Hotels in East Sussex — What to Expect
For a classic English coastal escape with a dramatic edge, look to East Sussex. The soaring white cliffs of Seven Sisters and the historic battlements of Hastings Castle define its landscape. Brighton, with its iconic pier and independent shops in The Lanes, offers a lively counterpoint to the serene South Downs. You can spend your days walking the Cuckoo Trail, exploring the medieval timber-framed houses of Rye, or simply breathing in the sea air along the promenade at Eastbourne.
The county suits almost every traveller. Couples find romance in the historic towns, families love the beaches and attractions like Drusillas Park, and walkers have the entire South Downs National Park to explore. For easy access to both coast and countryside, consider staying in Lewes or the seaside towns.
