Crowborough is the largest inland town in East Sussex and one of the county's highest points. It is easily reached from London by railway on Southern; a regular bus network connects Crowborough with other towns and villages in Wealden and visitors can also visit the coastal resorts of Eastbourne and Brighton. Details can be found on the East Sussex interactive bus route map.

Crowborough is situated on the edge of Ashdown Forest in the High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty where horse riding and walking are among some of the leisure activities to enjoy. It is also best known for its famous resident Sir Arthur Conan Doyle creator of Sherlock Holmes

The nearby Ashdown Forest was the inspiration for the Winnie the Pooh stories and the Victorian English nature writer Richard Jeffries was also inspired to write several essays based around Sussex whilst living in Crowborough in the late 1880s.

Crowborough Beacon Golf Club and the Boars Head Golf Centre are among the best golfing experiences in the south with beautifully designed courses in picturesque settings.

Why not follow the Crowborough Mystery Trail - a great way to discover Crowborough and its history.

Shop & Dine Well in Wealden

The Shop and Dine Well in Wealden campaign was first launched in September 2020 by Wealden District Council. The first phase of the campaign was funded via the national ‘Re-opening High Streets Safely Fund’ and focused on supporting Wealden high streets and shopping areas during the COVID-19 pandemic. The second phase of the campaign commenced in July 2021 and will continue to at least March 2022. Activity is focused on encouraging residents to continue to ‘buy locally’ and support local Wealden businesses including our high streets and local farmers’ markets and craft fairs. A wide-ranging marketing campaign is underway to encourage visitors to our town and village centres and support independent businesses.
