Forest Row is one of those East Sussex villages that still feels like a proper countryside retreat, even though it's within reach of London. Nestled on the edge of the Ashdown Forest, it's full of character and greenery, with a relaxed pace and a strong sense of community. The village has a creative, slightly alternative feel to it, with independent shops and quirky cafés dotted around the centre.

Historically, Forest Row grew up as a small settlement serving travellers and forest workers. It sits near what was once a key route between London and the south coast, and over time became a popular stopover. The railway came in the 19th century, boosting the village's profile, though the line closed in the 1960s. That said, the charm stuck around, and it's now known for its strong links to Steiner education, local arts, and a somewhat eco-conscious way of life.

The village itself has plenty to offer. There are local pubs with proper Sunday roasts, delis with handmade treats, and an active local arts scene. It's got all the essentials—GP, chemist, post office—and some unexpected extras, like yoga studios and organic markets. The community is known for its events, from school fairs to talks and workshops, and the nearby forest paths are ideal for long, muddy walks with the dog or a peaceful solo stroll.

Further out, you've got some real gems across East Sussex. Ashdown Forest, of course, is practically on the doorstep—made famous by the Winnie-the-Pooh stories. Then there's Sheffield Park, the Bluebell Railway, and towns like Lewes and Eastbourne with their blend of coast, culture and countryside. Whether it's a castle ruin or a chalky coastal walk, there's never a shortage of things to explore.

Getting to Forest Row is easiest by road. It's well linked via the A22 and B2110, making it handy for both East Grinstead and Tunbridge Wells. East Grinstead's the nearest station, with regular services to London Victoria. Gatwick is the closest airport—just over 30 minutes by car—making the village surprisingly accessible for travellers. Buses connect Forest Row to nearby towns, but it's best explored on foot or by bike if you're staying local.

East Sussex is a county of contrasts—seaside towns, historic market centres, and rolling countryside all bundled into one patchwork of pretty villages and dramatic views. From the South Downs to the coastline at Seaford and the pebbled beaches of Hastings, it offers a bit of everything. The pace is slower than its bustling neighbour to the west, and it's full of spots where history, nature and community all mingle.
