Enjoy a day of stunning sights with this perfect pairing: a visit to the beautiful Borde Hill Gardens and a thrilling journey on Brighton’s iconic i360! First, take to the skies on the Brighton i360 — the world’s only fully enclosed observation pod, created by the architects behind the London Eye, Marks Barfield. Glide gently up to 450ft above the vibrant Brighton seafront in a sleek, futuristic glass pod. Your 30-minute journey offers incredible 360-degree views of Brighton, Hove, the South Downs, and beyond — all from the comfort of a spacious, air-conditioned pod with bench seating and plenty of room to move around. Once back on solid ground, you can explore the free exhibition on how the i360 was built, browse locally made gifts in the beachside shop, or enjoy a drink or bite to eat at the onsite restaurant, offering seaside classics, coffees, and even cocktails. Your adventure continues with entry to the stunning Borde Hill Gardens, located near Haywards Heath, about a 45-minute drive from Brighton. Famous for its 'living garden rooms,' Borde Hill is a haven of rare plants, vibrant blooms, and peaceful lawns — all set against the breathtaking backdrop of the Sussex High Weald. This combined package blends cutting-edge British design with natural beauty, offering a memorable day out full of inspiring sights and tranquil spaces.
