Parks & Nature
The views are fabulous. You can be in the Seven Sisters, not just see them. Chuckmere Haven, with it's Ox bow is just stunning. Belle Tout ( slid back from the edge of the cliffs, and now a boutique bed and breakfast) and Beachy Head lighthouses are a must see. You can see the coastguard cottages featured in Luther, and many other films. Have lunch in The Beachy Head pub or savour an ice-cream and look out to the Sovereign Lighthouse 12 miles out to see. East Dean has a charming pub on the green, The Tiger, as featured in Julia Bradbury's walks.
