to get started.

Loved the spa and location is stunning. The old section of the manor is very beautiful also.

Thomas, United Kingdom

Bucolic setting in quaint little village. Good walks nearby. Waiting staff were friendly, and food was good quality.

Thomas, United Kingdom

The cooked breakfast was very nice on both mornings and the restaurant dinner, although expensive as a Michelin restaurant, was absolutely delicious.

Dylan, United Kingdom

The location of the Manor is very convenient, especially when travelling without a car given its close proximity to London. It is quiet and serene with cows grazing in the fields. The Spa (pool, steamroom, hot tub) were very enjoyable to use, the extra touches like the flip flops, robes, ice chips and the fruit infused water were lovely too. The Junior Suite was spacious but I would have expected that for a Junior Suite. The room was also well appointed. The tasting menu dinner, including the canapes were a visual feast and very delicious. Most importantly, our waiter/sommelier (young local man from Haywards Heath) was very enthusiastic and engaging in taking us through the wine pairings for our meal.

Shadowfax77, United Kingdom

The house has style, the terrace in front of the nicely decorated restaurant overlooks the garden and makes you feel relaxed at once. The second room that we got on our special demand was very comfortable with a view to the garden. Dinner at the restaurant was really excellent, and so was the wine list with very good recommendations and appropriate prices. And nobody seemed annoyed about some late arrivals for breakfast. Very friendly restaurant service staff. Good place to go and explore some of the beautiful gardens in West Sussex.

Lovely place, lovely people. Made our wedding anniversary very special

Michael, United Kingdom

Our room was just wonderful with views of the garden and a lovely bathroom. You felt as if you were staying in someones home and you were not in a hotel. I would have liked to stay longer. The spa was also lovely with plenty of room with a relaxed atmosphere and friendly staff.

Mary, United Kingdom

Beautiful hotel with stunning views and beautiful grounds.

Stuart, United Kingdom

The hotel is situated in a beautiful quiet village and set back in lovely grounds. I like the mixture of the old house and the new spa facilities. Also the fact that we only had to go downstairs to our evening meal.

Adam, United Kingdom

Excellent staff and service, spa was lovely. There was a large garden to one side of the hotel, super for exercising the dog throwing balls etc before breakfast, without interrupting other guests.

Gillian, United Kingdom

What Travelers Love About This Location

“The bed was unbelievably comfortable.”

Camilla

Spain

“Charming manor hotel in chocolate box village of Cuckfield. Room so comfortable, warm and the lady on reception lovely and helpful. The spa is excellent - I have reviewed many and would really rate the spa as excellent.”

Collette

United Kingdom

“There was nothing to fault about my whole trip. The staff couldn't have been friendlier or more welcoming. The spa treatments (my mum, sister and I had massages) were incredible, the food outstanding, and the rooms extremely comfortable. I had a very good nights sleep, and was very impressed by how nicely everything was decorated. The views from my windows were beautiful, and helped make our trip a nice escape from the city. The nearby town is cute and worth a look, but if you want to stay in the house and read your book that's fine as well. I can't wait to go back.”

“Nice hotel, but too expensive for what it is”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Deluxe Double Room
- • Stayed 1 night
눉Absolutely nothing wrong with this place, except it's hugely overpriced. For what they charge service, amenities and rooms should all be at a far higher standard. Would only go back if they dropped the room price down to around £150 (max 200) per night.
눇Bucolic setting in quaint little village. Good walks nearby. Waiting staff were friendly, and food was good quality.

