Itinerary
Description
Pack your Santa hat, bring a little tinsel cheer and leave the turkey to us on this special getaway! You’re invited to experience a pre-Christmas party amongst the beautiful scenery of the south coast in the heart of Sussex. Eastbourne is a lovely setting for our break with its picturesque coastline and famous seaside attractions. Throw in a visit to Brighton and a photo opportunity to see the striking Seven Sisters at Beachy Head and this is the perfect way to blow away the cobwebs and get in the festive spirit.
Coach
Day 1
After joining the coach, we make our way to our hotel and check in.
Day 2 – Brighton & Beachy Head
Our first point of call today is Brighton, a bustling seaside resort known for its laidback attitude, iconic tourist attractions such as the Royal Pavilion, the Lanes and the Palace Pier. Afterwards, we take a scenic drive along the coast, stopping to admire the spectacular chalk cliffs at Beachy Head. Later we enjoy a traditional ‘Christmas’ dinner with all the trimmings back at the hotel.
Day 3 – Optional excursion to Chichester & Arundel (£11pp)
Our optional full-day excursion gives us the opportunity to visit two towns in the heart of West Sussex. First up is Chichester, a Roman cathedral city where you can see first-hand evidence of a Roman settlement, from the Roman Baths and the city wall to an old Roman road which links Chichester to London! Next, we head to the picturesque town of Arundel. Nestled around a fairytale castle, the streets are chock-full of cosy tearooms and curious antique shops. Most of the town dates back to Victorian times, while the castle has been home to the Dukes of Norfolk for centuries.
Day 4 – Alfriston & Lewes
Today we visit Alfriston, a charming village located at the foot of the stunning South Downs. In this idyllic setting, we can expect spectacular views as well as a wide range of galleries, cafés, and shops to explore. We then reboard the coach and head to another beautiful village, Lewes. Home to Lewes Castle, a working brewery and beautiful medieval architecture, we can enjoy the relaxed ambiance and maybe even see a horse drawn cart delivering beer passing by!
Day 5
After breakfast, we check out of our hotel and head for home.
