In 1973, Paul McCartney bought a 160-acre farm, dubbed Blossom Wood Farm, located near Rye in East Sussex.
This is where the musician isolated during the coronavirus pandemic in 2021 with his daughter Mary and her family, and is where he once lived with his late wife Linda and raised his children.
He apparently was looking to buy in Sussex for a few years:
Back in the late sixties Paul and Linda very nearly bought my Grandparents farm in Surrey. They both visited numerous times and used to take the horses out across the fields. On one such occasion Paul turned up with an acoustic guitar and offered to sing a song for those present, my grandmother chose Eleanor Rigby, and Paul sat on the kitchen stool and sang this song.
