EASTBOURNE 8 DAYS - QUEENS HOTEL

Eastbourne is one of Britain's more elegant resorts, enjoying a glorious location on the South Coast. Because it is sheltered by Beachy Head and the South Downs it has an excellent sunshine record, always coming around the top of the sunshine league. It has a spacious promenade to stroll along and the world-famous Carpet Gardens line the seafront. Eastbourne has clean inviting beaches predominantly of shingle leading to sand at low tide and offering excellent bathing. There's plenty to see and do with first class shops, museums, carnivals, shows, concerts, dancing in the Winter Gardens and cinemas. There is also a large variety of sporting facilities, whether you want to play or spectate, such as boating, bowls, golf, putting, and walking on the South Downs.TOUR OPERATES SUNDAY TO SUNDAY

Battle was the site of William the Conqueror's victory over Harold. It is a lovely village with a famous abbey. Rye is one of the Cinque Ports and the home for many years of the novelist Henry James. Included in today's excursion is a vineyard visit and wine tasting.

Full Day Excursion to Brighton
We travel via the dramatic Devil's Dyke to the resort famous for its graceful Regency buildings, the exotic iron-domed Pavilion built by the Prince Regent, its two piers and the enticing series of byways, known as The Lanes, with their many small shops.

Full Day Excursion to Seaford, Newhaven and Alfriston
Travelling over the Downs to Seaford we visit the ferry port of Newhaven which played an important role in both World Wars because of its transport links, proximity to France and its defence fort. We then journey onto the picturesque Alfriston filled with small, independent shops such as the traditional Village Store. It is also home to the Clergy House and Gardens, built in the 14th century and the first building to be acquired by the National Trust.
