Just a few minutes’ walk from the sea, this gated development is home to a friendly community of over-45s, close to town amenities and with views of the surrounding countryside.

“I wanted to find somewhere close to the sea, I did look at normal homes but they were way out of my price range, so I just Googled static homes in Sussex and the park came up.

I enjoy living here, the main thing is that I feel safe, there’s a real community feel to the site, and everybody is very friendly and we all help each other. I feel like I’m on holiday!

The other reason I like living here is because the utility bills are very cheap compared to what I was paying in my bricks-and-mortar home back in Crawley.

The harbour is about a 15-minute walk from here and on a sunny day, you feel like you’re in another country. You’ve got the lovely little restaurants there, you’ve got the coffee shops, you’ve got the harbour with all the boats in, and you sit there, and you think am I really in Eastbourne or am I somewhere abroad!

I would recommend it to anybody who wants a nice and quiet way of life because that’s what I found here, and I love it.
