The hotel is an ideal base for more serious walkers – you can set off across the South Downs Way inspired by the beautifully illustrated maps you’ll find in your room and armed with a picnic from the hotel’s kitchen. On warm sunny days, Birling Gap, with its acres of shingle and sand, is a marvellous beach, set at the base of the imposing sheer chalk cliffs and just a 15-minute drive from The Star – it is one of the longest stretches of undeveloped coastlines in East Sussex ✨ 🔄 Jules Knight 🇬🇧
