Sidley, always nice this time of year

 

[Grombleton]

Depends on what you want them to see, I guess.

Another vote or Arundel, has the Castle, lovely shops and some nice pubs.
Petworth House?
Somewhere on the seafront - Bognor, Brighton Pier?

 

[Curious Orange]

Amberley Museum though that probably isn't open...
Weald and Downland Open Air Museum
... or go and play Pooh-sticks

 

[El Sid]

If it's a rainy day you could stay in and put on a Stan Boardman DVD.

 

[BlockDpete]

Take them for a stroll round Lewes.

Visit the castle, and take them for a pint of Harveys.

 

[ThePompousPaladin]

North laine.

 

[Randsta]

British war museum

 

[Randsta]

Oh no better not mention that

 

[Raleigh Chopper]

As its a student I would not set foot outside Brighton.
Plenty for a day out and no city in Germany like it.
Pavillion, Laines/Lanes etc Pier.
Fish and Chips (Germans dont like soggy English chips, they like them crisp unt light brown) and maybe a really good pub with some music in the evening.
If this is on a saturday, sneak into the countryside or Arundel for a Sunday lunch with some quirky Sussex folk.
Sounds like a good weekend.
If you dont succeed you may go on ze list.

Arundel,...... and.. although not in Sussex...... Pompey Historic sites,....

 

[Cheggers]

Pirate's Deep

I had overseas visitors over Christmas/New Year. We went to

Beachy Head/Seven Sisters (a bracing walk)
Brighton - North Laine - bit of window shopping
Canterbury (obviously not Sussex but a pretty good place to take guests)
Tunbridge Wells (ditto)
Bluebell Railway (because I like it)
Rye (climb the Church Tower, wander round the town))
Hastings Old Town

I didn't want to to traipse into London so tried to make the best of what we have locally.

Go to somewhere near Lewes with a train station such as Southease. Walk over the downs into Lewes. Have a pub lunch. Watch Lewes play at the dripping pan. If you drove to where you started get the train back.

 

[Austrian Gull]

They live in the Alps and they were impressed by Beachy Head?

Landlocked country, Austria - most of them had never seen anything like Beachy Head.

Another vote for Hastings Old Town.

 

[DavidinSouthampton]

They live in the Alps and they were impressed by Beachy Head?

Not all of Austria is in the Alps.

And the Alps don't have the sea.

 

[vegster]

Bramber " Castle " ?

 

[GT49er]

The little Saxon church over the river from Beeding cement works;
Bury Hill (for the view);
Battle of Hastings site;
