Eastbourne

This time Susan is off to the UK's sunniest place: Eastbourne on the southeast coast.

It's an elegant resort and Susan begins at the beautiful golden pier. There's fun in the amusements and the Victorian Tea Rooms is a bustling spot for a traditional afternoon tea, Calman style - who needs jam anyway? She's then off to Sovereign Harbour for a rib boat to the iconic chalk sea cliff of Beachy Head, the highest in the UK. Nearby is Belle Tout lighthouse, now a unique B&B complete with 360-degree views from the lantern room.

Her next stop is the Eastbourne Miniature Steam Railway. A dream come true for any holidaymaker but especially for Susan who loves all things miniature and all things railway. She even gets to blow the whistle! Fish and chips are a must, and in Eastbourne Susan takes this seaside classic to another level with the vegan version - and finds it's a surprising taste sensation.

On the beach Susan meets up with singer and broadcaster Aled Jones who reminisces on his childhood growing up by the sea. Susan takes Aled to an ice cream parlour, but it's a treat with a twist –a seaside sundae competition. It's Susan versus Aled – chocolate sauce and squirty cream at the ready! Then, along the beach, Aled meets a group beach fishing. He learned to fish as a boy, and, whether he catches or not, it brings back memories, and proves a beautiful way to spend time by the sea.

Susan rounds off her trip with a visit to Eastbourne's band stand, billed as the busiest on earth. Listening to the Eastbourne Silver Band play Sussex by the Sea is the perfect end to her seaside holiday on the southeast coast- and she can't wait to return.
