City/town information
Lewes is a beautiful county town in the heart of rural Sussex.
Its medieval streets, old English churches and tiny twittens (a Sussex word for alleyway) allow visitors a glimpse into the true essence of bygone Lewes. Although surrounded by chalk cliffs, the townscape is dominated by the remains of a Norman castle and is also home to the handsome townhouse of Anne of Cleves (fourth wife of King Henry Vlll). Lewes also claims host to numerous contemporary art galleries and historic and special interest sites, including the once mighty Priory of St. Pancras - a casualty of the dissolution of the monasteries.
Lewes contains many small, specialist, independent retailers. Bookshops, boutiques and antique centres sit alongside individual craft workshops, and the restaurants, cafes, and pubs offer delicious choices all year round with real emphasis on local produce.
The South Downs is only a mile away from Castle View Apartments and offers innumerable walks and stunning scenery. There are also excellent travel links to London and Brighton via Lewes Station, which is a 5-minute walk from the flat.
