Hotels near Wakehurst Place, Ardingly

1. Incredibly beautiful quiet countryside setting an hour from London Heathrow. It is an old manor set amongst meadows and woodlands, exquisitely maintained, with gorgeous gardens of produce and romantic walkways. 2. The service was impeccable (hard to find these days), without a single flaw. The motto seemed to be "your wish is our command". "Izzy" at reception was very proactive in making sure we had the massage we requested on very short notice on arrival, kudos to her. Laundry would be delivered same-day at reasonable prices. Restaurant service was white table cloth and professional. Room service arrived at the requested time, hot and as requested. The Do Not Disturb sign was honored. 3. The multi-course fine dining experience was perfect , with brilliant service and a very helpful sommelier who assisted in navigating the massive wine list. Breakfast juices were fresh-squeezed and delicious. 4. Our upper floor spacious room ("Pear"), had a deep, copper-coated tub and separate shower, a high ceiling, and a very comfortable bed, mini-bar, adequate hanging space and drawers including bedside drawers. I was happy that key information about Gravetye for guests did not require use of a QR code, but was instead printed and accessible, the old-fashioned way. 5. Hosts provided a pre-printed list of five local walks one could do straight from Gravetye, without having to drive.

the staff were exceptionally helpful and friendly. the restaurant staff were amazing. it’s beautifully designed and well furnished. never been in a hotel with such happy, helpful employees

Jade in the restaurant was amazing, she was so fun and bubbly and made our dining experience an enjoyable one!

The staff at the front desk was extremely helpful. (I believe one of them was "Katryna" and I don't remember the other lady's name, but they were wonderful.) They helped me secure a taxi to the airport. They also helped me with all the modern gadgets in the room (I didn't know how to turn on the lights!!!) Breakfast was excellent. I had dinner in your restaurant too and it was also very good.

I liked the characteristics of the building as it looked like it had some stories to tell and one of the staff was very friendly and kind enough to give be a brief history of the building.

Rooms well designed and decorated.
