For walks and views this is hard to beat. Plenty of space for everyone, and easy walking despite the inclines. Unfortunately Pay and Display machines are installed, but parking is close to points of interest.

Fantastic place for a day trip - the sea, wind, rocks, fossils and lots of walking. We walked 15km from the railway station (Eastbourne) to Beachy Head over Cow Gap and back to the station.
