Beachy Head

Belle Tout Lighthouse

Beachy Head, with its dramatic white cliffs and gently undulating downs, is an area of outstanding natural beauty and tranquillity which belies its proximity to the busy south eastern towns of England.
 
Along with the Seven Sisters it is a haven for those who like to walk or cycle. It's also a great place for hang-gliding, mountain boarding, or for the rather less extreme sport of flying a kite.  It is easy to reach for a holiday, a weekend or a day away.

There are many historic and beautiful sites around the area, as well as the pretty village of East Dean with its good pub, shops and restaurant to visit for a complete change visitors are welcome to spend some time at the farm or the sheep centre.
