A historical hidden treasure in West Sussex. The Amberley Castle offers luxurious accommodations, superlative cuisine, and exquisite grounds. For those seeking a luxurious stay in an historical castle. The Amberley Castle Hotel dates back 900-plus years, and many medieval features are still intact: a high curtain wall flanked by a twin-tower gatehouse, a garderode tower with gun loops. At midnight watch the impressive two-ton oak Portcullis being lowered for the night.

The 19 luxurious rooms and suites are furnished with antiques and fine fabrics, and all have en-suite whirlpool baths. The superlative service includes little touches in your room like fresh fruit and homemade biscuits.

If you're hungry for more than biscuits, the Castle has one of the finest restaurants in West Sussex. Below the 12th-century barrel-vaulted ceiling, dine on imaginative gastronomic dishes.

Hosting a meeting? Not to worry - the Amberley has hosted royalty and politicians through its history. Stroll through the formal gardens, or tee off at the 18-hole putting course - it's designed by noted golf architect Weller Design.
