If you're dreaming of a summer escape filled with fresh air, stunning scenery, and a perfect blend of relaxation and adventure, a countryside holiday is just what you need. Nestled in the heart of the Ashdown Forest, Ashdown Park offers an unforgettable setting for both romantic getaways and fun-filled family breaks in the south east of England.
Sussex Staycation for Couples
Looking to escape the everyday routine and enjoy some sunny days outside of the office? Take a trip to the Sussex countryside, where our home becomes yours. Check in to your accommodation featuring comfortable beds and breathtaking views of the Ashdown Forest, before enjoying a refreshing beverage in the cocktail bar and snooker room. An afternoon picnic allows you to fully relax in the sunshine, in your favourite spot of the grounds, or book a treatment in the luxurious spa, where our swimming pool and jacuzzi complete a day of rest. Our favourite thing to do on a romantic retreat? Take an early morning stroll around the estate; this is the best time of day to see our resident deer.
Family Adventures
Our 186-acre estate isn’t just for couples; it’s also a fantastic destination for families, especially during the school holidays. Our family rooms can accommodate cots or sofa beds, making us the perfect base for your adventure. There is plenty on offer to keep little ones entertained, from trails around the grounds, garden games, wildlife spotting, and dedicated swim (or splash) times in the pool. There’s also a host of family-friendly attractions nearby, including the enchanting Pooh Corner, home of Winnie the Pooh, and the Bluebell Railway, where you can hop aboard a steam train and enjoy the views. A must-do on your visit? Borrow equipment from our Country Club for a friendly game of tennis or golf.
Booking your Escape
The best part? This summer, Ashdown Park Hotel is giving you even more reason to book a longer stay. With our exclusive summer offer, you can enjoy up to 20% off your booking when you extend your countryside break. It’s the perfect excuse to take a little extra time to relax, explore, and make the most of everything this magical location has to offer.
Whether you’re soaking up the serenity with a spa treatment, enjoying quality time with the kids in nature, or simply savouring the beauty of the Sussex countryside, we have all the ingredients for a memorable summer holiday.
