The morning sun catches the chalk downland above Eastbourne, and from here you can see why walkers return year after year to the South Downs Way.

Beamsley Lodge suits couples after a proper bed following a day on the trails, small groups wanting a mix of indoor comfort and something closer to camping, or anyone exploring the coast and Seven Sisters without committing to canvas. The pods offer a middle ground—your own space, a bit of shelter—while the guest house rooms are there if the weather turns or you fancy a softer landing. Dogs are welcome by arrangement, so worth asking when you book if you're bringing one along.

It's open all year, which is rare enough down here and useful for off-season walks when the cliffs are quiet. Campfires depend on conditions, so check when you arrive—sometimes yes, sometimes no. The setup's modest and unfussy; this isn't a site with a long list of bells and whistles, just a straightforward spot that gets you onto the Downs or the coast without fuss.

1066 Country Walk - South Downs Link

Connects the North Downs Way to the South Downs Way across the Sussex Weald, covering roughly 50 miles of varied terrain from gently rolling farmland to steeper ascents over the Downs. Mostly moderate walking with some challenging climbs, particularly at either end – not suitable for buggies and too long for young children in one go, though sections work well for day walks. Dogs welcome throughout on this linear route. Worth doing for the satisfying journey between two iconic long-distance trail
