With crisp air and the possibility of a dusting of snow, winter in Sussex is a magical time to visit, especially during the festive season.
Whether you’re present shopping or bargain-hunting, you’ll love exploring our beautifully decorated towns and villages, popping into our boutiques and independent shops. And make sure you experience the joy of Christmas markets in towns like Lewes and Chichester, where you can find unique gifts, warm mulled wine, and seasonal treats.
For a cosy, Christmassy day out, visit iconic National Trust properties such as Bodiam Castle and Petworth House. These historic sites often host festive activities, including guided tours, traditional music performances, and craft workshops. Or why not enjoy ice skating at popular outdoor rinks, such as the rink at Brighton’s Royal Pavilion Gardens?
