Nestled beside the River Arun at the foot of the South Downs, Amberley Castle is a 900-year-old fortress turned countryside retreat–one of the oldest castles in the United Kingdom reimagined as a hotel. Behind its portcullis and ancient battlements lies a world of timeless charm, where beautifully designed rooms, elegant lounges and manicured gardens create a sense of serene escape. Guests can enjoy croquet, tennis or a gentle stroll through grounds wrapped in centuries of history. With interiors curated by the Brownsword family and cuisine crafted with seasonal, locally sourced ingredients, Amberley Castle seamlessly blends medieval grandeur with modern comfort, offering a stay that is as indulgent as it is unforgettable.

Gravetye Manor is a truly enchanting place; both close to the pleasures of London, yet far from its hustle and bustle. This beautiful Elizabethan manor sits proudly amongst the winding pathways and abundant flower beds in the English natural and wild gardens created by William Robinson, the father of the English flower garden and a former owner of the estate. This quintessential English country house’s charm is evident in the wood-panelled sitting rooms with crackling log fires. All year round, the sweeping countryside views, first-class cuisine and attentive yet unobtrusive service ensure an unforgettable experience.
