Sussex Holiday Cottages
Like Kent, the shores of Sussex are known as the 'Gateway to England' and still show the ancient signs of invasion through Roman, Norman and Anglo-Saxon remains. The coastline, backed by the green slopes of the South Downs offers some of the finest walking and cycling paths in England - Sussex holiday cottages afford great opportunities for exploring this idyllic region. For information about Sussex cottages see the feature rental agent following this guide.
Sussex's highest point, Black Down is still covered in heavy woodland of birch and chestnut, while across the boundary towards Surrey, lie the wild heath and heather-covered hills surrounding Haslemere and Hindhead. The landscape is romantic and quintessentially English
The reed and water Lillie rivers of Arun, Adur, Cuckmere and the Ouse flow through wooded valleys and rolling hills. The Sussex Downs, heavily wooded come within a few miles of Chichester and its magnificent cathedral. The downs are alsocriss-crossed by ancient pathways and offer Roman remains such as Fishbourne Palace, one of the finest Roman excavations in the UK.
The valley of the River Arun is a region of outstanding natural beauty. Sussex's longest river lazily meanders through pastures and gentle valleys, past the towns of Littlehampton and Arundel. The latter possesses a fine castle and 14 century church. Rent Sussex holiday book self catering holidays in Sussex.
