Itinerary

Eastbourne, Brighton & 1066 Country

With over 400 miles of shoreline, chalky cliffs and sweeping bays, England’s South Coast is just waiting to be discovered! Join us for a five-day holiday to the fine seafront town of Eastbourne and enjoy fantastic views from the East Beach Hotel along with included excursions to elegant Brighton, Beachy Head and 1066 Country.

Eastbourne, Brighton & 1066 Country

We head to Brighton, popular for its iconic tourist attractions such as the oriental-style Royal Pavilion with its exotic oriental architecture. Enjoy a stroll along the famous promenade or head to the ‘Lanes’ area, crammed with quirky boutiques.  Along the Sussex Heritage Coast stands Beachy Head. These dramatic 530-ft high chalk cliffs provide stunning views over Eastbourne, the English Channel, and the famous red-and-white lighthouse below.

The delights of 1066 Country await, stopping first in the coastal town of Hastings, which boasts the remains of the first castle in England to be built by William the Conqueror and a lovely preserved Old Town with half-timbered houses and narrow streets. Our next stop is Battle, the scene of William the Conqueror’s famous victory.

Our optional excursion takes us to the market town of Chichester, which began as a Roman settlement. Historic remains are still evident today in the town centre, spread around the market cross along with hidden gardens, secret waterways and a range of cafés. We then make our way to Arundel, with its fascinating past and contemporary culture. Nestled around a fairytale castle, the pretty streets are full of cosy tearooms, art galleries and quirky antique shops.
