In the heart of Sussex, this magnificent country house hotel is set in 312 acres of private grounds and parkland, yet conveniently close to Gatwick, Brighton & Hove. High ceilings and original features such as open fireplaces are featured in the Buxted Park bedrooms, in addition to 4-poster beds and grand bathrooms. Carefully designed to blend Georgian styling with today's more contemporary comforts. Fine dining can be enjoyed in the 2 AA rosette restaurant, and a continental breakfast can also be provided. Take advantage of the beautiful surroundings and enjoy a leisurely picnic or fish in our 3 peaceful lakes. Take a stroll to Ashdown Forest where AA Milne found inspiration for Winnie the Pooh.

Over the years, this luxury East Sussex hotel has played host to movers and shakers including William Wordsworth, Winston Churchill and Marlon Brando. Now you can see what attracted the great and the good as you explore this country retreat’s many rooms, stroll in the gardens or let the evening unravel as it may in the restaurant. The features of this hotel make it perfect for weekend breaks in Sussex, rest and relaxation, and simply enjoying the beautiful countryside. The Grade II listed Palladian mansion, set in the finest parkland, is a unique backdrop for the most perfect of wedding venues.
