Cycle Rides
The location of Little Marshfoot is ideal for cyclists, as there is easy access to the Pevensey Levels which are flat and more or less free from traffic.
Alternatively the Cuckoo Trail which is completely traffic free is only half a mile away.
Those who may prefer a more challenging ride can travel north out of Hailsham and climb up onto the High Weald, travelling through unspoilt villages.
Walking
Walk across the Pevensey Levels, along the South Downs Way or through the ancient forests of the High Weald – there are so many beautiful places to visit, and other than on Sundays or Bank Holidays you find yourself very much away from anyone and everyone.
