Location:

Sunshine House enjoys a fabulous beach front position in Norman’s Bay, between Pevensey and Bexhill-on-Sea. It is peaceful, unspoilt and enjoys panoramic sea views for as far as you can see, a truly idyllic location. Trips to Eastbourne, Hastings, Rye, Winchelsea and the gorgeous Camber Sands are all very easy.

Eastbourne is bursting with activities. The Beachy Head Story is a new exhibition that allows visitors to enjoy the beautiful landscape of Beachy Head and the South Downs. You can visit theme parks, zoos, find out about the area’s history, discover 1066 castles, museums and excellent art galleries. There are also local vineyards to visit where you can taste delicious wines and other produce and farmers markets. The South Downs National Park offers acres of beautiful scenery and the seaside towns offer outstanding dining and shopping opportunities. Eastbourne’s marina is amazing. It offers brilliant walks around the harbours and a buzzy waterfront complex. The fabulous Towner Art Gallery is transforming its outdoor walls with a large scale colourful geometric mural.

Soaring above Bexhill’s seafront, the De La Warr Pavilion is a modernist masterpiece that feels fresh and contemporary. It was built with thanks to the 9th Earl de la Warr.

Hastings boasts a fascinating history.The town was attacked by the French during the Hundred Years War and in 1377, a second attack all but destroyed the town. The Old Town’s architecture ranges from Medieval to Victorian with one of the oldest buildings, the Court House, being built around 1450. The town boasts many passages and narrow streets known as the twittens, many cafes, bars and restaurants and some excellent shops and art galleries. The Castle, originally built by William the Conqueror, lies in ruins at the top of West Hill and can be visited using the steepest funicular railway in Britain. The Hastings Museum and Art Gallery boasts an exhibition dedicated to American Indians, Grey Owl, an early conservationist who came from Hastings and John Logie Baird who pioneered television in Hastings. There are many architectural and cultural attractions including a theatre, parks and gardens. Hastings hosts man events including the Hastings Half Marathon, the Jack in the Green Festival, Hastings Beer Festival, Coastal Currents and the Old Town Carnival.

Rye, a Medieval citadel huddled against invaders and the sea, is today home to a myriad of art, curiosities and cosy pubs and restaurants. They serve the best that Sussex has to offer. Built on timeless tales and smuggled secrets, Rye offers charm and intrigue with nooks and crannies to explore and distant views across Romney Marsh to enjoy. St Mary’s Church tower is open to the public and offers the best viewpoint to show the warm terracotta roofs of the many timbered houses. These ancient, characterful buildings, cobbled streets and secret passages attract film crews in search of historical settings for period productions. The Rye Castle Museum was originally a bottling factory and now boasts a unique 18th century fire engine as well as relics from the town’s shipbuilding past. The Rye Harbour Nature Reserve has a wonderful network of criss crossing footpaths on the saltmarsh and shingle ridges with fabulous views across to Camber Sands and the cliffs of Hastings Country Park. It is a bird watcher’s paradise with five hides where you can watch the wildlife. You can take boat trips or lessons in windsurfing, dinghy sailing or paddleboarding from Rye Watersports.

Camber Sands is a fabulous beach in the village of Camber. It is the only sand dune system in East Sussex, east of the estuary of the River Rother at Rye Bay, and stretches for three miles to just beyond the Kent border.

Those with an interest in art will enjoy visits to both Charleston House, a home of the Bloomsbury group in Firle, and Farleys Farmhouse near Chiddingly, the former home of the photographer Lee Miller and the surrealist artist Roland Penrose. Both are located within a 30-minute drive of Sunshine House.
