Pevensey

William's Landing Place

This unspoilt pocket of coastline has played a vital role in the history of England. Pevensey has been on the frontline during Roman and Norman times and was central to the defence of the country from the Spanish Armada, Napoleon and Hitler. Today, Pevensey is one the South Coast's leading locations for windsurfing and water sports and is within easy driving distance of Hastings and Bexhill.

Nearby Herstmonceux is a stunning village steeped in medieval history, as its impressive castle shows. Connect with science at its observatory, where you can explore gravity, astronomy and time.
