Set on the outskirts of Midhurst in East Sussex, this top quality rural hotel is a mini oasis of…read morerelaxing luxury. Comprising of an old manor house which has been kept authentic and tasteful, a health spa offering treatments, swimming pool and Jacuzzi, and a world class restaurant and gorgeous old country bar with huge leather sofas and a moose head on the wall, there is no better place for getting away from it all within an hour of London. The rooms themselves are antique-cool, with a fresh, clean and traditional yet funky feel. The food in the restaurant is simply outstanding: melting smoked salmon and beer-battered oyster or hearty smoked ham and haddock fish-cake with a poached egg and béarnaise for starters, ranging to delicate lemon sole and rich moist calf's liver for mains. Everything is so well-cooked and taken from the finest local produce. If you're looking for that ultimate relaxing weekend break, treat yourself. You won't be disappointed.

Having had a rather hearty full English breakfast in Chichester, my girlfriend & I decided to skip…read morelunch & go for broke with an "full English" afternoon tea in Midhurst after visiting the Cowdray ruins earlier. OK, it wasn't cheap - we went for the cream tea with extra cake & biscuits for £19.50 for the 2 of us. We could have gone elsewhere & saved a bit but to hell with the expense - we were on holiday! The hotel is wonderful with a grand atmosphere. We sat out in the conservatory & awaited the arrival of out tea. 15 mins later & 4 scones, a large bowl of clotted cream, 4 mini pots of Tiptree Raspberry jam, 2 flat round shortbreads, 2 round chocolate biscuits, 2 pieces of date cake, a large pot of tea, extra water, milk & assorted sugar cubes were placed on a large tray before us! The scones & biscuits were obviously fresh & by the time it came to the biscuits, we were both moving a little slower! There was also a wedding reception taking place. I walked past where the staff were putting the finishing touches on the deserts with pride & care. Leilah walked past earlier & said that the beef looked & smelt spectacular. Well worth the money!

This is a pleasant place to be!!! Midhurst is one of our favourite spots in Sussex, especially for…read moreeating out. There is so much going on..polo, golf and just plain soaking up the atmosphere here. Plenty of free parking. Don't forget to have a look at Cowdray Hall!!!

Went on Heritage Day so was free to enter. Access is about 0.5k from the main car park & bus stand…read morealong a straight path (The Causeway) across marshy grassland. This early Tudor courtier's estate & house is or more accurately, was palatial or lets just settle on huge! A very large inner gatehouse with an enormous courtyard then main house beyond. There was an exhibition of the 2nd World War from a Naval perspective in the main cellar which had a rather fine vaulted roof, the Buck Hall & chapel were open to the elements but the hexagonal Kitchen Tower had been partially restored with an open hearth fire with Tudor cooking being demonstrated. The kitchen could also be viewed from half way up the spiral stairs that lead to the roof. You get a great view of the ruins & the adjacent Polo park. The tops of the walls were protected by red tiles which made them look a bit odd but will probably keep frost damage to a minimum - just an unsympathetic colour when seen from above. There is a visitor Centre with toilets & a formal garden beyond. I think tea & cakes were also available. The house was built in 1520-29 & was partially destroyed by fire in 1793.
