4-star Tudor hotel with award-winning spa set in 9 acres of West Sussex countryside

Spa & Wellness

The spa at Ockenden Manor is set within a 19th-century walled garden and offers an indoor swimming pool that flows into an outdoor heated pool. Guests have access to an Isopod floatation tank, a steam room, a sauna, and a hot tub with two Jacuzzis. The spa also provides individual and joint wellness retreat memberships for exclusive access to all facilities including a fitness centre and yoga classes.

Rooms & Accommodation

Each of the hotel's guest rooms is individually furnished and some include four-poster beds. The spa suites offer direct access to the spa, a terrace with views over the countryside, and a separate seating area. All rooms have free Wi-Fi and satellite TV, while the historic Tudor building provides a unique character with oak-panelled lounges and a cosy bar.

Dining

The hotel restaurant overlooks the 9 acres of gardens and sources ingredients locally for its menus. Guests can book afternoon tea served in the library or a three-course dinner with a selection of estate-grown wines. Breakfast is cooked fresh to order and included in the room rate, with a choice of traditional cooked dishes and continental options.

Ockenden Manor is a 10-minute drive from Haywards Heath station, which offers connections to London and Brighton in under an hour. The hotel is set near the South Downs National Park, Borde Hill Garden, and Wakehurst Place, all accessible by walking or bike tours. Guests can also use the hotel's golf course or explore the picturesque countryside walks directly from the property.

Family & Pets

The hotel welcomes dogs throughout the property and provides pet baskets and bowls upon request. Families are offered dedicated swim times in the spa pool and board games for children in the lounge. Kids' meals are available from the restaurant menu, and the property's 9 acres of gardens provide space for outdoor play.

“My recent exploration suggests Ockenden Manor Hotel & Spa is a place guests genuinely wish to return to, particularly for its celebrated spa treatments and the warm, professional attentiveness of its staff across all departments. The dining experience, from intricately prepared dinners to a satisfying breakfast, is consistently highlighted, as are the well-maintained spa facilities, including its appealing pools and jacuzzis. It appears to be a property where thoughtful upgrades and genuine hospitality create an atmosphere conducive to a thoroughly relaxing escape.”
