The timber framed barn-style architecture that houses the spa at Bailiffscourt is an elegant, understated surround for one of the most picturesque spas in Sussex. Set against contrasting green oak, polished limestone interiors and long glass windows that bring the outside in, facilities include indoor and outdoor pools, state-of-the-art gym, tennis courts and relaxation areas.
Inspired by a Mediterranean lifestyle, the spa uses organic Temple Spa products in a range of treatments that include full body treatments, massages, facials, manicures and pedicures.
The 39 bedrooms are spread across the medieval house that is the main body of the hotel and a series of other buildings including the Moat House and The Oaks which overlook the old moat and the fields beyond and are home to a free-wandering peacock.
The gothic mullioned windows and tapestry-like interiors leave you with the impression of a long and regal history – though it was actually built in 1927. The dining room under the direction of Head Chef Russell Williams serves modern English cuisine while the rose-clad courtyard provides an enchanting setting for afternoon tea in the summertime. Of course the hotel’s location close to the sea is an undeniable draw-card, and provides the perfect backdrop for such a relaxing setting.
Key Features:
- Medieval style architecture
- Close to the sea
- Romantic niches to sit in including a rose-filled courtyard in summer
- Organic spa products
- Light and airy spa in barn-style setting
- Heated outdoor infinity pool
