Touring holidays in Sussex

East and West Sussex are a lesser-known corner of southern England, easily reachable from London and immensely beautiful. The two counties offer a fantastic array of delights from the scenic High Weald to the undulating green-and-white chalk hills of the South Downs to the stunning coast including the Seven Sisters cliffs, the festive seaside pier of Brighton and the charms of ancient Rye. From east to west, Sussex is dotted with ample castles and boasts a plethora of wonderful famous gardens. Its a land of picturesque villages and rural scenes, ever multiplying vineyards, many charming old buildings and more sunshine than anywhere else in the U.K. We love its array of varied and characterful hotels and old inns and its many historical nudges from the Neolithic and Roman times to 20th Century writers and arttists, but most of all we love its sheer beauty.

With some interesting new boutique hotels and a few castle stays, a tailor-made touring itinerary here offers a colourful mix.
