Save this one for your next Dote day

Take the bus up onto the South Downs and walk along the rim of Devil's Dyke, a deep green valley with views over the Weald for miles.

Why it's a good date: Big skies and fresh air without needing a car: buses run up from town, more often in summer. Bring a picnic or finish at the pub at the top, and watch the paragliders if it's breezy.
