A warm welcome to our beautiful corner of the South East.

Our District has so much to offer: we're surrounded by the beautiful South Downs National Park, and close to miles of unspoilt coastline and beaches. Our towns and villages are full of history, culture and a spirit of independence. If you are a food and drink lover, a family, an outdoors adventurer or an arts lover, we know you’ll love our district as much as we do.

We hope to see you in Lewes District soon
