Cliff Royal

Lets walk the South Downs Way
The walk passes through or very close to many historic and typically English towns and villages as it wends its way from the Saxon capital of Winchester to the famous white cliffs near Eastbourne.
It will take several days to walk the South Downs but it can be very rewarding. Local tourist authorities have many lists of B&Bs along or close to the route.
The South Downs Way starts from Winchester, a Cathedral city which is can also be known as the Saxon capital of England.
Within approximately 10 miles of parts of the South Downs Way is Portsmouth the historic home of the Royal Navy. On a visit here you should include the narrow streets and ramparts of the historic old city and port as well as climbing to the top of the town’s stunning millennium project, the 170-meter-tall Spinnaker Tower. Portsmouth began as a Saxon fishing port, to its role as the home of possibly of the world’s greatest seaborne fighting forces.
The Cathedral City of Chichester is also a great place to take a break from a South Downs Way hike. But if you want to do some walking, you can circumnavigate the old town on the Medieval Walls. It will take about an hour to stroll the one and a half miles. The walls are built on Roman foundations going back to the 3rd century. In the middle of it the 1000 year old Chichester Cathedral is a definate must to visit. After visiting the Cathedral, maybe you could stop off at one of the local pubs, the Old Cross is a firm favourite.
Chichester is also home to the Chichester Festival Theatre and to Goodwood where depending on upon the time of year you can experience thoroughbred racing, motor circuits and golf. Some are of the opinion that Goodwood is one of the prettiest racetracks in the world.
Then comes Bosham, this is one of the prettiest reaches of the lovely Chichester Harbour.
Amberley lies next to the River Arun’s water meadows and Arundel, on a hill above it, are typically classic English castle towns on the South Downs Way.
A visit to Arundel is a must. There are some quaint holiday cottages in the town which are available to rent, or maybe just book one for a weekend break.It boasts the beautiful 1,000-year-old, Norman Arundel Castle, still home to the Duke of Norfolk, and its amazing 19th century Cathedral — when viewing them both from the distance, they look like something out of a fairy tale book.
Later, you can actually stay in a castle in Amberley, a tiny, mainly 16th century hamlet with lovely thatched cottages.Amberley Working Museum an abandoned chalk quarry relates the local history of the industrial revolution.
Arundel has many excellent restaurants or try the truly eccentric Black Horse Pub in Amberley, one of its best traditional village pubs.
Brighton has been made very fashionable in the early 19th century by the Prince Regent (later George IV). The palace of the Prince Regent, the Royal Pavilion, is one of Britain’s most extravagant and ornate landmarks.
Brighton is one of the liveliest seaside resorts, famous since the Prince Regent made it fashionable in the early 19th century.
We finally end our trip at Eastbourne.
This is certainly one of the most sedate of England’s South Coast seaside resorts. It is known for its lovely beaches, these include a few of the only sandy beaches along the south coast.
If you continue to walk the South Downs Way as far as the Eastbourne loop, you will see the magnificent Seven Sisters and Beachy Head itself, a really dramatic and rugged chalk cliff and a really amazing place to end this picturesque journey.
