A linear, half-day countryside walk in England starting at Hillside Avenue (bus stop), East Sussex, about 3km (roughly 2 miles) long and suitable for families with children, prams/pushchairs. This is a nice Sunday walk, enabling you to build up a good appetite for a slice of cake and hot beverage in one of the lovely tea shops that Alfriston has to offer. We tackled it with a seven year old, a 4 year old and an 8 mnth old in an all-terrain buggy. Start: Hillside Avenue (bus stop), OS Grid: TQ498002

Beautiful Spot!
We even spotted the actor who plays Mr. Weasley in the Harry Potter movies! What a lovely part of the world.
