Windward is in a fabulously relaxing village yet only minutes into Brighton town centre. Brighton is a fascinating town which is extremely fashionable yet also quirky at the same time. The Lanes area is made up of cobbled streets with tiny 'tardis style' shops selling just about anything you can think of. The restaurant and cafe scene is on a par with London and culture just oozes from every theatre and gallery.
At the same time, Brighton is a beach resort with people swimming and sunbathing and it also has the largest Marina in the UK. You can walk down to the Marina from Windward along the coastal path and find plenty going on. There are great places to eat out next to the yachts, shopping, nightclubs, a casino, bowling, cinema and frequent organised events such as speed-boat racing, comedy week etc.
Going a bit further afield, you can drive to historic Lewes and Tunbridge Wells, to the opera at Glyndebourne or over to Thorpe Park or Drusillas to thrill the children.
