Bed and Breakfast Description |
| |
|
Our inn was one of a string of coaching inns on the London to Brighton postal service route. A horn was carried on each coach which was sounded to herald the arrival of the post. Hence the name, 'HORNS LODGE'. At the Horns Lodge we have two guest double rooms. All of our rooms have fitted vanity units, Tea & Coffee making facilities & Colour Television. We have a cosy and inviting cottage style restaurant serving traditional, home cooked fayre. All the food we serve is made from locally sourced ingredients and is freshly prepared to order. |

South Chailey Attractions |
| |
Conveniently positioned on the A275, the Horns Lodge is close to the towns of Lewes, Burgess Hill and Haywards Heath. Throughout the district there are dramatic changes of scenery from towering chalk cliffs on the coast, and the whale-backed South Downs behind, to the wooded countryside of the north. This corner of England has always been at the forefront of the country's defences, from early raids by the Vikings and the Roman Legions, through the invasion of William the Conqueror, and forays by the French, right up to the dog fights of the Battle of Britain.
Just a few miles east of the District boundary, at Pevensey William of Normandy landed in 1066 to claim the English crown. To the Saxon town of Lewes he sent a favourite noble, William de Warenne, who built an imposing castle and a great priory. Lewes, the county town, is picturesquely set on a spur where the River Ouse meanders through the South Downs. From the old heart of the town, dominated by the ruins of the great Norman castle, there are enchanting glimpses through twisting medieval streets and tiny twittens, of the swathe of chalk downland and of the water meadows stretching south to the English Channel at Newhaven. The town of Newhaven lies on the shortest land and sea route between London and Paris, and is one of the major cross-Channel ports.
Neighbouring Seaford is a quiet, informal holiday resort offering an ideal touring base for the surrounding countryside and coastline, including attractions such as Seaford Head, the Seven Sisters, Beachy Head and the village of Alfriston. Away from the coast, the visitor will discover unspoilt countryside and picturesque villages offering the perfect setting for walking, cycling or simply enjoying some light refreshment in one of the many country pubs. Whether you are visiting the historic county town, the varied coastline or exploring the surrounding countryside, a warm welcome awaits you. Discover for yourself the delights of Lewes district. |
