If you want to see some of England’s most beautiful countryside and one the most recognisable sections of coastline, then perhaps it is time to visit Sussex in the South East of England.

East Sussex has many attractions and some of Britain’s most beautiful scenery. Visitors can explore the beautiful coastline of East Sussex with its iconic chalk cliffs that extend all the way to Kent.

Anyone who knows their English history well will be able to tell you that this is the place where William the Conqueror arrived in France and defeated King Harold of England in the Battle of Hastings. This victory saw William take the English throne.

Both West Sussex and East Sussex share a rich and deep historical past. Many of these influences can still be found in the region today. The most prominent examples are the castles and fortifications that resulted in the area’s strategic military location and its war-torn history. East Sussex is home to one of the most extensive concentrations of castles anywhere in England. Many of these castles have been well-kept or are being restored by the English Heritage charity.

These amazing historical buildings are a great reminder of England’s past and offer visitors the chance to see how people lived in medieval and middle-ages England.
