Saint Margaret's at Cliffe Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)

Where France meets England - Dover 🇫🇷🇬🇧

What if I told you I went somewhere beautiful in England and, as I was walking around admiring the beauty, I got a message from my phone provider reading 'Welcome to France'. 🤫 This, my friends, is where France meets England; where you are on French-English grounds - the white cliffs of Dover, an area of outstanding natural beauty in Kent. There isn't too much to do around here except maybe wave at France in the very visible distance across the ocean. Admire the white cliffs in all their magnificent beauty. Breathe in the fresh salty air and soak in the sunshine (can you believe these pictures were taken in winter?!). #tripblazers

Most of the pictures you have posted on here are NOT of the White Cliffs Of Dover. They are in fact, of the Seven Sisters, near Brighton, which is part of the South Downs National Park, and about 80 miles away from Dover!

National Geographic didn't lie to me! The end of the land is too shocking!

It's the ceiling of British landscapes in my mind. Here are some travel tips for the White Cliffs. 🌊 Itinerary: ◾️D1: London-Eastbourne-White Cliffs 👉🏻 Take a bus from Eastbourne to Beachy Head to start hiking, walk up 100 meters from Belle Tout and then look back, this is the best photo spot! If you're not very fit, you can take a bus from here to the next stop. 👉🏻 From Birling Gap station, walk up through the parking lot to reach the best spot to view the Seven Sisters, and take the bus back from here as well. ◾️D2: Eastbourne- Cuckmere Haven- Lewes-Brighton 👉🏻 Take a taxi in the morning to Cuckmere Haven, walk down from the parking lot to see the seaside house from 'Atonement' where the protagonists dreamed of living. To the left of the house, you can reach the beach used in the movie. 👉🏻 Arrive in Lewes at noon, a treasure town I really like! The town has a unique feel with its hillside construction, and walking up the road leads to an ancient castle. There are many antique shops in town where you can find nice second-hand items. 👉🏻 Arrive in Brighton before sunset, you definitely can't miss the seaside sunset here. ◾️D3: Brighton-London 👉🏻 Go for a Citywalk in Brighton: The Lane→Kensinton Gardens→Queens Rd→West St 👉🏻 Take the train back to London in the afternoon. . 🌊 Transportation tips: ◾️ Take the train from London Victoria station to Eastbourne station ◾️ After arriving, navigate to Eastbourne Pier and take the White Cliffs sightseeing circular bus ◾️ Buy a ticket on the bus, keep the receipt, and use it to ride any time within the day. ◾️ Bus operation times vary by season, so pay attention to the schedule. ◾️ Tickets are 10 pounds, with a student discount of 20%. . 🌊 Photography tips: ❶ Beachy Head The highest point of the White Cliffs and the highest coastal cliff in the UK, where you can overlook the red and white lighthouse, the light is best in the evening. ❷ Belle Tout The section from Beachy Head to Belle Tout has larger undulations, where you can capture the staggered White Cliffs, winding lawns, and lighthouse. This is my favorite part of the White Cliffs scenery. Walk about 100 meters towards Belle Tout lighthouse, and looking back, you can take a cover photo! ❸ Seven Sisters White Cliffs There are 7 consecutive white cliffs here, which is the location for Jay Chou's music video and also a great spot to watch the sunset. ❹ Cuckmere Haven The cliffside by the sea where the protagonists of the movie 'Atonement' walked and the little house they dreamed of living in is here, a must-visit for movie fans!
