A huge welcome to the very first issue of insideSUSSEX Magazine!
was a bird’s nest all the same. Intrigued? You’ll have to read about my
incredible getaway to The Bell, Ticehurst (p70) to find out more.
Sussex is arguably one of (if not the) best areas of England, with miles of
beautiful coastline and rolling countryside, world-class shopping, fresh
local food and gourmet restaurants, endless activities and exciting events.
Of course I can’t forget to mention Mother’s Day; after all, without mum
where would we be? The special day is just around the corner on 15th
March, so we’ve put together a selection of gorgeous gifts for all tastes
starting on page 77.
We’re here to celebrate all this fabulous county has to offer by featuring
the best of Sussex every month. And the best part? It’s free!
insideSUSSEX will be free to pick up at over 300 distribution locations
across the county, and also free to read online. From fashion to food to
weekend getaways, insideSUSSEX is your all-encompassing lifestyle
guide to getting the most out of Sussex.
I truly hope you enjoy the first issue of
insideSUSSEX. I’d love to hear your
comments, suggestions and ideas
about future features. Join us on

Our 100-page launch issue is packed full of springtime pleasures, from a
day out at the magnificent Bodiam Castle (p60), to garden-inspired
fashion (p46), to one of my favourite things in the annual calendar: food &
drink festivals. Head over to page 43 for a look at some of the
lip-smacking events we’re most looking forward to.
Until next month...enjoy!
