This tour has now departed but don't worry, we've got lots more relaxing holidays to choose from.
Relax and enjoy a leisurely stay by the sea in this popular South Coast resort. Our hotel is right on the sea front so you can spend your free time perched in a deck chair on the beach with a good book, stroll along the Pier, explore the quirky shopping area known as ‘The Lanes’, visit the exotic Royal Pavilion or enjoy a bird’s eye view of the resort from the i360.
There's a special summer exhibition at Leonardslee Gardens from the Surrey Sculpture Society, for 5 weeks only you'll be able to see over 80 sculptures strategically located within this beautiful setting.
Tour ref: A3330
Monday
Travel to Brighton and enjoy complimentary tea/coffee on arrival at the hotel.
Tuesday
After a leisurely morning, step back in time during our afternoon visit to the fascinating Amberley Museum on the South Downs. It’s dedicated to the history of local industry and crafts and features a diverse collection ranging from a narrow gauge railway to a print workshop and traditional crafts like the smithy and the pottery.
Wednesday
Enjoy Brighton at leisure. Your hotel is within 5 minutes walk of some of Brightons main attractions including The Pier, The Royal Pavilion and The Lanes. Walk a little further along the seafront and you can experience Brighton from 450ft on the British Airways i360 Viewing Tower!
Thursday
Enjoy a morning journey on the Bluebell Railway through pretty the Sussex countryside. Your return ticket covers the 11 mile heritage stretch between Sheffield Park and East Grinstead, passing traditional stations along the way. Then on to Britain’s largest “Prairie,” or “Naturalistic,” garden. This 8 acre garden is surrounded by mature oak trees with large planted borders that you’re encouraged to roam amongst.
Friday
Depart, after breakfast, visiting Leonardslee Lakes and Gardens, on our way home. These Grade I listed ancient gardens reopened in 2019 following a huge restoration project. In the summer months you can expect to see flowering Polar Bear Rhododendrons and sweet smelling Viscosum Azaleas. Take time to enjoy the walkways through parkland, forest areas and the Victorian Rock Garden, passing seven tranquil lakes and looking out for wandering wallabies, deer, stoats and thriving bird species along the way.
