There’s no better place to experience the turn of the seasons than 1066 Country. Absorb autumn's vibrant colours in the great outdoors with a walk or cycle around Bewl Water Reservoir, Bedgebury Pinetum - the UK's national collection of pine trees - or wander the grounds of Herstmonceux Castle Estate.
The 1066 Country Walk, a 31-mile long route from Pevensey to Rye, allows you to march in the footsteps of William the Conqueror, and now includes ten specially-commissioned sculptures based on the Bayeux Tapestry.
Rainy day? Take part in a teatime masterclass at the newly opened British Tea Museum in Hastings, or head for Bexhill's iconic De La Warr Pavilion.
For a taste of 1066 Country, Webbe's Cookery School in Rye have a range of one-day courses this autumn, from game cooking to wild mushroom foraging. Or there's no better time than autumn to visit Sussex's many Vineyards.
Head over to accommodation pages to find your perfect stay. That could be under the stars, at Downash Wood Treehouses, or in a boutique B&B, like The Knowle at St Leonards.
