Bailiffscourt

Set within 35 acres of private parkland, just a short stroll from Climping Beach on the Sussex coast, Bailiffscourt is a wonderfully romantic country house hotel with all the character of a medieval manor. Think mullioned windows, tapestry-hung walls, roaring log fires and deep sofas made for lingering. Beyond the house, beautiful gardens and open grounds invite exploration, with dogs and families every bit as welcome as those seeking a peaceful escape.

The elegant Tapestry Restaurant is at the heart of the dining experience, with seasonal menus drawing on the rich produce of Sussex and combining traditional British cooking with a more contemporary touch. The intimate lounges are equally inviting for a leisurely lunch or traditional afternoon tea, while in warmer weather the rose-clad courtyard and gardens provide a particularly lovely setting for dining outdoors.

Few places capture the romance of the English country house quite like Bailiffscourt, particularly with the sea just moments away.

Membership benefits are also available in sister properties Ockenden Manor Hotel Restaurant, The Spread Eagle Hotel & Restaurant and The Black Horse.
