A Rural Spot by Hailsham

Exploring the Area
The surrounding area provides numerous attractions for all ages. The South Downs and Weald afford excellent walks. Quaint villages and hamlets offer refreshment in the old inns and tea-rooms. Beachy Head and the Seven Sisters Country Park grace the chalk coastline between Eastbourne and Seaford. Brighton, Hastings, the county town of Lewes and a number of National Trust properties, castles, gardens and stately homes are all within easy reach.
From Railway to Trail
The Cuckoo Line railway, built in 1849, passed through Hailsham, but was closed in 1965. It now provides a beautiful scenic track and bridleway called the Cuckoo Trail, running from Eastbourne to Heathfield.