“Relaxing posh little country side spa”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Standard Double Room
- • Stayed 1 night
눉The fireplace was only lit for a short time- keep that fire going...
눇Welcoming reception, cosy room with lovely curtains and beautiful china, good quality tea and complimentary water; room well furnished, solid wood, old and beautiful furniture; lots of character. I like the contrast between the very traditional English hotel and the modern Spa which is contemporary in its architecture. The food was amazing in the restaurant where we had dinner even if expensive; the wine was excellent and the waiter very knowledgable and helpful in choosing the wine. One needed help as it was an extensive menu! The massage was very good indeed, great professional treatment. I would recommend the place, my wife and I went to celebrate our anniversary, we felt welcomed as a lesbian couple, the place felt gay friendly. It's a posh place for a special occasion...I think a little bit overpriced, but England is super expensive and this is very near London. Highlight was the very warm jacuzzi and pool outdoors- it was a grey rainy day and we could swim outside- that was worth every penny

“Lacking value for money”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Junior Suite
- • Stayed 2 nights
눉It was not clear from the Booking.com description of the property that the Manor house is 1 property and the Spa is a separate new property not connected to the Manor house and a walk down the road. We had anticipated staying in an old English country manor so was a little surprised when we were told that our Junior Suite was not even in the Manor building. From the main Ockenden website - this is noted, but again, it does imply that the spa is also in a Manor building or outbuilding, but instead it is a brand new build. The reception at the Manor is a mish-mash of an open office space on the left of the entrance as well as a desk and nook on the right of the entrance, making the reception area a little disorganised and not the first impression you expect for the Manor. We had to also go to the Spa building to get the key to the Junios Suite, rather than receiving our key from the Main Manor house. The process lacked finesse. The Spa bulilding foyer and walkway to the rooms was quite heated, probably from the heat eminating from the steam room and sauna below. The young man that led us to our room was delightfully pleasant but seemed to have dirty parachute tracksuit pants on - which took a little away from the professional presentation of the room. On Saturday, we had left our room from around 10am to go to a wine tasting and returned to the room around 2pm, only to find, despite having asked for our room to be made up, that it had not been made yet. As a result, we did not have a top up of coffee or tea. There were only 2 biscuits in the jar in the room when we checked in - it too did not look like it had been topped up to begin with. We did not get new towels as the room had not been made up - as a result when we showered before going to dinner, we had to use the existing towels. It appeared that our room was eventually made up when we were out at dinner, but even then, the bin in the main room was not emptied, neither were the smaller bins in the bathrooms.
눇The location of the Manor is very convenient, especially when travelling without a car given its close proximity to London. It is quiet and serene with cows grazing in the fields. The Spa (pool, steamroom, hot tub) were very enjoyable to use, the extra touches like the flip flops, robes, ice chips and the fruit infused water were lovely too. The Junior Suite was spacious but I would have expected that for a Junior Suite. The room was also well appointed. The tasting menu dinner, including the canapes were a visual feast and very delicious. Most importantly, our waiter/sommelier (young local man from Haywards Heath) was very enthusiastic and engaging in taking us through the wine pairings for our meal.

눉Pleased it was included. Considering cost of rooms and hotel very disappointing. Poor choice and cooked breakfast Luke warm and black pudding not cooked. Ordered cheese and biscuits was very disappointing ting prices of cheese £12.95 6 biscuits 2 bits of bread but not enough cheese to put on. Just pleased we ate out as it was £65 ahead for a 3 course shocking if you look at cheese and biscuit at over £12 pp. how can they do that

“Nice place with lovely garden and excellent restaurant - if you get the right room”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Superior Double Room
- • Stayed 3 nights
눉Our first room called "Elizabeth" which looked romantic at first sight but seems to be the oldest and least comfortable room of all the house, especially regarding the bathroom. We don't know why they gave us this room. We had booked quite early, so this couldn't have been the problem. We do hope that it was not because we did the booking through Booking.com and not directly with the hotel. As told above, after one rather uncomfortable night the staff managed to find us a far better room and bathroom with modern facilities and everything we needed. Why not just from the beginning ?
눇The house has style, the terrace in front of the nicely decorated restaurant overlooks the garden and makes you feel relaxed at once. The second room that we got on our special demand was very comfortable with a view to the garden. Dinner at the restaurant was really excellent, and so was the wine list with very good recommendations and appropriate prices. And nobody seemed annoyed about some late arrivals for breakfast. Very friendly restaurant service staff. Good place to go and explore some of the beautiful gardens in West Sussex.
