The feel

Nestled in 1,100 acres of beautiful East Sussex countryside lies East Sussex National, a stunning 4 star resort where your vision of your dream wedding can become a reality. Renowned for our excellent service, delicious food and superb facilities, we provide a personal touch to each and every wedding. We hold a civil ceremony licence, so you can enjoy your special day, from beginning to end, all under one roof. As well as a variety of stunning rooms for both ceremony and reception, we have a beautiful outdoor gazebo for those warm summer days. Why not enjoy a Champagne reception or barbecue in our picturesque gardens. However you wish to enjoy your big day, our dedicated and professional team will make sure your wedding is truly magical.

We have three rooms which are licensed for civil ceremonies: the Pavilion, with sweeping panoramic views of the grounds, the Lynx Suite, ideal for intimate weddings, and the Lynx Roundall, a striking round room with beautiful high ceilings. For outdoor weddings, we have our stunning outdoor gazebo, the Birdcage, available, located on our beautiful lawns

We boast an outstanding reputation for the quality of our catering, with 2 AA rosettes. We pride ourselves on being able to cater for all tastes, evident in our extensive menu selector. Whether it is a wedding breakfast for 300 or a more intimate blessing for close family and friends, our attention to detail is second to none.

As the happy couple, you can relax and unwind in one of our gorgeous bridal suites. We also offer preferential rates for your guests. While you are with us, why not indulge in one of the many treatments in our fantastic spa; feel pampered with a manicure, massage or rhassoul mud treatment. Enjoy our 20m pool with sauna, steam room and Jacuzzi or, if you’re feeling more energetic, try the well-equipped gym or perhaps a round of golf on one of our esteemed championship courses.

East Sussex National offers many wonderful photo opportunities, both for the happy couple and the full wedding party. Take a ride in a golf buggy to our lakes, pose with Guy the gorilla, or enjoy the many lovely spots around the hotel.
