Glynde village boasts a unique and storied past. For nearly five centuries, the majority of this village has been under the ownership of a single family.

Located to the east of Lewes and entirely enveloped by the South Downs National Park, Glynde provides you with breathtaking vistas of the Weald and the Downs, firmly establishing itself as one of the most picturesque villages in the county.

It has a train station and village shop but no pub!
