10 reasons to visit East Sussex National Golf Resort and Spa

Perfect for a leisure break with colleagues, spa days with friends and mini breaks with someone you love; all just a hop, skip and a jump from London. East Sussex National Golf Resort and Spa sits by an area of outstanding natural beauty whilst offering a contemporary and spacious environment in which you can unwind and feel looked after. It is the ideal balance of all things and here are just 10 of the reasons we recommend it for a spa day or spa break in Sussex…

1.It’s great for groups. Incredibly spacious as a resort, there’s lots of space to relax and unwind together, whether it’s sipping tea with views of the golf course, playing a round or relaxing in the spa. 2.The location is beautiful. Natural beauty and human ingenuity combine to create acres of surrounding green landscape in a location that’s dominated by the golf course, making it superbly manicured, as well as 1000 acres of rolling Sussex countryside beyond. 3.There are two exceptional golf courses. These have staged two European Opens and played host to some of the world’s best players including Nick Faldo and Colin Montgomerie. 4.It’s welcoming to families. The hotel is elegant and sophisticated, but also welcoming, which makes it easy for visiting families to enjoy together. For example, children are welcome to use the pool and facilities, and have designated swimming times.  5.The restaurant is both award winning with an AA Rosette, and tranquil thanks to panoramic views of the golf course. 6.On that note, Sunday lunch at Hunnington’s Restaurant is reportedly the best in the county. 7.It’s easy to get to at an hour and a half by train or two hours by car from London. There’s plenty of parking and it’s also within easy reach of Brighton and Gatwick Airport.  8.The location in Uckfield is worth exploring. A pretty market town, it is situated on the southern boundary of the High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) with the Ashdown Forest nearby and the River Uck meandering through the lower part of the town. Popular attractions include the Bluebell Railway heritage steam train, which is particularly popular with families. 9.The spa offers modern facilities including a salt vapour room, relaxation room, aromatherapy room, monsoon shower and sauna as well as highly recommended treatments using the ESPA product line. 10.Events. The hotel often plays host to events such as organ concerts and Sunday afternoon dancing, which add a sense of occasion to an otherwise elegant and relaxed escape.
