Lewes is a buzzing, historic market town. It has a superb Norman Castle, an 11th century Priory, independent small shops, fine real ale pubs, restaurants and cafes, its own Harvey's brewery and of course the famous Lewes Bonfire night celebrations. The surrounding villages are pure Sussex at its best. Country pubs, open fires, Morris dancers, chalky walks, enchanting gardens, not forgetting the stunning coast of the Seven Sisters and Beachy Head.
We offer over 20 delightful B&Bs and self-catering possibilities to choose from. We are all independently inspected, offer a friendly welcome, a comfortable stay and delicious breakfasts. Most have free Wi-Fi.
