Location
About the surrounding area of Hailsham Country HouseWith this fabulous location just a few minutes from the coast in the beautiful county of East Sussex, Hailsham Country House offers guests an ideal spot for enjoying the countryside, the seaside, and a few fabulous towns in between!
You’re right on the cusp of the stunning High Weald Area of Natural Beauty, a vast, pristine landscape dotted with medieval manors, ancient woodland and picture-perfect scenery. Indeed, a maze of rolling countryside, abbeys and battlefields, medieval villages, bustling market towns and gorgeous coastline, East Sussex is also the most forested county in England! Diverse, inspirational landscapes and breath-taking views from the endless tranquil and unspoilt settings make this an incredibly enticing county right on the south coast of England. And that’s not to mention its 90 miles of stunning beaches and vibrant towns!
With 1,750 hours of sunshine per year, ‘Sussex by the Sea’ offers some of the sunniest and cleanest beaches in the UK, including the traditional English seaside town of Brighton, whose beach is renowned for its packed seafront. And then there’s Eastbourne, Bexhill-on-Sea, Hastings and St Leonard’s, to name but a few. Take a trip to Hastings old town, the shipwreck heritage centre and flamingo adventure park for the perfect day out!
There are endless fabulous homes and gardens to visit, including Great Dixter House and Garden, Michelham Priory and Sheffield Park Garden with an array of stunning colours, exotic flora, magnificent gardens, elegant lakes and even a sculpture trail! Meanwhile, for something a little more lively, one of the major seaside resorts of Britain, Brighton, less than 40 minutes away, offers some funky nightlife, offbeat shopping in alternative boutiques and traditional British seaside fun! Brighton has a rich, varied and exciting nightlife, and in May holds the Brighton Fringe Festival abounding with street performers, theatre groups, musicians, guided walks and other lively and fascinating events.
For an active day in the sunshine, stretch your legs on the South Downs Way, which traverses from Eastbourne to Winchester along England’s newest national park, the South Downs National Park, with 1,600km2 of breath-taking views and hidden gems. Indeed, if you’re a keen walker or cyclist, there’s 3500km of walking paths, bridleways and scenic roads, including the well-establish routes of the Cuckoo Trail, and the incredible Forest Way.

We loved the property. Emma who greeted us was lovely and very helpful. Also we were so impressed that the kitchen was especially so well equipped! Absolutely everything you needed or could think of was there! We spent a lot of time cooking and socialising in the kitchen - it was so warm and had a great feel. Thank you!

Awesome
As excellent as I have shown above.. Lovely welcome pack and welcome from Emma. It felt like a very luxurious home from home rather than a holiday rent. 12 yr old g'children can be hard to please but the twins deemed it Awesome.
