In the heart of 1066 country, swathed in the history of England's defeat at Hastings, stands Bodiam Castle. Cradled by the valley of the River Rother the surrounding village was once full of hop gardens, producing hops for Guinness. To feel the retro rural idyll, take a steam train or drink in the 14th century local pub. Walkers can take on the The Sussex Border Path from Bodiam campsites, or get carried away with hot air balloon flights.
