Nice selection of play equipment here. There’s also a skateboard ramp area next door. There’s a small paid car park with excellent coastal views.

Galley Hill is the the highest point along the coast between Eastbourne and Hastings in East Sussex. The view on top of Galley Hill is mesmerising and refreshing. There are at least five car parking spaces on the top overlooking the sea and along the road.

Galley Hill offers stunning views of the surrounding landscape and the English Channel, making it a popular spot for visitors and local residents. It's a place where you can connect with the deep history of the area while enjoying its natural beauty. Hastings can be seen from the here and part of Eastbourne is visible. There’s a small children’s playground. It is fenced up. There are slides, swings, seesaw. My kid enjoyed playing here. It is a safe playground suitable for younger kids. If you are visiting Bexhill, don’t miss out!

Great spot to come up and clear any cobwebs you have and enjoy the stunning views across the coast. Used to be a really good skatepark up here (which I spent many hours at). Hope that gets rebuilt. Nice little play area for the kids also. Always worth a visit when in Bexhill.
