Highlights
  • Seaford Beach - Our accredited tour guide will meet you at Seaford Beach and we will have 15 minutes or so to grab a light refreshment and to take in the scenery before we begin our walk
  • Seven Sisters Country Park - We will walk from Seaford Head to Cuckmere Haven with a stop at Hope Gap (tides permitting we will walk down to the beach). This offers splendid views of The Seven Sisters white cliffs.
  • Cuckmere Haven - We will walk along the beautiful river Cuckmere to the Seven Sisters Visitors Centre.
  • Saltmarsh Farmhouse & Cafe - We will stop for 45 minutes for drinks and lunch (not included) at the Saltmarsh Farmhouse Cafe. Walkers will also have the opportunity to buy souvenirs and to learn about the surrounding areas at the centre.

A short walk from the Visitors Centre reveals superb views of the meandering Cuckmere River. We will take a short (but steep) walk to Friston Forest and then decend back to Cuckmere Haven on the South Downs Way.

  • Chyngton farm - We will return to Seaford Bay via Chyngton Farm, passing huge fields of sheep and cattle. This offers our 3rd glorious view of the Seven Sisters. There is an opportunity to visit Brewsters Coffee Co. at Seaford Head if walkers wish to stop.

Our decent passes us through Seaford Head Golf Club (a favourite spot for our Guide, Matt!) Once we arrive back at the Seafront, Matt will be more than happy to take you to one of his favourite Public Houses and share a pint of one of many fantastic local ales.

Interesting and fun!!! - Hi. We did this walk a few weeks ago. It was thoroghly enjoyable. Matt was very knowledgeable about the area and made it fun as well. I didn't realise how much there is to experience in this area and how interesting it is. I will definitely do it again and take my teenage daughter with.
