Al Fresco Dining in East Sussex. When the weather finally gets better (apparently there’s a heatwave on the horizon?) and the sun begins to shine on our beautiful countryside, what better way to soak it up than with a lunch, coffee or drinks en plein air?

We’re lucky to have so many beautiful venues on our doorstep that offer great al fresco areas.
