
Birling Gap is part of the world famous Seven Sisters cliffs, one of the longest stretches of undeveloped coastline on the south coast. Take your time reflecting on the gleaming chalk and unspoilt views of dramatic coastline.
The High Weald is the fourth largest Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in England and Wales. As well as enjoying the beautiful countryside and landscapes, there are opportunities for walking, cycling, visiting attractions and rock climbing. Look out for rarer species of birds such as the fieldfare and the nightjar and shy wildlife such as deer and dormice.
