With the quaint seaside resort of Pevensey Bay on its coastal border, and the large-town amenities of Eastbourne less than 20 minutes away – the ancient village of Pevensey offers a beautiful work-life balance, excellent day-to-day essentials and more.

The Pevensey Haven river runs along the north of the village, and in the centre you can find a good range of everyday amenities including shops, pubs and restaurants, a leisure centre, and entertainment. Less than 15 minutes away by car, you also have the regular farmers’ market in Hailsham, and the larger shops and seaside delights of Eastbourne. For local history and culture, Pevensey Castle, which dates back to Roman times, is an English Heritage site that’s an ideal day out for all ages.

For nature further inland, you have the local habitat of the Pevensey Levels – a protected nature reserve that features lush wetlands, and is home to many rare animal species. And of course, within 10 minutes, you have access to the High Weald National landscape, which includes the historical sites of Bodiam and Scotney Castle.
