Buxted Park Hotel

Uckfield, East Sussex

Yes. Dogs can stay in selected rooms, up to 2 dogs per room.

A Palladian mansion in 312 acres near Uckfield, where two dogs can share a selected room and the grounds, gardens and woodlands are open to them.

Buxted Park sits in 312 acres of parkland on the edge of the Ashdown Forest, a Grade II listed Palladian mansion built in 1722 and run now as a country hotel where Georgian styling meets modern comfort. What a dog friendly hotel offers here is the land: dogs are welcome across the grounds, gardens and woodlands, the hotel asking that you clear up behind them.

Some of the 43 bedrooms are kept back for guests with a dog, and a room will take two of them. Treats sit waiting on arrival, and giving the breed and the name in advance is what makes the welcome a personal one. Stays with a dog should be booked directly with the reservations team, as the website cannot guarantee them, and a lead is asked for in the hotel's public areas.

The Orangery Restaurant holds two AA rosettes and opens out over the hotel gardens, with afternoon tea served there or alfresco on the terrace, and the Crystal Bar runs from morning coffee and elevenses through to evening cocktails under its chandeliers. Where the dog may eat the hotel doesn't state, so put that question to the reservations team as well.

Suites come with chandeliers, original fireplaces, roll top baths and marble, while the ground floor rooms have french doors onto a bijou terrace set on the manicured lawns. Dogs get the 312 acres, and Wildpack's Ashdown Forest: King's Standing Circular is 4.7 miles away, with Cuckmere Haven, the nearest beach we list, 15.4 miles off.
