The rivers and streams that join near Barcombe provide blissful scenery for a hike through here. The Sussex Ouse Valley Way long-distance footpath leads you through this serene place and, if you're hungry, stop off at the Anchor Inn. With outdoor decking and little boats moored up, it's about as relaxing as country pubs get.

The Anchor Inn pub nearby is a great place to stop off as part of a longer walk. It has some lovely views and you can hire a boat
