Cottages in Sussex

Sussex has something for everyone, whether you want to be part of the action in Brighton or to witness history with a trip to ancient battlegrounds such as Hastings, Battle, and Rye. Take time to explore the national parks and exotic gardens or stroll through the bluebell woods, ideal for romantic days out. Sussex is a county of rich landscapes from the white cliffs of the Seven Sisters to the rolling South Downs and Weald. The county embraces everything from popular coastal resorts at Bognor Regis, Eastbourne and historic Hastings to the cathedral town of Chichester and Lewes, which is still dominated by its Norman castle. It's such a diverse county that you're never short of finding something to do, from walking and cycling the Downs to re-living history lessons at Roman Fishbourne and Chichester, before relaxing in a cosy country pub with a local beer and some great food, then head back for a well-deserved rest in your cottage in Sussex.
