Cathy's Say

These delightful Sussex cottages are close to Beachy Head, with its impressive white cliffs and gently undulating downs. It is an area of outstanding natural beauty and tranquillity which belies its proximity to the busy seaside resort of Eastbourne. From the cliff top there are spectacular views of the famous red and white-stripped lighthouse as well as stunning views over Eastbourne and the English Channel. From here you can walk into Eastbourne or head west to Cuckmere where the South Downs meet the sea. The Cuckmere River meanders through flower-rich chalk grassland towards Cuckmere Haven and its quiet beach at the foot of the Seven Sisters cliffs.
