This is - in my opinion - one of those places you have to visit before you die. Preferably on a…read morenice sunny day in the warm months. The pub is steeped in history and that is reflected in the well kept but near un-touched interior. They have some great ales on tap and all are served with a friendly smile and, if not too busy, are happy to talk through some of the pub's history. The garden here in the summer is fantastic. The views are breath-taking and they run a barbecue every Sunday which of course, does attract a huge crowd so either get there early or have some extra bags of patience with you. We head there without fail once a year with a big group of friends and spend the whole afternoon eating and drinking beer, I highly advise you to do the same!

We stayed at this hotel for a wedding last Saturday and it was nothing short of amazing. The hotel…read moreis luxurious and inviting and set in 312 Acres of stunning grounds in Ashdown Forest. The food was excellent at both the wedding reception and breakfast in the morning. I would recommend this hotel to anyone wanting a luxury romantic getaway or for people who would love to picnic and stroll around the grounds losing themselves from the daily grind! For brides looking for a venue, if you want to wow your guests this is definately the place to go. Everything would be perfect for your day.

An amazing driveway sweeps you down to this striking Georgian mansion. If you want to impress, this…read morewill impress !!! Don't feel disappointed as you pull into the car park the best is all at the back ! Built in 1722 it stands in 312 acres of lovely parkland & lakes, on the River Uck. There is a beautiful 13th centuary church, St Margaret the Queen, in the grounds as well as the local cricket club. Take time to look inside the church there are some lovely stained glass windows. Some of the rooms are not as large as you would imagine but are airy & comfortable some with a balcony. Looking at the brochure some of the suites are large & luxurious. It really doesn't matter when you are sweeping up the amazing staircases. The staff are welcoming, helpful & friendly. In the refurbished Orangery or fine Dining Room you can enjoy really excellent food with amazing wines and wonderful puddings. Then Breakfast is buffet style with a good selection to suit all tastes. There is a small gym, sauna & spa. The relaxed atmosphere of a by gone age, leisurely walks, good food, all in magnificent surroundings makes for a special break. It is a great place for Dining, Afternoon Tea, Short breaks and Weddings and is well positioned for other local attractions. Look out for offers as there are some good deals if you want to stay here. The menu & wines are well priced but we have found the cocktails & bar drinks sometimes a little expensive.

Its a running vineyard, cider making facility, sheep keeping, honey producing.....the list goes on. They also invite people to come and camp on their land at very reasonable rates (check website) which is an ideal place to stop for a few days with the kids as there's so much for them to do. Try their apple juice! Its the best I've ever tried.

This was our first visit to an English winery and our first tasting of English still wines so…read morenaturally were very excited to see and try them. The winery is located in a beautiful countryside town and/or is also just 15 minutes away from the train station. Upon arrival, you see the vineyards and cute tasting room. Chris and David, owners, meet you and take you in a tour and taste you through their wines. The three still wines they are serving are stunning, well structured, aromatic wines that you can drink, pair food with or age. They also pour some of their neighbors' sparkling wines, all of which are also top notch. The winery, vineyard, tasting room and owners are top notch and a must visit. You will not be let down.

I went to a fantastic wedding here last summer and have to say it was one of the best (in the UK)…read moreI've been to. You don't get that many places to enjoy an outdoor wedding (and the weather usually puts the stoppers on it anyway) but this venue offers both outdoor and indoor options. While my friend was running around like a headless chicken, I noticed the staff and managers were all so helpful with anything he needed and really helped him relax and enjoy the day. The grounds are fantastic with views of the South Downs and a huge lake at the bottom of the lawn. The food was excellent and served with plenty of good humoured waiters and waitresses who really made the day really special indeed.
