View Full Version : Landing site close to Eastbourne, East Sussex ?
Hi:
I need to make a visit to Eastbourne and I'm looking for a resonablyy close landing site.
Best so far seems to be Boship Farm Hotel near Hailsham - short taxi ride away from the town centre.
Any experience of using this site? Easy/difficult approach etc, or any suggestions for a better location?
All help gratefully received.
TIA

I think I can give you an alternative to the Boship. They are about the same distance from the sea front (9 miles) if you need it.
Try the White Lodge Country House Hotel, Sloe Lane, Alfriston, BN26 5UR, they have helo landing facilities
Their Number is 01323 870265
Hope that helps

You want the Model Railway site, approx one mile North East of the Town Centre. The owner Mike and his good lady like to see helis there.
Elite helis have done pleasure flying there.
