Location

The Ridgeway is widely regarded as one of Friston’s most prestigious residential addresses. Nestled within the South Downs National Park, the village is renowned for its outstanding natural beauty, tranquil surroundings and strong sense of community. An extensive network of walking, cycling and bridle paths can be accessed directly from the property, including Friston Forest, the South Downs Way and the iconic Seven Sisters coastline.

Despite its idyllic rural setting, Friston is conveniently positioned for Eastbourne, Seaford and the historic county town of Lewes, with cosmopolitan Brighton also within easy reach, offering all the attractions of a vibrant city without the congestion and density of urban living.

The area is particularly well served by highly regarded schools and colleges, cultural attractions including Glyndebourne Opera House, and cross Channel ferry services from nearby Newhaven. Combining the appeal of country living with excellent connectivity, Eastbourne’s mainline station is approximately 90 minutes from London, with onward links across the South East and to Gatwick Airport.
