Tour Summary
Eastbourne
Stroll along the 19th-century pier and wide seafront promenades, taking in the fresh sea air whilst enjoying the panoramic ocean views.
Beachy Head

The dramatic 530 feet high cliffs of Beachy Head give stunning views over Eastbourne and the English Channel.

Bateman's
Bateman's is a 17th-century house located in Burwash, East Sussex. Surrounded by the wooded landscape of the Sussex Weald, this 17th-century Jacobean house, provided a much-needed sanctuary to renowned author Rudyard Kipling and served as an inspiration for his work. It was the home of Rudyard Kipling from 1902 until his death in 1936. The house was built in 1634. Kipling's widow Caroline bequeathed the house to the National Trust on her death in 1939. The house is a Grade I listed building. Bateman's is very much a family home that feels as though the family have just gone out for the day
